With nothing else to talk about really, Onyx and Tarentek said goodbye to Raldel for then and went back to Onyx's den, where Onyx made dinner and they went to bed with nothing else really interesting happening. The next morning, Onyx got up a little after dawn and started making breakfast so that it would be ready to eat when Tarentek got up. She decided not to wake him up today, to start getting him used to doing things for himself rather than her bossing him around like she had been doing.
