"It would appear so," Tawny replied Lance as she watched Lucas disappear into the trees. "However, it's possible that may be the case because they are still apart. We should keep it that way for now."

She usually felt secure around her group of friends, but with the sudden eccentric behaviors displayed by a few of them, it felt to her like they might as well have been total strangers. She shifted closer next to Lance and leaned against the side of the wagon, glad to be near a member of the group who still seemed level-headed enough. She hoped that no more of them would start to lose it the longer they remained in this unknown world.

Reina's question then reminded her of the stranger they had seen with Odum. Curious as well, she listened in to his reply from where she was.
