Penelope hurried to get ready to leave. She shoved on her boots and grabbed the bags. Hurrying, she followed Crow over to the front door of the stable and stood back as he peered outside. She was ready to bolt for it if he saw an opening. However, that clearly wasn’t the case as she watched him mutter a curse and begin to look for a different way out. She took a step back and began to do the same until he told her to stand back.

She raised an eyebrow at him and stepped off to the side. It didn’t take long for her to realize what he was planning as she watched him walk over to the nearest horse. Crossing her arms, she gave an amused look as she watched him send the horse charging out of the stables. 

The knight nodded her head and quickly sprinted after Crow as he took off towards the forest. She slowed down besides him once they were far enough away and nodded her head in agreement. “Certainly got my blood pumping.” She said in amusement. As he mentioned how lucky it had been for her to wake up early, Penelope merely gave a small nod, looking a bit distant as she recalled her nightmare. 

“You ready for more training today?” She asked to get her mind off of her worries. She looked over at him and smirked. “I’m thinking today I’ll teach you how to actually fight with a blade."
