Sage nodded. "It normally takes me a day and a half, but it'll be slower with three of us," he noted. Liz would need to eat more often than him too, and it was just more work in general. "I'd plan on getting there in two days or so, by noon on the second day.' He nodded when she said she just wanted out of the castle, humming in agreement. "I much prefer the forest," he noted.

Sage nodded, pointing to a river a little bit ahead of them. "Well just follow this south most of the way, then branch off through some woods. It's in the middle of that," he explained.

Sage wandered along next to her, mostly silent as they moved. After a few hours, Liz started to cry, so he pulled out a bottle he's stolen as well as some powdered milk that would last them a while. The old women were rude enough and had plenty of money, so he had no issues taking their supplies. Liz quieted down once she had the bottle, and they moved on again quickly after that.

Sage didn't mind not talking. It was nice to have someone to talk to if they wanted to talk....but just being together, listening to the bird calls and the sounds of the forest was nice too. Eventually though, he knew they were both hungry, so he spoke up. "Let's stop here for lunch."

Sage settled down once she nodded, sitting on a soft patch of grass and feeding Liz again before he touched his own food or water, despite being both thirsty and hungry. Liz came first. Once that was done, he ate quickly, knowing the longer they stopped the longer it would take to get to the cabin. And he didn't know if people were looking for them.
