Chapter 70: Fiancé (II)
Elizabeth's POV
We were on our journey back to the capital city, saying goodbye to the village and province- we went with the same path.
Hunting for food, building our own fire and camp but this time I have a friend my age to talk to about random things.
"Hey, princess. You see this herb? It's really good when you put this on toast and egg." (Katia) hands me a few basil leaves and I smile, taking them to be part of our ration for dinner.
She taught me a few more plants we can eat safely, which part to leave and what to do right after.
Katia hasn't learned how to fish, so I asked for a route where there's a nearby river to catch them.
"Throw the net and pull!" I shout, Katia throws the net into the running river water and starts pulling it. She grits her teeth fighting against the waving current of the river, taking off her shoes she wrestled with our dinner. "I almost got it!"
