Numira hopped excitedly between her two feet as she saw Kiernan appear at the door and was already chasing after her, a grin spread across her face as before, but now she could feel the rush and adrenaline of a childish excitement, the kind she used to get when she was young and raced her brothers. Though she didn't think about them so much, not anymore. She turned on her heel before Kiernan got too close and pushed off her toes, breaking into a dash, like a sprint. The gravity of this planet was a little lighter, just enough, enough that she felt lighter every time she ran here, it was only a tenth less than what she was used to but that made enough of a difference, for it allowed her to be quicker and more agile than anywhere that could have been considered her norm.

She kept up a strong pace, moving and weaving carefully between the trees. It wasn't flat out sprinting but more like catlike leaps forward that allowed her to gracefully maneuver the landscape in spite not being familiar with it, she could figure her paths out rather quickly so long as she kept her eyes open and stayed on the move, adrenaline and quick thinking did the rest as she found narrow rocks to run across and fallen trees in the forest to slide down on their moss-strewn trunks.

As the apparent race between the two continued, Numira noticed a long patch of grass, not a well trodden path but it was just enough that as she leaped into it she turned around, placing her arms behind her back and started hopping backwards at a similar pace to before, she was still smiling, her cheeks redder and warmer fromt he exercise as her eyes peered back at Kiernan, it was almost a mocking gesture, toying with him as she continued to run, or rather jump backwards quickly, a light giggle escaping her,
"You are not tired, Kiernan?" She called back to him with a smile, her pace seemed to slow only slightly as she took gently, swaying movements and turned on her heel again. Her hood fell away as she brought her arms forward again, long green hair trailing behind her on the air, even though it remained clasped, the long ponytail still swayed gently behind her. She would have wondered how close they were, if she wasn't having fun. She wasn't even concerned about the possibility of bandit attacks, not with Kiernan here. Now she had some-one she could rely on and she could fight beside without fear.
