NIKI
"You are forgiven," Niki assures her, his playful haughtiness entirely ruined by his drowned rat appearance and the hood that shields much of his face from the downpour. "So this is your first time really out on your own? That is very brave of you, to set out despite everything. I am glad, though, that you do not have to spend any longer wandering through Ludo's Woods. It may be the herald who sponsors the Festival of Lights, but it is far too fond of trickery as well."
Nodding readily, though Niki will have to wait to see where the festival lands this year, he can't deny that it would be nice to assist even if he doesn't bring a lantern for himself. Reaching out to clutch the side of the wagon as it lurches, and wincing as he's jostled against the crates and sacks, he peeps out towards the driver and smiles. "I could not agree more," he says. "But luckily, I think that swift change of trajectory has put us on a beeline for the village. We are almost there."

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
