Day 1:
The chemical base from the spice having wore off hours ago Del traveled north out to the deserts edge.
"Well floating lady... any chance you can magically materialize a tent? .... No? Thought not... Well I love the stars anyway."
That morning Del practiced his art and meditated on the existence of nothing. Shadows and Darkness the tools of the ninja.
"To be seen is to be useless... the wind unseen is a powerful force."
He was finally aware on a deeper level the art of nothingness to strike from the shadows. Yet it was the internalization of become the wind unseen that brought forth the enlightenment.
As he packed up and begun his travels for the day he happened to catch a glimpse of a dear.
Silently he made way towards the beast keeps unseen and silent. Then he noticed it... the dear was full distracted in the midst of feeding.
"as the wind..."
His strikes were true and precise. The dears blood flowed and its breath stops nearly instantly.
Del gathered some alchemical components from the fallen beast and prepared portions of meat to be used as rations for his trip.
"So floating lady... this is more your style eh? I can dig it..."

Day 2:
Still bent on reaching the promised land in the north to become a true ninja master Del continued on through the plains just outside the desert. He kept a keen eye for any tracks that could lead to more game.
"I'm not saying I don't believe in floating ladies in the desert but you have to admit that if you present certified credentials you would get a hell of a lot more followers..."
Just as he comes around some tall grass he catches a glimpse of three deer.
"But I will admit your timing it rather precise..."
Running into action Del vanishes almost on instinct to avoid detection... he does grin after realizing he is well on his way to becoming a true ninja master.
"HIIIYA!"
With a quick slice of his blade the first deer falls. Yet the loud shout was more than enough to alarm the 2 other deer who promptly fled the scene.
"Hrmmm 1 out of 3? Need some work on that... Maybe less vocal... nah..."
Collecting some more meat and hoofs Del packs in for the night Meat again... and more glue supplies... His plan to cross the waters of the mainland and the north might actually be coming together.

Day 3:
"Walking sucks... I hate walking... Did you know that Floating lady? Its degrading... a ninja walking... in plain sight no less. And before you say it... No it isn't due to my short legs... I keep pace with any human! I'm even faster than a dwarf I'll have you know!"
It is at this point Del realized he had been talking to the floating lady for hours now. The distance traveled thus far was still but a stroll compared to the distance that lay ahead... He had his plan but needed to work on more details. He figured that if he made way for Valencia first it would allow for quicker travel via their roads. Also a pit stop for a talking partner might not be a bad idea... Floating ladies after all did not take kindly to being talked at constantly...
"Well perhaps I should give your ears a rest Floating lady."
He makes it a whole 5 minutes before he starts it up again with humming and then the questions.
"I know you have to have a name... If you would have told me then I could make up fun songs about how floaty you are and... Songs? Ugh maybe a haiku at best... Sorry Floating Lady I don't do songs..."

Day 4:
"Nothing much to report... I have failed to fight some sort of Dire winter fox that could smell me and breath frost... need to make some soap..."
Del doesn't so much as show signs of being crazy but is for sure showing his lack of comfort in the outdoors. Urban ninja is a term he could live by.
"I want a friend..."
By the end of the day he enters Valencia and purchases a Donkey named Hal.
"My trusty stead... You shall be called Hal. I need you to carry all my stuffs! We are heading north to the lands of the floating lady."
The donkey stands there munching on hay with a blank expression on his face.
Just before Del leaves he posts a note on the job bored.
