Now that I had a strange throwing axe that, for reasons unknown, would return to me no matter what, Alna was the happiest person in the entire inn.

“Think about it!” she said. “That battle-ax of yours is no good on horseback. But with this new throwing axe you can hold the reins and still fight! You can even use it from the driver’s seat of a wagon!”

Alna was smiling from ear to ear, and as soon as we got back to our room she took out her leatherworking tools—which she must have packed before we left—and some thread and got to work making a sheath.

“Wow, you brought your tools with you too?” I remarked. “You brought a whole lot, huh?”

I was brushing the baars in the bathroom when I made my comment. Alna was sitting cross-legged on the sofa in the main room.

“Of course I did,” she replied. “How else are we going to mend our clothing or shoes while we’re on holiday? But if I’m being honest, I wanted to bring everything; the yurt and all of our things, I mean. We onikin don’t have a concept of ‘holidays’ in our culture, so when we go somewhere, it’s only natural that we bring everything with us; our yurts, our livestock, our tools, and everything considered valuable.”

She continued, “When you’ve got too much in the way of valuables and you can’t walk with it all, you make it into smaller jewels, or gold and silver threading, or otherwise you wear it in the form of hair accessories, necklaces, bracelets, and clothing. Do that, and the moving part of nomadic life gets much easier. If your enemies appear suddenly, it’s that much easier to take all you have and run.”

“There aren’t many homes like that anymore, but...in the past, when the onikin were a wealthier people, everybody had some clothing woven with gold or silver thread. Everybody had jewelry to wear.”

“That uh...that sure does simplify things.”

“For us, that’s just how things are done. The whole reason we can leave our things in Iluk is because we trust Maya and Uncle Ben. But if I’m being honest, I can’t help feeling antsy and agitated about it all the same.”

“I see...” I responded. “But look, if anything happens, Sahhi and his wives will be here to tell us as soon as they can. Ben’s got his short sword, and with the cavekin around to back him up, there’s no need to worry. While we’re out here on vacation, try not to worry about that stuff too much. You’ll have more fun if you ease up.”

We chatted like that until I finished brushing the baars. Alna also completed the sheath for my hand axe, and the twins did some studying with Aymer. After a while some of the inn staff arrived with tubs and soap and hot water and whatnot, and we each took our baths in turn. The inn staff had even brought us pajamas, so we put them on and hopped into bed.
