[Elish]
Ana and I walked through the woods in deathly silence. She still had a flushed expression as an aftereffect of what transpired between us earlier.
I was just going to ignore the look she had on and kept walking.
I could immediately warp to our destination if I desired, but that would mean both Talia and Shamac wouldn't have enough time to defeat the imperial knights I told them to. I am a fair person after all.
By giving them enough time, if they somehow ended up disappointing me, I'd replace at least one with Ana. Out of the two, I was nearly certain of Talia's victory. Despite her inexperience I was sure she'd be victorious. As for Shamac, it was not certain but there was also a high chance of his winning. If he made good use of his shapeshifting factor, and used his wits he'd be able to secure his victory. Well then, I suppose I also wanted to see the results of the battle I left in their care.
