Loki doesn't object to the pace, hiking her skirts up slightly so they don't get snagged on the undergrowth and jogging lightly alongside Blaze to keep up.

In contrast to the Exo's powerful tread, Loki's steps are almost silent, as faint as a light breeze of the leaf litter.

She pauses and tilts her head at the way Blaze slows. "Are you all right?"
