*Juna would make her way past the outskirts of town, heading off into the open plains that she typically took back to her camp ever since the roads had proven to be too dangerous for her. With the time having passed, the sky had soon become a scarlet-orange hue, signifying night soon approaching and with it, Juna figured she'd grab whatever she had left back at her home before returning to Addy's with what little coin she had collected for the day. Jace would walk at her side, practically hidden in the tall grass they walked through that seemed to come up halfway for Juna. It was quite annoying to walk through at times, but she preferred safety over the slight discomfort.*"Think we'll find any prey back home Jace...?"*Juna would ask her Jackal quietly while he sniffed along the ground. He didn't give a response which Juna expected, so she would only give a quiet sigh before continuing on.*

Celeana couldn't help but find herself growing bored. Honestly, she began tailing the Canifor since the early sunlight. If her presences was compromised, she would've known by now, right? Making sure to keep quite a gap between herself and the Canifor, using different spices and perfumes she gathered along the way to mask her scent. Feeling rather confident that this Canifor was the one from earlier based on the companion that always seemed to be nearby. It wasn't until she reached the open plains that she called out. "Princess.. Is that you!?!" Her pace moving from a walk to a jog to close the distance. "It's getting to be too dark for someone like you, what brings you out here?" Celeana's head tilted to the side to further place emphasis on the question. Unlike before, the mud from her hair was thoroughly removed recently. Strands of what was Ash coloured hair now gave the appearance of moonlight silver. Even her skin looked healthier, much more pale than before in the merchant district. "Don't tell me that you live out here, prey of the nocturnal are almost upon us."

*Juna went still as she heard someone call out to her, her head turning back to find herself staring over at Celeana. There was a long pause as Juna would look at her, not quite able to remember the Elf with how different she looked now. Mud completely washed away, she almost looked like a new person, but there was only one who has ever called her princess. Seeing her rush over, Juna found herself backing up defensively, her Jackal having darted out of the tall grass to rejoin her at the first sense of discomfort. Juna's hand would reach for her bow as she'd take a step back away from Celeana's approach. After a while, her gaze would narrow slightly as if studying the Elf before finally responding.*"...Aren't you the thief from earlier?"*Of course she had once more completely evaded the questioning with questions of her own as she began to wonder what Celeana was doing out here as well.*

*Celeana's jog slowly turned into a full stop as the Canifor reached for her weapon. Two pale hands lifting to her chest, palms facing outwards to prove she was not here to attack.* "I would feel much more inclined to answer your question, if I didn't feel like you'd shoot an arrow at me on a moments notice." *Her hands lowered back to her side, occasionally brushing against a set of throwing knives along her waistband. She didn't really care for 'thief' being her defining characteristic to the young lady.* "Here I thought I was being polite by remembering your name." *As she began walking towards the female, although her approach seemed carefree, she was entirely aware of how quickly things could turn if Juna removed the bow. She was betting on Juna's pure nature that she wouldn't attack someone who gave no outward intentions of harm.*

*Juna's gaze would lower slightly as Celeana mentioned her shooting her bow. At first the Canifor considered explaining that it would impossible to get away with a proper shot at this close of range, but seeing the Elf near her anyways, she would simply take another step back, her grip tightening.*"My name is Juna..."*She would murmur in correction of her, eyeing Celeana while Jace would stare at her, barking at the woman in warning.*"Have you... Been following me..."*She'd accuse. It hadn't even been a whole day since she's last saw Celeana and seeing she had come this far, surely it wasn't any mere coincidence.*
