Marae goes to the storage room, gets a suit of leather armor and hands it to Fae. "Hopefully, this'll do for now."
Having finished her prayers Fae returns just in time for Marae to give her a suit of leather armor for her sister. "Thank you so much." She says happily. She returns to her sister with the armor.
"Let's see how it fits." She says.
"Thank you. I think we should eat first, I can put it on when we leave." Cyna responds as she takes the armor from her twin.
About an hour or so later after everyone has eaten and done everything else they need to do, like picking up bedding, using the bathroom one last time, and making sure they have all of their stuff, they all go outside to a large open area.
Taking a deep breath, relaxing, and reminding herself that what happened last time wasn't her fault, Tesia closes her eyes and raises her arms to the sky as she lets out another loud and shrill sounding call. A few minutes later two large eagles land as they did last time. Looking around she says, "Okay....if everyone is set we should really get going. We still have about eight hours of flying ahead of us. We'll try to stop and take a break about after four hours. We'll stay together in the same formation as last time, just signal if We need to stop sooner."
Stepping away from the others she transforms into her huge eagle form and then lies on the ground as the other two eagles do the same for their riders to climb on them.
Before the group mounts up, Sādhanā moves over to Arista and places a hand on her shoulder, whispering the words to her now customary protective spell.
Smiling she gives Sadhana a hug, "Thank you.....for everything."
Marae points to the west. "Follow the road until you reach the river, then go north."
"Anytime." the magus replies returning the hug before getting onto Tesia's back.
Making one last check of her gear and giving her wife a kiss on the beak, Rhadaya utters an arcane phrase in the windy whispering Auran language and floats up to settle on Tes back at the base of her neck.
Tesia moves her head up and down to show she understands the directions before leaning into Rhy slightly as she's kissed on the beak. Once everyone is settled and ready to go, Tesia takes a running start and launches herself into the sky with the other two eagles following quickly behind her. As a group they turn and start following the road as directed, one large eagle on each side of her as they fly in a closed formation. Their recent experience showing it's effect on Tesia as she chooses a closer and more maneuverable formation to fly in. One that would make it easier to take evasive action if they happened to be attacked in the air again.
As they fly, Tesia keeps her eyes open for any dangers.
She follows the road west as instructed and once she sees the river they turn and start heading north.
Alethiro helped Arista up on the eagles's back and didn't let go of her hand the entire time. However, he did keep his eyes peeled for any danger.

Tesia sees nothing threatening as she comes to the river. Upon turning north, the river narrows a bit but it is easy to follow.
"Chalandra I mean. I'll admit the possibility of her showing up here while I'm gone does worry me a bit." Drago clarified.
After three more hours of following the river north, Tesia starts to descend and looks for a safe place to land for a break.
Tesia sees a fairly open area near the river bank that would be an ideal place to stop.
Enjoying the feeling of the air rushing past them and the complete sense of freedom, Rhadaya finds the flight at once relaxing and exhilarating, especially after realizing that they wouldn't be dealing with another surprise attack.
Calling out to the other two eagles she starts her decent towards the open area where they can all land safely. Once they get landed, Tesia lies down on the ground to let Rhy and Sadhana off before she changes back to herself.

"This is so much fun!" Fae exclaims once back on the ground.

Nodding she looks at Fae, "Yes....it can be quite fun when you're not being attacked by a bi+<h of a Dragon. Okay...this is a short rest break to eat, personal needs, and a chance to stretch our legs. I'd like to be back in the air in an hour or so." She says before going to check on her feathered friends.
After getting off the large eagle she takes rations and water skins out of their bag and starts passing them around for anyone who needed some.
After making sure the other two eagles are alright, she gets something to eat and drink for her and Rhy and takes it to her love.
Stretching her legs, Rhadaya looks up as her love approaches giving her a loving smile. "How're you feeling baby?"
She shrugs, "A little tired, but mostly relieved that we weren't attacked again. Here, I brought us some rations and water. Want to go sit somewhere and eat a little bit? I can't eat too much with four more hours of flying left to go. How about you sweetheart, how are you feeling?" She asks before giving her a loving kiss.
"Mmm...even better now." she says with a smile, swooning slightly. "The feeling of being in the open air...I absolutely love it. " she says beaming up at Tes. "Let's go sit on that rock over there."
She nods and follows her love to the indicated rock. Sitting with Rhy she hands her a waterskin and some of the rations, "Yeah....it really gives you a feeling of freedom when you're up in the sky. The only feeling that comes close to it, is the feeling I get when I'm with you."
Alethiro takes a seat next to Arista and helps her pass out the rations.
"How are feeling?" He asked his wife.
Once everyone else has something to eat and drink she finds a place to sit abd eat with Alethiro. Handing him some rations and water she shrugs, "I'm feeling okay I guess. It's different flying through the air, but it's nice to not have to walk everywhere for once. I don't feel quite as tired as I usually do." She answers him before giving him a kiss on the cheek, "How about you love? How are you feeling?" She asks before starting to eat.
Once she was done with breakfast, Elsa locked the house and went to find her older Half-Sister.
