"… The air feels so hot and sticky," Iris muttered with an uncomfortable expression on her face, riding on Finn's shoulders. "I hate it."
Since her mana wasn't unlimited, they decided to conserve as much as they could by having Iris ride on Finn like usual unless it was absolutely essential for her to walk on her own. Iris didn't say it out loud, but she much preferred being on Finn's shoulders like this rather than walking on her own. She was afraid Finn would think she was weird or babylike if she admitted this to him, though, so she kept it to herself.
"… See any Specters?" Finn asked, keeping his footsteps light and almost inaudible.
"Hm… no. The sun is bright so it might camouflage them in this bright rainforest, but… so far, I'm not spotting anything," Iris replied. "These tall trees don't give me a great feeling, though… we should keep an eye in the air."
