I was picked up by Hauria and Shen Yu the moment the sun rose from the horizon. It would've been a beautiful view but I just spent a night with neither food nor sleep so I was tired. And maybe a little cranky.
"How are you feeling?" asked Hauria in a low voice.
"Do you really have to ask? I'm tired and sleepy and hungry. I can eat an entire cow if I have to." I seethed.
"Good response but that would be bad for your health."
"Shut it. I want to go home."
"Cranky. Right."
They helped me up and led me out of the imperial city. I never got to stay awake for the entire ride though. When I woke up, I was already inside my room in Prince Wei's mansion.
"Do you feel okay now?" asked Hauria as she entered the room.
"Just a little sore."
"That should be gone in a while. Here."
