The young, brown-haired female pushed her way past several large leaves and other such vegetation as she made her way to an open spot in the forest before she smiled, giving a slight nod. "This place will do just nicely. Deraj?" she called out over her shoulder, waiting for her companion to emerge from the dense forest foliage that she had easily pushed her way through. It was another few minutes before Deraj would emerge, however; Aila had already set down her bags that had been strapped onto her back and was pulling out the camping stove.
"Aila, you know that I can't walk as fast as you when these darned ribbons see a need to wrap themselves around my legs and slow me down. They can be helpful for carrying things or for armor, but... that's just in my Shielupe form." Deraj said, letting the rest of the bags that he had fall to the ground as he flopped down beside them, his curly black hair wet from the humidity and sweat.
Aila shook her head as she said, "Oh, Deraj; you know that we won't have to deal with those restricting pet forms that we have now much longer. I'm gonna miss being able to climb mountains with no problems, but... Slynxes aren't fire elementals, like I am at heart. They're ice elementals. I can't... this doesn't work for me."
"Can we just get the camp set up now?" Deraj asked, slowly standing up and dragging a rather large bag--no, not large; gigantic--off to the side and began sliding the bag off of the contents inside.
