Styx bit down lightly on his tongue as he waited for her to say something -- anything, just so he'd know what was going on.

Here's fine.He wasn't sure if it really was fine, of course, but for her, he'd live in an anthill.
I'll be happy to sleep on solid ground again.It felt a bit strange to set camp this early in the day, but they had been up for several hours already, and overall he hadn't slept too well on the ship.
