Boreal padded along at the back of the group, casting about for scents that underlay the fresh spoor of wolves and humans.

Tal flicked a few stray drops off his face and stuck his tongue out at his companion before turning back to Sah with a wry grin. "It always is. Only reason t'come t'this heat-blasted region, if y'ask me." He joined in the de-shoe-ening and rolled up the legs of his pants before settling his legs into the springs with a contented sigh as the heat immediately went to work soothing his feet and calves. He glanced over at the sound of metal clearing a scabbard, brows raised in silent question as the hunter started playing with his sword in the public bath, but at the request he let out a snort. "Sure. But what're you...?"
Oh. Oh. His brows stayed up as Sah's magic coalesced into the blade, making it look somehow even fancier than it had been before. "Well, that's new," he grudgingly admitted, leaning over to admire the upgraded blade. "Guess you're not doin' so badly at th'Cadamy after all." And with an impish grin he scooted a little further away and kicked a splash of water towards his friend. "What about your defense though?"
