"Are you *Sure* Your foot isn't bothering you?"

*It was the day after the two had just gotten off the caravan. No more desert now; the two were headed up into the cooler mountains. Now warmly dressed in red silk, Ling wore her armor in her backpack. She didn't need the extra weight right now. On the way, she had picked up some food from the caravan; as thanks for her protection against the bandits.*

*What she was worried about was not the cold nor starvation. What worried her was Machi's foot. She had taken a slash to it, one that had crippled her and required a healer to fix. Worry still went through her mind. This was a mountain. If there were any flaws still remaining, it would show.*

"I just want to make sure you're safe."
Micheal
*The Okamimi Warrior would nod faintly. She was keeping up well, without agitating her wound too much. She had her armor worn, as she was carrying her tent in her bag for now. She sighed a little, as she stretched.*

"Yeah, its feeling a lot better, thank you for asking, Ling."

*She said, as she looked about. She was always wary of danger, but doubted she would need to worry to much this time. All in all, the Okamimi woman was glad they began the trek into the mountains. She was tired of how sand seemed to get everywhere.*

"At the very least I can walk. Don't know how well a jog will go however."
Lynn
"Alright. We should take a break then. I don't want it to be strained too much."

*Ling sits down on a flat rock, gesturing for Machi to take a seat next to her. Taking out the pack, Ling takes out a pork bun, handing it to the oriate.*

"We can probably find water with a spring or some snow. Mind if I take a look? I just want to make sure."
Micheal
*The Okamimi nodded, as she took a seat. She began to remove her armor on her legs to begin massaging the previously injured foot. She set her backpack down too.*

"Yeah, that sounds fine. Hopefully we will be lucky enough to have a spring. Snow could also work, if we get a fire going."

*She said, and took the pork bun, taking a bite to start with.*
Lynn
*Placing the bun in her mouth, Ling bends down to care for Machi's foot. The scar of the cut is still visible. Damn healer. Didn't do his job properly. Ling takes out a few bandages, wrapping Machi's foot in it.*

"It'll help keep your foot in place, as well as cushion it. We should find a walking stick to relieve some of the pressure."

"Do we have enough wood to start a fire?"

*Once Ling secures Machi's foot, she sits back up, taking a bite on the pork bun. Seeing Machi's ears, she had the sudden urge to pet them.*

*"Not now, dammit."*
Micheal
*The Okamimi let off little happy noises, as her Macen companion began to care for her injured foot. Her fluffy ears twitched a little, an her twin tails began to wag a little.*

"I think we do have enough firewood."

*She said, going to look at their firewood supply. Her tails wagged a little faster, and her ears twitched faster too, as her foot was sufficiently padded.*

"A walking stick... Hm, I hadn't thought about it."

*She added, and nodded.*

"That sounds like a pretty good idea, actually."
