Cyrus's eyes widened as Wiflor licked his face. He went a little red and watched as Wiflor jumped off the wagon and began walking alongside it. Atticus rolled his eyes as he directed the horses back in the direction of the town. There, they would buy more wagons and horses with their gains and go pick up the rest of the treasure. Cyrus hopped off the wagon and walked alongside Wiflor, petting her head gently.<br/><br/>"Hey... I got something for you." He held up the collar and showed it to her. "It's for you." He smiled. "I saw it and thought it would look great on you." He took her hand and placed the collar in it. The light from the midday sun caused the rubies, sapphires, and inlaid gold to shimmer brilliantly. He would continue to walk alongside the wagon. Finally, in the evening, they made it to the town and used some of the gold to trade for more wagons, horses, and other supplies.<br/><br/>Cyrus was quick to buy Wiflor a huge meal of many different cuts of meat,which he fed her near the wagon a few hours outside the town. Atticus came back in the middle of the night. Cyrus was asleep in his tent. Atticus sighed and sat near the campfire Cyrus had built. He decided to spend time keeping an eye out for thieves. That was one thing he hated about coming into so much money so quickly. However, he was able to make a circle with the new wagons. This created a safe little area where they could camp and protect their gold.  Morning came, and Cyrus was in his regular spot at Wiflor's side.
