Xiuhcoatl expected direct responses to her questions, and so when Nochtli began to chatter away about her own opinions, the woman gave her a pointed look; but the other Amazon moved on quickly, and so did Xiuh. The more she learned about Tezcacoatl's condition, the more fuel she was granted in order to seek him out. Powered by her quickly rising ire, they would make good time and return to the boy's camp before too long.

She could not get over some of the facts that were, shared, however. The mention of Vikings made Xiuh slow abruptly, her fur bristling. "Vikings - here? No doubt they thought to use the boy against us. It is good that he has broken away from them." The woman looked at Nochtli carefully as she said this, searching her dark face for hints to the contrary. "And to choose to fight, without his guard. The gods must have been watching over him."

There was no other way to explain how Tezcacoatl had survived so much. Not to Xiuh, anyway. She made a mental note to give thanks later, once she was situated among the Prince's ranks. "I will fix him." She confided to the dark woman. With a thoughtful lick to her lips, Xiuhcoatl motioned with her head as if to prompt Nochtli to move faster. "Whatever it takes. We will all return home soon, I will make sure of it."
