Their walk took a surprising amount of time, and it would've been much faster had Nyzzara let them ride on her dire wolf.

"Hey..." He leaned in to Zafira's ear, clutching her hand a bit tighter. "Do you think she has a grudge against you?"
"Yeah..." Zafira whispered back with a sigh. "The way she looked at me after I told her she smelled bad was a dead giveaway. Honestly, I can't say I like her, but her cooperation is a good thing to have."
"Agreed." Rael nodded.
Just as he was about to separate, Zafira tightened the grip on his hand, almost as if she didn't want him to move away.
"Zafira...?"
