Given that there wasn’t much time to stay and entertain the royal princesses in Desrochers due to the short travel time expectations, Collin organized himself in a different manner. After some correspondence to and from the royal herald, they agreed to meet up at Lander’s Pass where he and his family would rendezvous with the princesses and continue their journey through the mountains towards Vanderhall.
The Romanovs and Delacroixs had a mutual relationship in regards to keeping the wild mountain tribes delegated to specific parts. Specifically the Romanovs preferred that they all stayed in the Desrochers Mountains, but there had been times when that intent didn’t always happen. The two neighboring families bonded Felicia and Emery to solidify treaties written for years between the two of them as a renegotiated deal generation after generation. Collin was aware of the multiple change-overs in leadership of Vasile, unfortunately he knew nothing about the young man that now sat at the helm of the independent region that buffered the royal family and the exiled duchy. This would be a learning experience for him as well, and as some of his children followed along by carriage, the rest kept their paces with him on horseback.
The caravan Collin brought with him were mostly scouts and marksmen, figuring that the royal family was likely to bring the soldiers and part of the royal army with them no doubt. Collin brought the eyes and the brains to the table with his sufficient numbers. When they hit up Lander’s Pass the royal caravan had not yet arrived. It would be a good time to take a break and rest us with a quick meal while they waited. Ariel and Atalie were already playing hide and seek nearby as one of the scouts cooked up a quick stew that would help satiate everyone’s stomachs before the long journey ahead of them.
It wasn’t long when a scout came up to Collin and reported, “They’re here, Your Grace. We see their colors about an hour in the distance.”
“Good. Then let’s break camp and prepare to move forward for when they arrive.” He replied. The scout saluted and immediately went to work giving orders to the rest of the men. As Ariel came shrieking past Collin reached down and snagged her into his arms. “Gotcha!”
“Ahh! Daddy!” The youngest giggled wildly as he reduced her to the ground from being tickled all over the place. But before she could roll herself too far into the dirt he lifted her up onto his shoulders and headed back to the carriage that she was traveling in.
