"Maybe. You know the field better than I do. But from the couple missions we've done, I'd not wanna do anything without at least a partner."
*Ikehara flashed a grin back, patting his shoulder reassuringly.* "Maybe you'll find that person, and I'm gonna keep looking." *She held his gaze with her officer's intensity, the smile disarming it considerably. She began to shift her mount to their hitching, calling to Terrel once they were settled.*
"I'm gonna put the rest of the meat to dry, what else we got to do today?"

*Terrel watched her go, lightly tilting his head to the side. At least they had each other and the Kemonomimi seemed experienced enough in a field of discipline and combat to not start a fight amongst allies in the middle of a mission. He could at least trust her to not behead him in the middle of the night. Well, he thought so anyways. The Elf had seen a passivist turn into a murderer in seconds from the things he's said and done. But between her and his friend out in the west, maybe having a group to depend on wasn't so farfetched. In fact, it gave him an idea. Terrel brought his horse over as Ikehara called him and got Carl settled next to his comrade. He turned to face her as she asked if anything else they had to do.*"Nothing else for tonight. I'm going to look through a few maps in my room and start getting things packed. We'll be setting off again soon and I have a new destination in mind."
Lyn
"Oh yeah? Something planned?" *She asked as she passed him again, having fetched the remaining bag of meat from their dry storage. She left the door to the hut open so she could still hear him, preparing the strips of venison with her usual mixture of spices and preservatives.*
Robert
"Something like that."*He said with a chuckle.*"We'll have cross Mentia though which is a war zone in itself across borders. I'll be heading to the shops tomorrow before we set out again. It'll be just us and the horses from here."
