Battered and fatigued from their conflict in the shroud the shade and the guard he assembled move ever closer to the borders of the shroud. The guard consisted of three hyur highlander swordsman, one roegadyn hellsguard axeman and one dunsefolk lalafell archer. The composition was created in mind for providing openings for either the axeman of archer to deliver the final blow, these openings would be created by the swordsman and their quick flurry of attacks meant to disorient and pressure the enemy to do something they would otherwise not do. The formation was however quite simple, the three swordsman were the vanguard, the axeman stayed more near the middle with the shade while the archer kept a reasonable distance behind. While the archers position could be considered more vulnerable their skill with a blade is not lacking therefore should he get engaged for close quarters he would be able to fend them off until the others relieved him.
As they traveled at a brisk pace the shades linkpearl began to ring and he signaled for his guards to halt but for a moment. "Report" a simple command in which soon after a female voice responded "The thralls have been completed and as per your orders most were released into the thanalan region while some scattered to the other regions. One has already been defeated though but has provided useful data." The shade quickly responds "How was it defeated?" a slight chuckle from the female before she responded "Nothing extravagant, was simply overpowered and then beaten to death, due to this we will have to reinforce their bodies and perhaps lessen the amount of seals so that they may be more effective in combat." The shade thinks for a moment before responding "Before that happens let the other thralls run their course and provide us with whatever data they can obtain, is that understood?" the shade said the last bit in a cold tone. There was another chuckle from the female "Of course milord, its a shame though those bodies would have been wonderful additions to my section." The shade replied simply "There will be plenty of bodies soon enough" before cutting the line.
He signaled for his guards to move out again, with word that the weapons were now active he increased the pace despite the fatigue in order to observe the effectiveness of the weapons. This slight shift in focus however could prove detrimental considering they have not arrived at the border yet.
