After our round of haggling the awkward atmosphere between us had mostly dissipated thankfully, Dawn even uncurled and gave Derek a curious sniff before returning to my neck and falling back asleep. "Ha it would appear the little one has a favourite place already! I think you may be spoiling her." He states with a lighthearted chuckle.
Laughing aswell I couldn't help but agree. "Well I don't deny that but how can I not pamper her she is just too adorable! And it is supprisingly comfortable, plus if I know where she is it is easier to keep her safe." Nodding at that statement we continue on until the suns pass their highest point. At that time we stop to have a light lunch and let the beasts of burden rest. I learnt that they were called Oken and were a mainstay for long distance waggon travel due to their ability to pull heavy loads at a constant speed for prolonged periods of time.
