Fortunately there was as yet no sign of pursuit, ao Astra could safely
turn round and go back for Eliza. Relieved to find that the girl was
unhurt, Astra chided her as she climbed back on: "This time be sure to
hold on really tight... No, not there! Round my waist, dammit!"
Chuckling, Eliza moved her hands lower down, and Astra set off once more. Galloping was exhilarating, she had already discovered. The wind blowing through her hair, the sensation of speed, the way that she seemed to eat up the ground. When she had the opportunity, she wanted to try out her jumping abilities as well. It seemed that she might get that chance sooner than she had expected. At the far end of the dirt street down which she was charging, she could see that some men were hurriedly trying to build a barricade. Reaibn must have communicated with them by some magical means, she guessed.
