"And work well spent it was," Hana chuckled, elbowing him playfully.
"Indeed." Kiba smiled and dipped his head to the bard again. "Thank you very much for the song, Master Thrax. It was quite invigorating."
They were nearing the gate, and he slowed slightly as they drew closer. "I...suppose I should bid you both farewell."
Hana cleared her throat. "Um, yeah. It—well it was...really good to meet you, Kiba." She held a hand out to him, offering with a small smile, "I'll...try to keep in touch?"
He took her hand with his own slight smile. "I think my mother would like that. And...I would too. Thank you."
