Alycia moves faster stoping to effort of hiding her position and rushing the border, it was a few miles SE of where she was but if she ran hard enough she might make it there.  Assuming it wasn't a predator that was stalking her, the Shakarra would not leave their terratory.  She hoped anyways.  Warparties regularly left their area, but generally guards didn't.  Having grown up among the Pindaro, she knew little of the Shakarra, except the occasional scout or war party that managed to make it so far north.  Desshana was no better though, their empire had had their hearts hardened by the constant war with their neighbors and the Shakarra.  She knew they didn't really care about the Pindaro, and between the two she'd rather be captured by the Desshana then by the Shakarra.
