She thought for a moment, sighing as she shook her head. "I can't, Ben, I really can't." Rowan murmured quietly, avoiding his gaze. |
|  |
|

Benjamin stayed quiet for a couple minutes processing her decision. "Oh, alright then. I just want you to know that I wont be coming back. After this mission I won't be returning to Hawke with you, I'm sorry" Benjamin gave her a soft look before watching as the sun set over the horizon. The night sky soon swallowing any remaining sunlight. |

Rowan nodded, pressing a kiss to his cheek. "Well then," She started, pausing for a moment. "Better enjoy tomorrow while it lasts." She murmured, letting the silence settle before clearing her throat, standing up. "We should get going, find somewhere to stay for the night." |

Benjamin nodded as he stood up, whistling for Feather. The gelding perked up before lazily trotting towards the two, he gently shoved Benjamin back. Benja stumbled back a little before giving Feather a light pat. He swung his leg mounting the horse as he waited for Rowan. |

Twister was still ground tied, munching on a branch and smacking Feather with it. Rowan grabbed her reins, collecting them before mounting, readjusting her packs as she glanced back to make sure Benjamin was ready. |

|
| |
|
Feather pinned his ears, tossing his head away. Benjamin chucked at the two, before kissing him into a walk. Benjamin watched the waves once final time before they left. |

Rowan walked in silence for a moment, eventually speaking. "Want to get that motel for the night we were talking about earlier?" She asked with a faint smirk, guiding Twister back onto the deer trail. |
| |
|
| |
|
"ye sure" Ben returned her small smirk w a smile as he followed behind her and Twister. |
|
|
| |
|
"We're doing it the normal way this time," She called over her shoulder with a chuckled, easing her stallion into a quick paced lope along the trail, eventually reaching the cobblestone road. |
| |
|
| |
|
Benjamin glanced around his surroundings as Feather trotted behind Twister. "We almost there?" He slightly shouted as he was a big of a distance behind. |
