Penelope relaxed a little as Naida finally folded to watching her surroundings thanks to Crow's additional push. Even though the other female knight wasn't as committed to keeping her guard up, she was just glad that they had convinced her friend to keep an eye out. Knowing they were all staying alert to some degree lessened the knight's concern about getting attacked, though she still kept her own guard up as they continued to travel. Luckily the first have of their trip went by without a hitch. She knew that didn't mean it would stay like that for the rest of their journey but at the very least, they a bit of peace. 

As they came to a stop after Crow's declaration of hunger, she directed her horse to a halt and dismounted the stead. Back on her own feet, she gave a small stretch to fight off the stiffness that was beginning to set in from riding. It was perhaps the one thing she missed about being able to travel by wagon but at least it was better than traveling by foot. Her gaze flickered over to Crow as the viceroy spoke up. At his teasing words about how she had been when they first met, she rolled her eyes.

"In my defense, we had far smaller rations to feed that bottomless pit of yours." she smirked, poking his side. The knight crossed her arms over her chest and gave a thoughtful look. "Although I have to agree with you. Not having to constantly watch a rather annoying thief is certainly nice." she added nudging his side playfully. 

"Finally a break!" Naida exclaimed as she moved to sit down on a flat boulder nearby. Her gaze flickered over to the couple and she gestured for them to join her. "Riding in silence is so dull."

Penelope walked over to join her friend, leaning back against a nearby tree. After traveling on a horse, the knight wanted to keep on her feet rather than sitting down. "You get used to it after a while." the knight shrugged her shoulders. Penelope shot her friend an amused smirk. "It's not the worst thing in the world to keep quiet, you know."
