Kate grabbed the stick, "Thanks the people in camp will stare at us. Pay them no heed. You are my protector and friend. Talon, I am happy to have met you. You need anything just ask. You do know you will never see the arena again. I will not make you fight for sport. I will join you on your hunts. You will never starve. I hope you like catfish."<br/><br/>Kate led him back into camp. There were points, stares, and whispers. The mage strolled to her tent and set the stick outside. She opened the flap, "Enter, Talon, and lie down on the quilts. We will leave after breakfast."
