Dragoncrest Cliffs I'm letting you go like a hot horseshoe

Fennec showed no signs of surprise at Alyx's reveal.  She'd come here under that very assumption and, honestly, would have been more surprised if her sister had changed her mind.  She knew the drive to get away (and still felt it, a little more than occasionally).  She'd assumed she would make the journey home alone and prepared for it, mentally mapping (most) of the route and the directions in her mind.  Landmarks in sound, scent, and direction that she could follow.  Luckily the coast and rivers made it pretty damn clear.

She was surprised, however, at Erzulie's offer.  As excitedly as she'd jumped on the chance at a trip, she herself staying hadn't even crossed her mind.  She was more than a little surprised they'd offer.  No, just along for the ride.  I promised I'd be around back home.  It was a long way home.  The thought of crossing that distance completely solo was as exhilarating as it was terrifying.  I'll stick around for a day or two though?  If you don't mind?  She could grab a sleep or two before heading out, then, and see how Alyx settled in.  Something about just dumping her hear and turning straight around felt wrong.  She was going to miss her.
