eumenisArrangements are made quickly and decisively, which is Furiosa's usual style of command. She needs only two days to get a car set up for her and Loki to scout the desert in search of Max. If he can be found, they'll find him. If he's alive and in trouble, then she has all the other volunteers to help.
It's just, she feels she has to start with magic, since she has no leads at all other than the spot he left the Citadel from six months ago, and the handful of bits and pieces he leaves behind when he goes.
When Loki arrives at the Citadel for the expedition, Furiosa has an old car radio, a scrap of leather, and a book of poetry sitting on the workbench in the garages. She shows her the items at once, right after exchanging greetings and offering her her choice of firearms and spare canteens from their armory.
"These are the last things he left behind," she explains. "We got the radio working, off and on. The leather's from his jacket sleeve, and he brought the book for me. Any of that help?"

It's just going to be the two of them this time, because Furiosa doesn't want to put anyone else at risk on what is essentially a scouting mission, which might stray into unfamiliar territory. The Council and Ace have their instructions, and Furiosa has calculated her fuel and supplies very carefully. They can be out for a week or more, if they ration well enough.
Before she's taken more than a step or two, she feels the tingle and the pull, and puts her hand over her midriff, finding it a little eerie. "Oof. Well. We're heading South, I think."

When Furiosa pauses, Loki can guess what that's about, even without the hand moving to illustrate. "Just remember- the spell directs as the crow flies, so we'll have to find our own way around obstacles. The closer we get, the more the direction will 'wobble' and that's when we'll swap to a more specific tracking spell."
But she trusted Furiosa would know how to navigate. This was her world after all, who better to know the tricks of the place like a native?
