Made Me Insecure

Ciná chuckled softly as she agreed that this was better now that the sun had gone down and wasn't baking them. Even he had to agree it was more pleasant weather for walking around, through he would have been fine to do it during the day as well. He replied with a small shrug as she looked around at the cedar trees around them and mentioned how she could have managed here during the daylight—likely thanks to all the shade they provided. "That's alright. I didn't mind waiting till the evening. Plus, I wouldn't want to send you into heatstroke or something. It'd be one hell of a trip to drag your body back to you family in the north." He laughed lightly with a little grin, joking and bantering with her more easily now that he had wrapped his head around the idea of being around her again. It was strange to so abruptly be confronted with his past, but at least Onyx had been one of the few good things about his childhood.

She stood and he began to lead her down along the river that flowed through the falls, passing by some of the smaller drops in the river that created smaller waterfalls and moving down more steep slopes where the longer drops happened. He glanced her way when she asked if there was a reason he wanted to start here and he looked around at the cedar trees that let some of the moonlight filter through. "It's just one of my favorite places in Auster. I like the trees and the sound of the water. Plus, it's pretty central to a lot of other places so if you're looking to do some traveling around Auster it's a good point to come back to. I hung out here a lot when I first left Boreas." He nodded in the direction of Fenmyre, adding, "The pack I've been living in is just that way too so I can come out here and not be too far from home."
