Any of the Wayfarers could've headed off towards the Abbey to find the Saint they called the Wandering Light. Anyone could be making this long and frankly exhausting trip. But Laura had bumped into Dave to ask him about Greenbough's orchard, and he'd asked if she was going, said 'maybe you could interview a fucking god', and maybe she could. She was the only Wayfarer who wrote for the Gazette, at least so far. So here she was.
Why couldn't she have turned up as a bird, though...?
At least Laura had found a walking stick that helped her feel like the trek was easier. And the dry breeze certainly helped with the day's heat. Still, it'd be a long walk. It was too bad that caravans headed over the mountain were so rare, or they could've hitched a ride, maybe.
She looked over her shoulder at the rest of the party with her. She didn't think she really knew any of them, not yet. Would she know them all that much better by the time their mission was over...?
How did you make small talk, anyway? Nice weather for it, was the best she could think of. So dull. They were going to see a holy place, weren't they?
"Never been somewhere like this," she said to herself, quietly. "Never really been religious."
