Once they were out of sight, Niyol stopped and called the soul of the scorpion forth once more. The smokey blue creature appeared before them. Almyra gave it a friendly smile as Niyol climbed on its back and mentioned how it would get them to their destination faster. She nodded and took it, pulling herself up atop the spirit creature's back. Sitting now, she gently patted on its carapace and softly muttered "Thank you, friend." She looked at Niyol again with a smile "Alright, ready to go."
What would have likely been another three day journey could probably be cut down to less than one on this creature, assuming that spirits didn't tire from physical exertion. Still, night would probably fall by the time they made it to the village Almyra's sister lived in, especially if they got off and walked the last few miles as to not be seen riding a giant ghost of a scorpion.
