Morning came, and Xenia couldn't help but feel excited for the upcoming Ritual of Marking set to take place at the Black Claw Pack tomorrow night. Even if it had already been an hour since they had set off towards their destination, she couldn't find it in herself to be drowsy despite being up far earlier than she normally would.
Currently, she and Darius were on their one horse, their disguises billowing in the wind as they posed as commoners. She had proposed doing so since she missed doing something like this in a long while. Besides, the plan was for them to travel on a horse by day in the first place. By night, once they've reached the halfway point, Darius would then shift into his wolf form to travel all the way towards the Black Claw Territory. If everything went right, they'll arrive tomorrow late morning just in time to prepare for the Ritual at night.
