Penelope hide her surprise as he mentioned Myrefall. She hadn't realized they were so close to his hometown, the only reason she knew of Norcrest was due to the talk of meeting the thieves there. However, she kept her surprise to herself and merely nodded in agreement at his words. "Yeah. I'll see you then." She told him. The knight gave a small wave of goodbye to the other thieves before moving to leave with Olivia, who reluctantly stepped away from Alistair to follow. 

Once they were away from the thieve's camp, Penelope let out a long sigh, feeling exhausted as she was worn down by the day and her swirling emotions. She felt Olivia's gaze on her and turned to see the other female knight looking expectantly at her. "What?" She asked Olivia in confusion. 

"Well I was waiting for you to explain yourself. What the hell are you doing?" Olivia said, actually sounding a bit concerned about her friend, which caught Penelope a bit off guard. 

"I'm just doing what I have to." Penelope answered with a shrug. "It's not like I'm telling the Younisians about our plans. It's just Crow and if it keeps everyone safe, I don't see the big problem." 

"The problem might come with what he does with said information." Olivia mumbled, being a bit more serious than usual. "Look, you know I don't care much about stuff like this but I would like this war to go in our favor. Considering I do want to live. Also what about everything you're putting on the line? You left him behind for it and now you're risking it anyways?" 

"It'll be fine, Olivia." Penelope assured but then fell quiet at the rest of her comrade's words. She hadn't fully explained to Olivia that she had been planning to leave with Crow at one point so she supposed it all didn't make sense. "I'll be careful. I snuck around a whole castle full of enemies before, I can sneak around a couple knights I know." 

"I guess... Anyways, turns out this worked in my favor. Now I'll help cover for you but only if you cover for me." Olivia said with a smirk, quickly changing the topic. 

"Yeah, I figured." Penelope said with a small laugh. "You've got a deal though."

The two continued on back towards their campsite. The events of the day left Penelope feeling a bit empty as she reflected on how  she and Crow acted towards each other now. There was so much distance and complication that the knight nearly wished she hadn't offered her help. It would have been much less painful to just leave him be and stay out of all that concerned with the thieves. [i]At least.. I get to see him again.[/i] The thought passed through despite the feelings that came with seeing him again and she mentally chided herself for it. She sighed and focused back ahead as their camp came into view, trying to get her mind off the thief.
