章 293: Spiritual Rewards

The heron spirit continued to harass them through the window until well after sundown, when - thanks to Stella running point on distracting the night watch - they were able to steal off of the ship, with Kir flying Kordia across the waters of the lake as he followed the heron, which glowed light blue to his manasight.
