Chapitre 468: Harvest Fair (part two)

1100 hours Haven, Nix's Horse Ranch

"Nix?" A dark woman holding a spear peeked around the corner of the stable. Her black hair was cut short and she held an ornate helm under one arm. A bright smile formed on her face when she saw him, he was hard at work, mucking out a stall. "Don't your ranchhands do that?"

"Hey!" Nix felt the same warm feelings he always had in Sharl's presence. "Haven't seen you in a while. Did Floyd come?"

Sharl shook her head slightly and lay her equipment on a bin before wrapping up the Inferno leader in a hug. Her normal reservations always faded around him. "Did you miss me?"

"Yep," he admitted. "Did you just get here?"

"Stopped by the temple first to talk to your dad." Sharl stepped to one side when he grabbed the handles of a wheelbarrow and started heading toward the gate. The large pile of manure on the other side caused her to decide not to follow. "I'll just wait here."
