Ahmaht leaned towards Zel, interested in 'the path' that he spoke of. "I will travel with you." he said. "But I have another question," he said, glancing over at Larea, "how long are we  going to travel together?" he asked. He didn't think it would trouble him if he were to spend weeks or months with them. Maybe even years. Even if he did find the person he was looking for, would she stay with everyone? Would she even stay with him?<br/>"Where did you say this path was?" he asked, remembering the smoke he saw on the horizon earlier.
