That wouldn't be a bad idea, especially since so many of us are here. Hah! So much for you and Mikasa having your quiet life here in Ellipsa, hmm?

[Though he probably likes seeing so many familiar people, at least Hange hopes so. Procuring some supplies is a good idea though. Guess a commander's work is never done.. ]

Have you explored this area of the world before? If not, let's keep going forward until we find anything notable. As long as we stick together, it will be fine! It's just sand.

[Jean chuckles a little at that.]

We've had a quiet enough life for years now. What's a little action when you get to see friends again?

[He's pretty much confirming what Hange suspects there, but he is glad to see them all again.]

I have been in this desert once, but we didn't explore it a lot. We just did the quest and headed back as soon as possible. Though there are quite a few ruins we can take shelter in whenever the sandstorms gets too bad.

Well, I'm glad you're enjoying it here as much as I am! I'll just stay here, thanks!

[Not that they have anything to go back to!! H-haha!]

Since we're both summer power holders, we can manipulate flames if we want for some extra light. At the very least, it should stop us from losing each other..

[Hands on hips and taking in a big breath to psych themselves up, Hange then reaches out with a hand, finger pointing east.. no north... now north-east..]

That way! I have a good feeling about it!

[Jean's already made it clear he's not going anywhere either, so he just nods with a smile.

Though the smile does falter a little at the seemingly random path choosing. Would they be alright? Probably.]

Then let's go that way. I'll watch our backs as we go.

[It leads them in the general direction they want to go, but so they aren't walking into the winds so much. Hange could argue that it is a decade of scouting experience that leads to such decisions, but it's also equally likely that they simply picked a random direction and went with it.]

Alright! Let's head out then~

[And so the pair set off on their trek, further out into the windy desert.]

[And for a while it seems like there's only a whole lot of nothing out here, but eventually in the distance is what seems to be a giant sand dune?]

...Let's see what's on the other side.

[rustyhonesty]

[It's definitely windier here than it was last time. An ideal weather for finding the flowers, at least. It's not a full sandstorm yet, but he has no doubt they could end up in one soon enough.

A whole lot of nothing meant, at least, that there are not cactibirds flying at their faces.]

It's worth a try. Hopefully there's more than just sand over there.

[Up the dune they go. Good thing they're used to hiking. Jean's slightly taller so he can see something a little before Hange does.]

I see some cacti in the distance. At least something that could be.
