Along the way, they'll occasionally pass by horse-drawn carriages who would stare at them inquisitively, but Marcus didn't mind.
The reactions were expected.
Some slowed down as they passed.
Others stopped completely.
Drivers pulled their reins tighter, horses shifting uneasily as the JLTV rolled past with a steady hum that didn't match anything they were used to.
"They're all staring," Liora said quietly, glancing out the window.
Selene leaned slightly to get a better look.
"Can you blame them?" she replied. "We're inside a moving metal box."
Kael kept his eyes closed.
"Just keep it steady," he muttered.
Marcus smirked faintly.
"I am."
Seraphine watched the road ahead, then glanced briefly at the people they passed.
"You're drawing attention," she said.
Marcus shrugged.
"Yeah," he replied. "But not enough to stop us."
A carriage passed by on the opposite side.
The driver turned his head completely, eyes locked on the vehicle as it went by.
