As for this distance, he recognized one of the two female wanderers going along the street and dismissed his decision to rob them. Lina Inverse!

Gevan whistles to his companions and signalises the 'feared dragon' to clarify who's going to cross their way.
Appalled they twitch and hide in some coppice to not be seen.

It's a wonderful day and a wonderful morning. The sky was as blue as the ocean and the sun shines as golden as money down on Lina Inverse.
Lina Inverse ? Well actually, it IS Lina Inverse, but some sort of weird... well... let's say 'mood'... hangs on the forest,
when she passes by the trees and coppice. The sun worries and hurries up to reach the farest spot on the sky.
Perhaps she thinks that if Lina is in THAT sort of mood, it maybe good, if the day pass by fast and silently.
Maybe the sun is right.

Beside Naga the Serpent walks Lina Inverse, the so called flat-chested, furious, feared bandit hunter and dra-mata and... writes poetry. Naga's listening to her newest poem to the birds of the forest, and plays sometimes on her fluete to imitate some birds flying through the air.
When Lina ended, she looks honestly to Lina and put the fluete away.
"Your poem is very beautiful", she admires and looks along the street, "at last, there ends the forest. Then we are in Saillune City!" "What? Where?", Lina asks surprisingly and followed Naga's finger to the east, "ah, now I see it, too"
"Come on, let us play some wanderer's song until we reach the city.", she proclaimed happily and begins singing their canon, they worked out.

Gevan is very irritated. Doesn't she come along shortly, he pondered.
Yes, three, maybe four days - his memory has a great black hole there, but definitely she killed half of his gang last week.
The new chef of the gang takes a minute's silence in commoration of his dead comrades. It was awful, really cruel, and since this incident, he looks twice who's coming, before robbing out a sorceress, who haven't concerns using the dragon slave.
If she really looks out for bandits, what rumors says ?
"She's gone", he shouts, when this human being, whose presence can petrify dragons, has been out of earshot.
"Let's mourn about the victims she left"
Even if they are enemies, Gevan don't wish anybody to mess with HER.
"It might be the Tiger-Heads, she has a frightenly mood." he whispers more to himself, "Let's look at them and what's left"
He doesn't have concerns about the gold - with no doubt, Lina Inverse has it... but the Tiger-Heads are... or maybe WAS the outnumbering gang in the forest.
Gevan sighs. Maybe there are survivors - he expected the worst.
