'Two weeks! No wonder the Duke said the quickest time the expedition could take is one month. Even if we consider only the travel time, going there and back again would already last one month. Considering the time needed to explore the ruins, the process would take a longer time.' Jack mused.
"That is also if we all use mounts," Captain Salem added.
"Mounts? What if I don't have any?" Jack said.
"You can purchase a mount easily near the city gate," Commander Quintus told him.
The Duke was much more accommodating, "Don't worry, you will be provided one on our departing day."
"Oh, that's good then," Jack said, completely not ashamed of being a miser.
"So when are we heading out exactly?" He asked.
"Two days from now in the morning. You can use today and tomorrow for whatever preparations you would need. The army will gather at the north gate, but I would like you to join me at my mansion here before we head out to the gate. Please be on time."
