It had been a while now since the return to West Bridge. Many things had changed, but the objective remained the same.
Though he had much to attend to, and could not personally maintain the observation of the young woman, the task of keeping an eye on her was being carried out, nevertheless. And though they had apparently "disappeared" once or twice, fortunately picking-up their trail again soon after had not proven very difficult; especially given the "distinctiveness" of her companion.
Even so, Xarkuss would, on a constant basis, do his own bit of observation and reconnaissance. And on more than a few occasions was set to take-off behind the couple on their journey; though for one reason or another it would be put-off every time, and by the looks of things, was not likely to take place anytime soon.
There were too many entities involved now, and even more affected. Too many different parties, with too many different agendas...
Xarkuss knew that only sensible thing to do now, was to sit back, watch, and just wait and see. "I wonder who'll be making the next move..."
