Miyuki nodded as she caught up with them, "Ready."

She waved to Wren, she didn't know that Wren had just been returning to the castle.

"Are you coming too?"

Wren smiled and shook her head. "No, I've just returned from the city. Some mementos for the trip. It's hard to pick just a few, even harder to make sure they're small. But my bag won't hold much more than it already does, and who knows how many countries we're going to see before the end?"

Her eyes were bright. "But you go on and enjoy yourselves. I believe Arwen and Roydon said that they hope to have the ship ready to sail the day after tomorrow."

That was really quick to start sailing again, but it wasn't really that surprising to Miyuki at all.

"We will, see you later!"

It reminded her though that her little brother had a bag that wasn't yet runed. She should do that before the trip so he could carry more stuff instead of having to depend on her or their parents.

Now that she thought about it further, she had something that belonged to him.

"Goodbye!" Wren grinned at the three and headed inside the castle.

"You know," River remarked as she, Jess and Miyuki made their way down the road that led to the city, "I don't think I'm sorry to be going so quickly. I mean, I had a lot of fun here, but I'm really excited to see where Uncle Luk lives. And to see more people like Grandmama and Papa and me."

"I still can't imagine it," Jess admitted softly. "Miyuki, what's it like? What are the people like, I mean?"

"I didn't really get to stay there long enough to know the people personally," Miyuki admitted, "It was sort of a detour that we ended up there."

So she didn't really get to talk to anyone.

"But what I had noticed was that there were so many different people there. There were Light Elves, and Dark Elves, and people who look like Sky Elves, but I don't think they call themselves Sky Elves. There are the Earth Elves.... and... I'm pretty sure I saw one other elf type but I don't know what they're called. I also heard there are Water Elves which was main the reason why Ryu, Feng and Naida wanted to come.... and of course there are Humans there too."

"And people of mixed blood, like Uncle Luk," River added with a smile. "And Grandmama."

"It will be interesting to see what kind of things they've come up with, living together," Jess remarked. "I mean, every different race has something unique to them, right? So when they come together, they must share and expand then, right?"

"That's what Uncle Luk says," River agreed. "Like the green glasses he wears sometimes. Or the telescope."

Miyuki nodded, "They have technology that I think... is unique to them."

At least in this world, she hadn't seen any other place yet that had clockwork on such a small scale. Though now, thanks to Andarien, Amon Darthir would have watches and other clockwork now.

"I guess you'll have the opportunity to see just how unique their technology is," River winked at Miyuki. "In a way I think it would be neat to go with you ... but on the other hand ..."

She grinned up at Jess. "I think it would be just fine to settle down and have a home, too."

Jess blushed lightly and chuckled, putting one arm around River's shoulders.

Very soon they had arrived in the city.

"Shall we meet back here in an hour?" Jess asked Miyuki. "Then we can each do our own things."

It was a good plan, especially since Miyuki figured River and Jesse had people they would like to say good bye to in private and Miyuki had errands she just had to see to before they leave again.

"Sure,"
she checked the sky just once, "One hour it is then."

Maybe in times where time units were given, she thought it would be useful to have something to tell time with.

River and Jess waved to Miyuki and promised to be back in the same spot in one hour, and then they were off to say goodbye to their new-found friends. They had no shopping to do, no souvenirs to buy, so that wouldn't take them any time. They had no doubt that they would be on time to meet Miyuki again.

An hour also suited Miyuki, but that was because she knew exactly who she needed to see and what she wanted. Though the longest errand was getting a new staff. It was hard to find another one after finally getting comfortable with her old one. However, after a bit of searching she did come away with a new staff and a few scrolls, and a few smaller pieces of paper she had specially cut.

She had read somewhere in the book Shiro gave to her about small "seal" runes that were put onto pieces of paper and stuck onto things or people to do various things depending on what was required. It sounded... interesting. Apparently magic would make it stick that was also required in the rune system.

It would be a new project for her as well. Once those errands were done, she gave her good byes to her old friends with promises to visit again. Even if she didn't know when that next time would be. By the time she met up at their agreed meeting spot, she was holding a staff, the scrolls and paper were safely tucked into her bag.

By the time River and Jess returned to the meeting spot, they were only a few minutes behind Miyuki. River waved cheerfully when she saw her, and Jess smiled warmly.

"Nice staff," River beamed when they approached. "I guess your old one's gone for good, then?"

"Well, no one found it again after the dragons incident, and I really didn't want to go back into the cave to look for it," Miyuki admitted.

Even though she would not be alone if she went again, and the cave had to be empty this time around, she rather not go back. For all she knew anyways, it got crushed under the dragon when it tripped or whatever it did when she tried her chain scroll on it to buy them time.

"I don't blame you," River sympathized as they started back towards the castle. "That would be like going back to the Human Southland after what happened to us there, just to pick up something we dropped. Better to replace, yes."

"At least you all got out of there without getting hurt," Jess added, referring, in a way, to both incidents.

"You're right," Miyuki replied though she seemed a bit thoughtful at that, "Though both cases, if help hadn't come...."

That had been the part that always bothered her the most. If help had been late or hadn't come, it wouldn't have ended well.
