South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:30
Seeing Anik hold out her hands, Timea considered telling her to climb up, herself, but decided not to make a fuss, and didn't. Turning her back to Anik, Timea had a second pair of arms grow from her back, and looked over her shoulder to see what she was doing. Bending through her knees a little to compensate for the height difference, Timea took hold of Anik below the armpits, then lifted her up, saying, "up you go~!" and placed Anik on her shoulders.
After, Timea looked down to Hillary, and said, "Don't worry, Hillary. Just a bit more, and you'll be able to ride someone's shoulders again."
With this said, she continued walking.
South-Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:30
Hearing, but not quite understanding what Timea was doing, Anik let herself be carried on Timeas shoulders, trusting her. When lifted, she made a little "Weee!" like Hillary had done on the other day, and giggled.
She smiled towards Hillary, and used her hands at Timeas head to steady herself, but did say nothing. Instead she took in all the different sounds and smells around them as they were moving, finally not having to worry about particular sounds and how the ground felt to navigate.

Femesh Daer - Day 7
One of the guards looked over at Quan Chi, slightly concerned by his appearance though not showing this, and said, "Yes?"

"Better late than never, right? I want to try and avoid casualties just as you do. And if I write these down, I can look over them in future, try to build plans around them."
"I was wondering, what happens to spellcasters and sorcerers here?" Quan Chi asked. "I heard they are imprisoned, correct?"

[color=9f2089]"Guess I should be thankful for that at least."[/color] Cybil muttered to herself. [color=9f2089]"Anyway, I'll show you techniques later, when I'm not so tired. But I can go over ideas now, at least."[/color] She paused to clear her throat. [color=9f2089]"The main idea behind nonlethal fighting is make the opponent unable, or unwilling, to keep fighting, without killing them. Whenever possible, you should opt to try and immobilize your enemy. If you can't do that, make them feel pain, without causing lasting damage, until they submit."[/color]
"Immobilisation, then pain. Got it." Robin wrote. "I could modify some of my spells to this effect. But on the subject of those techniques, how difficult are they to perform? I'm still learning swordplay. Perhaps I should just keep enemies occupied while you take them out."
Taking a moment to think, Cybil replied, [color=9f2089]"You might be right. Most of the specific techniques I know require a fair amount of strength to properly pull off. And, well, you were having trouble lifting a sword properly a few days ago."[/color]
"Perhaps I should look into that a bit too..." Robin mentioned. "There's probably a place here where I can buy a dumbbell."
[color=9f2089]"I'd suggest exercises you could do without equipment first. I mean sure, the barbell could help, but you really want to carry something like that around all the time? Not like you have anywhere to store it."[/color] Cybil pointed out.
"True. I bought chainmail in the last town, and I've had to wear it ever since." Robin opened his coat, showing the metal link vest.
Previously - Somewhere along the road of roading
Sometime after they'd started walking, Hillary looked over her shoulder to look at Anik, and then pivoted fully to face her. "Anik, can I ask you a questions?" She asked, still moving backwards to not stop Anik.

South Eastern Road - Day 8 - 11:30
Hillary was quite amused by Anik's 'weee', understanding that going on Timea's shoulders was indeed quite fun. "That's okay Timea, it looks like Anik's having lots of fun up there." Hillary smiled sweetly. "And look I got Anik's cane too!" Hillary said, holding up the thing she'd been carrying around.

Femesh Daer - Day 7
"We imprison them, yes, and then the military takes them away." the guard replied.

"Timea's gonna go steal something right?" Hillary asked rather bluntly. "I thought that was supposed to be wrong to do..?" Hillary added before looking at Anik more. With some consideration, Hillary asked a different question as well. "Do you wanna rest some Anik? Just a little break, you're kinda breathing a lot and stuff?"
"Well, yes, she will steal some food. And it is wrong in most cases, especially if it is something the other person really needs. But if you are really hungry, it is kind of fair to take some, because you need it more than they need it.
... But really only do it in emergencies.
Timea has another explanation, but I don't really understand it. But she thinks it is bad to buy stuff, so ... it's kind of bad in either case. Just hunting stuff would be better, but there are no animals big enough for Timea here." Anik answered.
She did not stop walking, instead responding: "It's fine, maybe in a little bit. But do you not rather want to look to where we are going, while speaking to me? It's more safe if at least you know what is in front of us."

Hilalry would pause before turning around. "Ya I guess I can't feel where I'm going like this, huh..." Hillary commented, not really thinking about it before hand that not having a mound would mean she couldn't feel what was ahead of her.
"But I guess that makes sense, although how do you know the other person doesn't need it too? They could get mad you took their thing without asking." Hillary said, looking forwards to see what was ahead of them. "Maybe she doesn't like buying stuff because she likes doing stuff herself a lot, huh? That could be it."

"But... aren't cows just animals?" Hillary replied to Anik, not quite following the logic Anik was showing her. "Wouldn't the cows get lonely anyways if no one was around with them?"
