"Y'know..." Gale starts,shortening his stride. "Why are you still here?Like I mean,yeah,I want you here but,why haven't you already left?Most of the ones I take leave within half a year.It's already been one and a half." He states,turning towards a tavern. |

"Because I guess I want to show you that i'm loyal......" She said, pausing and thinking. "If you end up wanting me to leave, I will. Just tell me to go" She said quietly |
