"Civilians have different perceptions." Terka explained. "Terka's clan sisters fight on, even when their limbs are freshly severed. Civilian children, females in particular, break down when they get no more than a small cut. Terka has seen into the minds of the entire spectrum..."
Kaori started whimpering as she grabbed onto Terka's arm. "I want... my mommy..."
Terka leaned over, letting Kaori cry on her shoulder. "Also, in that brief instance Terka linked himself with her mind, he saw a gap in her memories. As if she never lived through a large portion of her own life...."

"Well I'm not really a fighter," Yerth said, "but a life at sea will toughen you up just the same." He walked over to Kaori and knelt down. "I'm sure it hurts but don't worry, you'll be ok," he said. "You'll see your mommy soon."

Terka paused, then looked out the side window. "Where are we going anyway?"

"Well we can't exactly go back to Oroeth," Yerth said. "So that's a very good question. We could sail to Salius and dock in Tophiopolis, but that's controlled by Nocturnia too. Doubt they'll be looking for us though. We could try for Ethius, but that's got the same problem, and Nocturnia just captured that place so there'd be more soldiers."

"Nocturnians usually welcome non hostile parties to their towns." Terka noted. "We should be okay sailing into Tophiopolis harbor."
Kaori leaned back, laying down again.

"Ok then, I'll set a course," Yerth said.

Grega sat up, rubbing her eyes. "Mmmm... what's going on...?"
"You're awake." Terka said.

"That's just about everyone," Yerth commented. "I doubt that guy over there is going to be coming around for a while though."

"So... w-we're on a boat?" Kaori said nervously.
"That's correct." Terka responded.
"I ran off and left for that place..." Kaori said. "It was just like back home..."

"Don't worry missy," Yerth said. "This boat might not look like much, but she's pretty tough. She'll get you to land safely."
