After the sudden dash to keep the door open in order preserve her chance of observation, and the momentary fear of losing her head to the Roegadyn’s ax, Miko leaned back against the lift’s frame and laughed as the large woman dropped to her hands and started looking for what Miko assumed was the same creature she herself had followed into the elevator. She had not even stopped to consider he might be someone’s pet. The Roegadyn began calling to the pig and Miko saw the faces of the other passengers tense with discomfort and she couldn’t help but laugh again. Could they not see the glory of this moment? A woman, easily a full foot taller than most, crawling on the floor like a child, looking for a creature that was rarely seen even in the wild! It was like a gift.
The lift operator was protesting the existence of the thing when the cause of the confusion trotted out from the tangle of legs he had been hiding in and hurried to his owner as if he had done nothing wrong. Miko knelt down to become level with the crawling woman’s head and grinned at them both.
“Well that was exciting, wasn’t it!â€
