Banuien can hitch a ride with Siuahn. *nod nod*
Clambering down from Nyaki's back after Banuien's dismount, Siuahn looked out at the lake for a long moment. She turned her head a fraction as Nyaki's voice tentatively crept into her thoughts. <Siuahn, I'm hungry. The others have found meat, and I wish to join them... Will you be all right?" <I'm not entirely helpless. Go feed. I'll most likely do the same...> She smiled, her pale eyes weary, but warm as she watched the she-dragon leap into the air. Walking hesitantly towards where Eragon sat, tending to the injured elf woman as usual; the young man had taken it upon himself to nurse her back to health. She stood a few feet away, gazing at him thoughtfully as he sat himself back down again, at the elf's side, and heaved an exhausted sigh. "Eragon..." Siuahn said softly, cautiously approaching him and laying a gentle hand on his shoulder. Pale eyes met brown eyes; the soft, carefree look she had first seen in those eyes now gone, hardened by the crushing blows that had been dealt to his spirit, to his heart and hope. "Can we... talk?"
