Ramera swept her gaze back and forth, but any dust had long settled. She noted that there were a few more wandering dead as she drew further from Paradise, but that wasn't all that unusual. She slowed as she became satisfied with the fact that nothing had tailed the caravan, tilting her wings to the left as she brought forth a white shining ball in her palm, throwing it straight down beneath her, signalling a lack of any activity. Her eyes caught a mixture of coloured flares that had shot up across Paradise in the distance. Her mind brought forth their meanings all at once. An intruder, and a friendly returning to Paradise. She couldn't tell if any other flares had been shot up, and her judgement may have been wrong, reading the colours from dissipated smoke at this distance couldn't always be one hundred percent accurate all the time, even for her. She brought her wings together above her head, and with a renewed strength began pushing flying quickly back to Paradise.

As she neared Paradise she noticed a figure in the distance, making its way to the far side of the wall. One of the dead perhaps? She drew herself higher as she prepared for a dive to end the shambler's life. It wasn't until she'd begun diving towards the creature that she heard a voice yelling from down below, [b][color=aquamarine]"HELLO UP THERE!"[/color][/b] her mind pieced things together not a moment too soon as she directed herself down into the red sand below, and with surprising subtlety she stuck the landing. She looked up at the boy as he conversed with a guard who'd popped his head over the edge. [b]"I'll take him to the Gatekeeper,"[/b] she called up to the guard, approaching the boy.
