Stephanie pays close attention as they walk, splitting her gaze between the ground beneath her feet and the various little bottles held in Eskel's massive hands as he explains what each one contains and what it does to him. Honestly, she'd feel better if she had a notebook so she could keep notes on this all, but her memory is basically eidetic, so she doesn't need it. Still, she takes his explanations seriously, asking questions about ingredients as they go, and apart from wrinkling her nose a few times at some of the more gory bits, keeps any and all opinions about it to herself.
They keep walking through the day, stopping occasionally to let Scorpion rest and to nibble on some jerky, and by the time dusk starts to gently pull across the sky, Eskel indicates the town coming into sight ahead.
"I'll be fine," she tells him, hiking a smirk in the corner of her mouth. "I've got one here to protect me, don't I?" Yes, she's noticed the medallion around his neck.
