Chapter 142: Separation
A week later, Taliyah filled the crater of corrosion, and the moment of separation came as scheduled.
"Little master, are you really not going with us?" Taliyah pinched her sleeve and asked one last question.
"No, it's closer to Bilgewater, and it would be the opposite to follow you to Berguin and back."
Karn looked at the simple girl calmly, the desert wind blowing the sand on her face, and Taliyah's eyes were moist, and she didn't know whether she had entered the sand or couldn't suppress the reluctance in her heart.
But reluctance is ultimately reluctant.
"The place I'm going to is the sea, there aren't a lot of stones, it's not for you to exercise your abilities. You're going to Freljord. ”
"You can get there by boat, faster than you can walk."
"But in the end, there is still separation." Karn stopped her.
It was possible to go to Bilgewater via Piltover by water, and to go to Belgüen with Taliyah and then part, but the southern jungle had what he had to get, so he chose the overland route.
Taliyah didn't continue to fight, silently watching her feet, and gradually determined her path.
Karn pulled out a parchment map, and although the route, range of movement, and safe areas were already marked, he intended to repeat it verbally to keep Taliyah in mind.
"I have marked the route for you, and you take the boat from Berguen to Locrond, and go all the way northwest, bypassing the Immortal Fortress, and not near Demacia, and finally passing through Fort Digvo, and arriving at Freljord. There's a lot of ice, a lot of rocks. Sparrows can also fly against the wind, so you should use your abilities to soar among the mountains. ”
He shoved the map into Taliyah's hand, and the desert wind blew it out.
Taliyah glanced at the map and saw that it was surprisingly well marked, explaining why Demacia hated magic and why Frostguard Fortress couldn't be approached, so as not to make her feel dangerously curious.
"With this map, it's a shame to get lost." Taliyah gripped the map to keep the wind from blowing it away, and the last of her fears of the unknown path were removed.
As if sensing her psyche, Karn's intimidation was immediately caught in the wind, but it was light and not scary at all.
"Beware of the Noxians, some of them with ulterior motives will covet your power, take you to the battlefield in exchange for military industry, and throw you into the sea if you don't obey."
"You can't scare me, I can swim." Taliyah laughed, like honey wine in the desert, with a beautiful aftertaste.
She looked at him steadily, then pulled a thin strand of silk from her clothes. She handed him the hand-spun wool. He had a surprised look on his face.
"It's our way of saying thank you." Taliyah said quietly. "Give others what you have, never forget."
Karn took it cautiously, then strapped it to his wrist, carefully considering his own words: "You have to walk the next road alone, you have to weave your own path." I will send you one more word, and your life is like weaving, and it should be a rock. ”
"Destiny is like weaving, and it should be a rock." Taliyah repeated it, then took it to heart.
She felt that this sentence was perfect for her.
"That was after I got on the boat, and I followed me before I got on the boat." Xavier interjected suddenly.
She stood with her chest crossed, listening to Karn's repeated admonitions, a little unable to understand how a fifteen-year-old could be so verbose.
"You're going to see Taliyah get on board safely." Karn immediately turned his gun.
"Got it, got it, long-winded." Xavier waved his hand, looking impatient.
"Sivir, you have to be careful of the Noxians, don't get stabbed in the back."
"Impossible." Although he didn't understand the meaning of Karn's words, Sivir thought to himself that his skin armor was hidden behind his back, and he couldn't stab it.
"Looks like I'm going to teach you a lesson before I leave."
As soon as she finished speaking, Sivir felt a stinging pain in her back, and the pain made her grit her teeth.
But the pain disappeared in the blink of an eye, and she held the back of her hand to block the sunlight, and looked up with a long sigh.
"It's time to go." Sivir was the first to climb the Skarash.
"Goodbye, little master." Taliyah waved goodbye to the map in the wind, and was carried by the collar by the silent Nasus to the cabin beside Scarlash.
"Goodbye, Taliyah." Karn waved goodbye, silently watching the three of them until they disappeared into the sand.
Taliyah was Karn's apprentice on a whim, but he was still responsible enough to teach her, and all that was left was to go out and be reviewed by society.
However, he was not very worried, Taliyah's abilities were obvious to all, and he believed that she would be able to complete her training and finally return from her studies.
After seeing off the three Sivirs, Karn returned to the town to lead the camels.
It was Karn's decision to go to the southern rainforest, and it was approved by both of them without objection.
But before leaving, Cassadine changed his mind.
"You two go, I won't go." Cassadine lit the tobacco and smoked it like the old men hiding from the sun under the covered bridge in the town.
"Uncle?"
"Father, what's wrong?"
Kahnkasha asked almost at the same time.
"I'm tired, I've been gone for half my life, and I don't want to go." Cassadine smoked his pipe, and the aromatic smoke steamed like mist. "I just want to go back to the village now, herd the sheep and be with your mother," he said. ”
"Father, have you really thought it through?" Kai'Sa grabbed him anxiously, not expecting the parting to come so suddenly.
"I've already decided, I don't want to drag you down." Looking at the steaming smoke, Cassadine's gaze blurred.
Relieved of the burden of revenge, Cassadine suddenly realizes that he is just a frustrated ordinary person. His shortcomings in battle have been revealed, and although he holds a divine weapon, he is unable to exert his true strength.
He was too old to learn magic, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to survive the severe pain when he lived with his skin armor, so he couldn't keep up with the two of them.
The battle is getting more and more dangerous, how can he, who can't wield a knife, pull down his face to delay Kaisha's growth?
Karn and Kai'Sa still had a long way to go, and he couldn't walk anymore. Recommended ReadingTV//
So, the decision he made was to quit at the right time.
"But we don't feel like you're a drag, I don't want to be separated from you yet, we'll protect you." Kai'Sa pleaded in a choked voice.
It's only been two years since the father and daughter reunited, and there are still many good memories that have not yet had time to be created......
In fact, Cassadine had already thought it through and did not let her choose before her father and partner.
But it was his initiative to back down that made her even more distressed.
"You're worse than Taliyah, you're younger than you, and you're not so sad when you're separated from your family." Cassadine tapped Kai'Sa on the head with his pipe and smiled kindly, "Don't let family affection become a bondage, your mother and I will bless you both." ”
He gestured with his gaze, allowing Karn to gently pull Kai'Sa off his shoulder.
"It's not that we won't see each other, you'll come back eventually. I'm sure Karn will take care of you, and if you have a child, bring it back to me. ”
"How can it be so fast!" Kai'Sa held back her tears, and her sadness was washed away.
The camel crowed in the sun, and Cassadine smiled like an old father and handed Kai'Sa to Karn.
"Have a safe journey."
