Ja! We ought to thread again, once Giuseppe learns some English XD[/html]
The language barrier proved too much, and Giuseppe learned nothing about the location or well-being of his lady-love. A frustrated sigh escaped from his lips. Clearly, if he stayed on this continent much longer, he'd have to learn the language. Italian was not commonly spoken, and although he could understand some Spanish and a smattering of French, it was never nearly enough. Time for such trivial concerns later; there was the present situation to survive.
After the last exchange, the traveling wolves had little to say to one another. Had the situation been any less dire, Giuseppe might have struck up a bawdy song of some sort, but his thoughts were a thousand miles, a thousand faces, and a thousand concerns away. Eventually, the trio wandered over the burning mountain, across into lands protected by wind and water. There, they would part ways. Giu had his desperate search for Maria and Beppe to continue; Skoll had the injured Phoenix to tend. Perhaps they might meet again under more favorable circumstances, should the fates be kind.
