Recovery had been smooth with the shadow of the spider never too far away. The sand man she had seen less often, but she knew he had been there on the sidelines.

He fell into step silently and, as the pair neared where Xiao had prepared a travelling bundle of desert meats and fruits to give her strength during the journey, her smile gave way to a face of hardened lines.

"Sand man has been kind. Anything you wish, I give you." A debt she wished to repay, for their hospitality had not gone unnoticed.
