Jake had slept a couple of hours, but his nightmares woke him up before daylight. He never had nightmares before, he always slept soundly even after facing death, but after Dani's death he was unable to close his eyes without reliving the last time he saw her: the day he raided the Wolfpack camp with the Black Knights. Dani had insisted on it, she told him he needed to do whatever was necessary to gain their trust. Jake should have never crossed that line, he should never have put himself in that situation.

At the moment, Jake was sitting by a tree, very close to where the Newhaven officers had made their encampment. He had made himself invisible and had stayed away from the trails so that, no matter how many people passed, no one would trip over his feet. He was simply watching the movement of soldiers walking back and forth... He had been there ever since the battle started, and watched from a small distance as the two armies collided. Jake couldn't help but think of himself as useless right now. He was standing in the middle, but he couldn't actually help the Pack or Newhaven right now. Still he felt more at peace near the army than he ever did at the camp... Maybe it was the fact that he had killed Dani... Not only her, but many other assassins, and he couldn't forgive himself.

Jake managed to hide the fact that he was there during that attack from Crys so far, but he knew it wouldn't last very long. Once she found out, the fact that her mother was killed with a poisoned dart would make it obvious that it had been his doing. She would never forgive him for that. Even if that dart was never shot with the intention to kill, that wouldn't matter to Crys. He shot the dart, and he lied, nothing else would matter. He thought of Evin's words as he watched the soldiers... Evin meant well, but he couldn't understand the problem. Not really. Jake was sure the man would be the first one to want his head on a stick when the truth come to public.

As he thought about all that, he caught a glimpse of a black armor and darted his eyes towards the Black Knight captain as the woman passed. He noticed she was walking with a limp and frowned slightly to himself. After a moment or two of hesitation he got on his feet and decided to follow from a distance just to see if he could find out was going on with the war.
Anyone else would consider such move to be foolish. If something was to happen to brake the illusion, Jake would become visible amongst a crowd of Newhaven soldiers. while wearing assassin clothing. However he had made it a part of his routine to walk quietly and not bump into things. There would probably be no harm in walking around.
