"Sigs! We made it!" Nico exclaimed whilst consulting the map she'd retrieved from her backpack.
Though he wasn't fooling anyone, the Seraph Sahound rolled his eyes & feigned a yawn as if treading the Lambastia World Bridge were an every day occurrence. Siggy was unable to put a dent in Nico's excitement at taking those first steps into Lambastia. She knew well enough that he was just as excited as she was, even if he were unwilling to show it.
"So now what, Miss Big Shot Adventurer?" Sigfried asked with gentle sarcasm.
Nico had grown up listening to the stories of others' adventures, and the often odd friendships struck up on the open road. Amazing how exciting these had all seemed whilst in the safety of ones' own home.
"Well, it seems a good spot to grab some lunch," she answered. In truth, Nico hoped another eager adventurer might happen along.
