She sighed, looking around for any sign of hostility as she walked, thinking of bandits more than wild creatures. "I'd like to find a reliable way to get home as well, but at the same time, I think there's a lot to be learned in this place." She was already trying to further her research on magical healing, but more than that, the infinite worlds people seemed to come from--it was too fascinating for Neirenn to desire a permanent return.
