Claire closed her eyes for a few moments, as though musing silently about what Oford just said. "I'm one to keep my promises dearie," she replied to the boy-then-man, tipping her witch's hat towards him. "Oh . . . and take good care of your lover. The last thing I want is another romantic tragedy," she added dryly. She turned to Ian, knowing that he wasn't going to leave . . . not that it bothered Claire much. Despite how rude she was, he was willing to stick around. That had made him at least somewhat of a . . . decent acquaintance at the current time. Hearing what he said next to Oford was enough to startle her, adding a deeper color of green on her cheeks. "Really?" she scoffed, holding her broomstick tightly in her hand as she walked closer to him as though to interrogate him. "Better keep your promise then Ian." She smirked somewhat, but there was no humor in her voice.
Stepping back, she turned to the sky. Like Ian said, there wasn't much time left . . . perhaps she needed her caravan again. Her broomstick carried only her and her alone--considering it seemed to be overly mischievous when it came to other people--and the caravan would carry her and Ian a lot faster than merely on foot. Putting her green fingers to her mouth, she made a loud, shrill whistle that traveled through the forest to the middle, where her wagon lay. Its wheels turned, and it quickly made its way through the trees and bushes, stopping in front of the group as though it were a dog called by its master.
"Might as well. It's not exactly spacious, but it's faster than any person on foot. And it knows its way around seemingly dense or mucky places," she said, mostly to herself than anyone. She turned to Ian, adding, "Good enough for you?"
