When Balthier brought up going to The Hallows to see their mother to tell her about their father's departure, she refused to let him go without her this time. She wasn't sure if it was the thought of missing out on seeing Aranea again for a second time or the thought that she would be without him for days at a time, but either way it pushed her to join in on the trip to Auster. She was in a far better place physically than she had once been, but once they set out she quickly realized just how far she still had to go. She pushed herself harder than she probably should have, but she felt bad for making their pace so slow and dragging out this trip that might have taken him half as long if she wasn't involved. Even still, her brother still did everything he could to make the trip easier on her and she stuck by his side the whole way, forever grateful for everything he did for her.
When they finally reached the border of the pack that was their destination, she sat back heavily onto her haunches with a shaky sigh. Her gaze lifted up to Balthier's when he bumped her head with his own, smiling softly as his paw brushed her back. She leaned into his side and tried to ignore how much everything ached. Her paws, her legs, her back, even her lungs all ached from the long trip. She just kept herself going by thinking about how worth it this would all be if they could reconnect with one of their parents. The thought of truly losing both of them hurt too much to consider.
