He turns heel and walks away, and it doesn't take him long to come up with a spear. He debates taking something else and using it when the time strikes him, but ultimately decides against it--though he notices it would be relatively easy to do so unseen or unheard.

"Ain't rightly sure," he starts as they begin walking, "why folks stray too far from the village. You think they did?" It's casual conversation despite the odd subject matter: Boyd wants to get to know who he's traveling with, and idle banter is as good as any. He'll pipe down if they find tracks.
