They're coming as part of a payment to the undead - to keep them out of Taravast. We intend to ride them down and temporarily incapacitate their escorts, take the hostages and get away. The two of them - Eleven and Shen Qingqiu will be taken somewhere immediately for safety and the rest of us will return to Taravast, get the horses back to where they belong, and act as though we were there the whole time.

[ She watched Rufus intently, wondering if he would elect to lend his assistance or not.

Lily wasn't certain how close he was with the Merchant, but if he was a new arrival (and she was guessing he was) she had to surmise they weren't that close and leave the matter for later. ]

If you don't wish to help, you can ride along anyway - we'll return to Tarvast after we save our friends, just don't interfere if you aren't going to lend a hand.

[ Which, while perhaps bluntly articulated sounded very fair to Lily. He would be safe regardless of what he chose. ]

[Rufus met her gaze, his expression thoughtful before smiling and shaking his head.

If riding a horse was anything like a chocobo even he had to admit that would be a bad idea, especially given the last time he had gone riding. He still insists the bird started it.]

Riding may be a bit beyond me at the moment so I will have to pass but you will have to tell me how effective the bombs are if you use them. None of the bombs I've seen resemble these.

But if you need assistance once you get back, feel free to contact me.

[She may seem young but he thinks she seems fairly competent, he's curious to see what exactly she's capable of and is she and her friends can pull this off.]

Can you defend yourself? As long as you keep to the back nothing ought to get through to you - we've got a fairly solid group, but just in case.

[ His choice was more than fair, he had just landed in the middle of this after all. That he offered assistance regardless was kind, and she nodded appreciatively. ]

Same to you, I've spent a good deal of time here, if I can help you I'll be glad to.
