Chương 57: Chapter 57

The following morning, about an hour into their trip...

"You know this would be a lot quicker if you would let me teleport us to Stone Hallow." The place Samuel had told them to start with. A journey whose distance she still didn't know as Terrence had only given her a vague answer in reply when asked. A few days, maybe more he'd said. Long enough to get some pretty decent blisters on his feet with the stupid boots he'd chosen to wear.

"You heard what father said and much as I dislike you, I don't intend to turn you into a beacon for magic gone bad. And just so you know, this would also be a lot quicker if instead of being a useless wizard you could shape shift into an animal." He'd make a wonderful panther, all sleek grace and muscles, she thought. It did occur to her to shift and take off running, but then the blasted jerk would probably just teleport there ahead of her, so she'd still end up losing instead of getting ahead.

This quest already sucked.
