Keshi moved with a lively pace over the unfamiliar terrain, though with undoubtedly added caution. The hurricane had messed with his mind and still he peered at the sky with added terror. He huffed as he trotted along, Odessa sitting upon his back securely. She was out to find herbs, anything she could get her claws on. Salsola was in desperate need and she was determined to do all she could to help. Especially as Ankh was older now, weaned too, it was much easier to leave him at home. And even if Imhotep and her were both out, Novak was there. Also, if he needed to go out, Ankh was also old enough to go out with him. And almost old enough to venture around the territory on his own.
Pulling back on the reins, Keshi stopped, lifting his fore hoofs up off the ground an inch or so. Calming down, he looked towards Odessa who gave him a gentle pat of reassurance before she slipped off of his back to collect the herbs that grew a few metres away. Slipping her knife out she bundled them into her satchel carefully.
