The dove bobbed its head in intense thought. It never had to think so hard about anything before. "Will it be enough...? Is it really alright?"
"That's for them to figure out." Tome took the bird back into her hands and held it at her chest so they could both face forward. "They're psychics. That's what I asked them to come with me for. So let them worry about it. If they need to fight, they'll fight. You're going to lead us to that ring and I'm going to carry you the whole way. So. Let's go!" Tome's tone was as persistently straight-forward as ever but, for once, there was restraint in her words. After all, she wasn't yelling at a bunch of slackers.
No.
This dove...
It had worked harder than anyone she'd ever met in her life. Especially her. Her sudden awareness of this made no difference in the moment. The monsoon wasn't going anywhere. She gave one last look to Teru and Mob and embarked out into the storm.
