"Professor Walt's trail ends here," June mumbled, standing before the gate of a village. The majestic Starfire Crane stood next to her, tired from all the flying it did while carrying her. She had traveled over a thousand miles in a span of a day. June was bound to give Sylvie some rewards for her hard work. But for now, she couldn't relax yet.
"Sylvie, fly around to see if there's anything amiss in the surroundings," June said. "I'll be in the village."
Sylvie clunked, rubbing her head against June.
"I'll be fine," June reassured the bird. "I'll have something for you to eat by the time you're back."
With that, she entered the village, though her eyes darted to where Sylvie flew off to. The sunset was on the horizon, and it would be dark in no time. June planned on finishing her first task by then. She hoped the instructor had been accommodating to the villagers' problem.
