Jayati said it so casually, after my home was lost, that for a moment Dae couldn't think past that. What if it came to that? What if they lost their home? It had already happened to her ex's pod. Where would the Trench pod find haven?
No. They wouldn't lose their home. That was why she was here and she wouldn't let them down.
"Sparring?" Dae perked up. That was something familiar to her. "Yes, I'd like that. As for my residence, I was staying at the Inn, but now I've rented a house on the beach. It's much preferable having access to the ocean. I like to stay at full strength." And without very much land travel in the past few years, she could feel her strength seep from her as soon as she stepped onto dry land.
"The ocean is great for exercise as well. Do you swim?"
