Wind in My Sails

“Oh. Okay.” Adder retreated with a nod, cutting its massive body a wide berth. Even as the bird shook its feathers and prepared to take flight again, the woman stretched out her wind-frozen limbs. They’d flown pretty high up, all things considered.

Rubbing the chill from her bones, the redhead watched those long wings unfold with preternatural grace. The membrane caught the sun for a moment, glowing a bright red, and then the Titavian was off in a whirl of dust.

Adder snapped her hand forward, pilfering a feather out of the air. With a beaming grin on her face, she tucked it behind her ear and turned to her friend.

“More walking?” She made a face. “Aight. Not like we have a choice, do we?”

"You'll be alright." There was always a chance they'd run into a farmer or something of the sort.

The truth was this trip had been good, or at least part of it. Sure they had ended up ship-wrecked, nearly torn to pieces and trapped on an island, but...well it hadn't been the worst thing she'd ever experienced. At the very least she could count this in the 'plus' column of experiences in her life.

"Come on." She motioned to her friend. "We'll head up that ridge and see if we can't spot some waterfalls."

That was usually what pointed the best way to Theed. The great city was spotted with so many rivers and waterfalls that it was almost too much. Jamie had said it was because of the planets honeycomb like make-up, but she wasn't entirely sure about that.

A smile formed on her face as she began to walk. "And I pick the vacation spot next time."
