Early morning in the southeastern corner of the duchy. This area was surrounded by mountains and cliffs that looked over the severe floodplains at the very southern end of Chemois.
Autumn was always so brief in this area of the kingdom, which was why Irene and Felix felt the need to rush through the duchy in hopes that the people would feel comforted, even though they would have a brief amount of time at each place.
However, they experienced rain after seeing Stanley at a township in the south central region, and when the sun finally came out to greet them, it felt like a false summer had returned to them.
Both knights rode with their cloaks hanging behind them. Underneath the silvery armor they wore, they were both overheating. Because of this, Irene opted to take off her helmet entirely, and it rested between her thighs so there was no way of it coming loose and being lost to the hoofbeats on the ground as they went north from where they were.
