When Emmanuel learned that Mackenzie was planning to lead a campaign against the bandits, he wasn't surprised, but he still felt the need to warn her. "Mackenzie, just take on the role of commander in name only. Don't lead the charge personally, and whatever you do, don't put yourself at risk by entering the Five Poison Sect's territory."
