Riju

"Josha, bring the lantern closer." Riju calls from the dark, the sound of chains scraping against the spongy ground of the Depths. Josha patters over, the golden light bobbing closer until it illuminates where you and Riju were tying down the hot-air balloon. "There! Thank you." "Do you guys have it secured?" "Almost."
You grope around for the chain in the dim light, before finally securing it. "Phew. Okay, where were we?" Riju pulls out a map, looking around. "Well, it's still pretty dark, but the Lightroot should be near here-- and then we can go to the mine and get the heck out of here."
Josha was securing her lantern to her belt, and she scoffs. "Don't have to tell me twice."
