The Hallows, despite being on another continent, was Ashen’s closest ally and she found no problem making her way south to meet with Artorias. The trip wouldn’t take very long, not like making it all the way up North to see Sirius and the Armada. Having the alone time was an unexpected bonus to the trip. The pups were getting older, and she knew Maverick would have no trouble keeping them in line while she was gone. However tempted she was to bring them along. Everything would go quicker alone.

She approached the border that evening, trying to keep Artorias’ schedule in mind when she met with him. Venom leaned back onto her haunches there at the border and called out for the Hallowed Aegis, not intending to take up much of the Carpathians time tonight.
