[Music Recommendation: A House In Nebraska ~ Ethel Cain]
Oriana finally raised her face after they had walked a long distance without stopping. She looked around, not sure of where they were going.
"Where are we going?" she asked in a small voice, her hands now wrapped around Adric's neck.
Adric looked down at the girl in his arms. "You'll see when we get there," he replied and continued walking.
"I can walk now. Isn't your hand hurting?" Feeling bad that Adric had been carrying her since they left the inn, Oriana asked him.
Adric smiled. "Don't worry about me. Worry about putting on more weight."
Oriana frowned, feeling insulted. "I eat more than any elite lady I know," she huffed.
Adric shook his head and smiled, reaching a small inn that was still open. He brought Oriana down to stand on the small step.
