Jyade nodded, picking up her bow and quiver, wrapping each diagonally around her shoulder and back so they wouldn't fall off. She just hoped that the tunnel didn't open up to a point in the canyon where they would fall a few feet if they weren't careful. She slung the cloak around her shoulders once again and took Hunin into her arms before going to stand beside him at the tunnel entrance. After he crashed into the wall like that, enough of it fell so that they could walk through it. "Let's get going then," she said softly. She held Hunin tightly against her chest, gently stroking the beast's head as he slept.
She turned and started to make her way into the tunnel, looking around carefully so that she could see where she was going. It was pretty easy right now, with the moonlight shining down into the tunnel to light their way. "I guess we ought to stop in the next city we reach. It'll sure be nice to sleep in a bed after this." She knew that what she said probably sounded weird to him, after she made a point of letting him know that she needn't any sleep. The truth was, she just didn't have to sleep every day like full blooded humans. She slept once or twice every week, so that her energy didn't diminish.
The elf made her way down the tunnel slowly, having seen him dragging his feet along the cave floor before. Sleeping in a bed, and getting a new pair of boots, sounded nice to her. Of course, going into a city meant that she'd probably be shunned. The last time she was past the canyon, though it was a bit further away than the next city, people didn't look at her strangely because of her ears. She knew now that elves went to cities close to their homeland, and that was why her parents told her to get past the canyon. "Have you ever seen a dragon?" The question, really, came from nowhere. She only saw two in her entire life, a baby and its parent, but after that she seemed to always be where they weren't. Most people would call that a blessing, but she didn't. She wanted to see one again.
