After we spent the whole afternoon at the waterfall, we decided to get back to the meadow. We found Pisey, still sticking her head inside a flower bush, munching. I managed to drag her back and then we flew out of the mountain.
I let my princess hold the reins of our Ashva, and we soared through the woodland together.
"Are you hungry?" I asked Amarisa, who shook her head in response. It wasn't wise for either of us to go without eating. My eyes looked for a place we could land and rest.
"If you are hungry, we can stop at one of the temples for a meal," Amarisa suggested.
"We can do that?" I said.
"Yes, indeed." Amarisa nodded. "The servants and the temple guardians are duty-bound to keep the offerings anew. There is no sin in helping oneself with the leftover from the gods."
I instinctively rubbed my tummy as a sign of hunger.
"Well, even your lips are the only thing I crave, I still have to live on food, too."
Amarisa laughed and turned to pinch my cheek.
