NIKI
"The Guardian's Treehouse?" Niki raises his eyebrows at that, but says nothing, merely nodding his understanding to Maea. "If you frequent the village as often as I do, there is no reason we should not run into each other. I am there every few days at a minimum." To bring new creations for merchants to sell, to order supplies and have them sent to his home, or to merely enjoy the bustle of people without having to reach out and touch it directly.
They reach the fork in the road a few moments later, and Niki offers Maea a grateful nod. "I should be just fine," he assures her. "Do not let me keep you from home. Have a good day, Maea - hopefully we will meet again soon." Offering her a light wave as they part ways, the boy's footsteps are no faster for having left her company, but he certainly seems more at ease now that civilisation is back within easy reach.

my body's on the line now, I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
