(( Just a heads up ya'll! I'm going camping tomorrow till the 14th and I won't be able to post till we get back. :3 ))

((Have fun!))

Kia nodded taking the bottle of water and breathing slowly in and out. She was really feeling much better, really the only thing that kind of stung at the moment was her pride. "I'll be fine," she assured both of them and gave Kai a one armed hug. "Let's press on. Once we get to our destination I can sit down." She did hate having to rush through the journey there but, Kia reasoned that there was much more to see and she'd have at least a few days to see it all.

Part of the prince was relieved Kia was coherent, a much larger part began to ache for the lack of a drink in hand and on the whole he became sort of fidgety. “I could call for a liter?” He shrugged. With a well-practiced whistle a pillow laden transport would appear mounted on the backs of a few small mammals who more closely resembled large rocks when not in motion. Devin was very familiar with this method of travel, more so in the morning after staying up all night having drank away his sorrows rendering him much to tired or on occasion drunk, to make the walk home himself.

Either way Kia wouldn’t miss out on the view but Devin had an idea of how strong willed she was and wasn’t going to push her. Not to mention it felt good to stretch his legs after having been cooped up indoors for the last week as payment to his beloved mother and her cackling counsel. “It gets easier the longer you stay, though hardly anyone stays long enough for that to count.” He laughed a little to himself and couldn’t help but grin. The day was warm, the breeze was frequent and the forest was buzzing with life. Being half a beast himself Devin couldn’t ignore the energy the forest was feeding into him doing much to lift his spirits despite his lack of alcoholic beverage.
