A journey begins with the first step, and if you don't keep your head, you never know just where you will find yourself. You must always be prepared to move at the slightest sounds. Song the pegasus is quick to move as she senses danger, and Lief moves to guard Noemi, who is caught off guard and begins to lose her balance.

Not all knights wear shining armor, some prefer work-worn leather.
Not all heroes stand in the light, some are content protecting others from the shadows.
