Penelope smiled at Crow's words as he tried to comfort her. She appreciated his effort, even if wasn't quite the exact reason for her feeling a bit sad from talking about her life. It still worked a little though as it reminded her that despite what she would be losing, she would be gaining Crow and to her, that would be enough. She was hopeful that she would eventually come to view the outer villages with the same fondness that he had for them. 

"I love you too. And I'm glad. I like hearing you talk about the things that make you happy too." She mused. She gave him an affectionate smirk before leaning her head in closer to his. "You light up, it's cute." She murmured against his ear, letting her lips lightly brush against his ear. She then moved to press a kiss to his lips. However, since they were still on horseback and needed to keep alert, she kept the kiss short, despite wanting to make the moment last longer. 

She sighed softly and leaned her head against his as she looked back ahead. It was slowly growing late in the day as they traveled. "Guess we'll be looking for an inn soon." She said as she eyed the sky. "And from what I can tell, we might just reach the border by the end of tomorrow." Penelope thought over the journey they had made. It was strange to think about how much had changed from the beginning, how much she had changed and all the danger they had gone through together. 

The knight smiled to herself as she thought back on their time together. "You know.. I think this has simultaneously been the best and worst mission I've ever had to do."
