Slowly, Rayen puts her shield and weapon back on but out of her hands. After years of living with Thore, Rayen has learned when it is best to follow directions and not doing anything rash. She walks in the middle of the group, keeping her hands down at her sides and away from her weapons.

While they travel, Rayen watches the lizard men. She finds herself very curious about these creatures that are not so unlike Thore; just very much smaller.
