She eventually found a small alcove away from the center city, and she looked up at him.

“How’s this?”

 

She seemed pleased by his approval, shrugging off her bag.

“Thank you. Where should we look first?”

 

She laughed a little, coming over to him earnestly.

“Let’s be honest; we’re just going to wait until I have another vision, aren’t we?”

 

She took it, looking up at him as she took his hand as well.

“It’s alright,” she said gently. “It’s going to be dark soon anyway. I’m just sorry that it takes me so long.”

 

“No,” she agreed, resting her head against him. “But still, I know it must be a little frustrating.”

 

She gave him a quick smile, but fell silent.

 

She seemed excited, looking around.

“This place seems great. Maybe you’d want to settle here?”

 

She frowned a little, looking up at him.

“Well, if you decide against it, I mean. I’m trying not to get my hopes up.”

 

She gave him a small smile before her eyes widened and she took his hand.

“We should get up high,” she said enthusiastically. “So we can see the whole city!”

 

She seemed very excited and began to walk, heading for a large building nearby. It was mostly quiet compared to the rest of the town, and there were stone stairs leading up to the roof that she began to climb.

They got to the top and she hurried to the edge, looking intrigued.
