The event with the rattle tailed snakes went on until the Su had finally broken through the clouds and begun to warm up the general area. Midnight seemed as if she was fairly proud to have led them for an hour or two but Su and Walker found it very amusing. It was like a full time job for her by the time the sun broke through. Walker had a good time taking a break from their hide and seek game but also practicing controlling the fire elemental mana from Midnight's flames.
"We should be back home soon. It looked like the last few days have been worth the extra effort." Su was feeling very good about their progress. The three had been stopping for small breaks without a long period of rest. They liked the feeling of pushing themselves because they could only think of their goals. They wanted to get home and prepare for the dragons to come. They wanted to see their family again. It was just more excitement than anything else.
