"Food for the journey? Heck yeah! Though, I doubt we will be able to carry more than a light snack. You are correct about my garb though. I require no armor, for my Seichi style is its own armor. I already have a weapon that I will not part with. As for clothing, I have trained my body to handle all types of climates from the coldest mountains to the hottest deserts. As for you Dreggan, do not be so hard on Nina. She can come if she likes. The more the merrier! Regardless of how powerful she is, she will be fine for at least the first part of the journey, for it will be largely in our home territory and there will be no enemies the likes of us wouldn't be able to protect even an infant from. By the time the journey becomes more perilous, we will know whether she has what it takes. Welcome aboard Nina!"
Matt turned then to face the north woods. "Shall we be off then? Our journey is great and our time is little!" Suddenly, a dark figure above the woods caught Matt's eye. Was it his imagination, or was something big flying their way?
