Janius sniffed and began to nod with more resolve. Even if he had make some wrong decisions, it didn't change the responsibility he now held as a result. Kaleeth might be furious with him for letting her fall for this, and being with her might not be the dream that he had played it out to be, but he was still obliged to help her. On top of that, keeping Ahnasha protected was a priority. The last thing Janius wanted to do was hurt Kaleeth, but similarly he would never recover if Ahnasha was harmed by his inaction. The best he could do was try to prevent the situation before it happened, but if it did, he knew what he would have to do. Janius looked back at Meesei with a determined frown, "I understand."

Meesei's words didn't quite take the pain away, but they gave Janius enough focus to continue. He turned and headed for the common hut as well. "Goodnight, Meesei."

The next morning, Janius woke up tired from staying up late and from taking a long time to get to sleep. The hustle and bustle of the pack in the morning got him up though. The pack was gathering its belongings and getting ready to head out. Janius was quiet, understandably after last night. Fendros was wary of Kaleeth, but outwardly showed a relief in heading off again. The village was nice, but he was beginning to get cabin fever after such a long stay. Sabine seemed energetic, and had taken the time to seek out Tunxeek and Thorantilth to say one last thank you and goodbye. She felt a little sad to part with her new friend in Tunxeek, but she understood that she would have to leave after a while.
