The journey back to Magnolia took another few days, but seeing as she had taken this journey just the day before, she was able to shave a little time off the trip, seeing a shortcut along the way. All in all, the walk was rather uneventful, which allowed Tori to reflect on things. She somewhat regretted arriving at the guild, grabbing a flyer, and leaving without a word to anyone. Even if she couldn't contain her excitement, she should have at least met someone so she would have a friend to return to.
She thought of her grandfather and how proud he would be of her. She actually made it into a guild. And one of the most well known guilds in all of Fiore at that. Her parents were probably still mad at her for leaving, but likely understanding. Her father once told her that everyone had their own path to walk in life and more often than not, it wasn't what one planned out. But alas, here she was on her way home from her first job.
As hunger found her, she stopped long enough to get a granola bar out of her bag. Peanut butter chocolate wasn't really her favorite, but it was the only kind they had in stock, so she figured she could make dup for a couple of days. She stopped for a few minutes to eat it, wondering what she would do when she got back to the guild. She could always just grab another flyer and leave again, but she had yet to make a single friend in the guild and it was almost a week since she joined. Deciding that wouldn't do, she set back out on the road and jogged the rest of the way back in excitement of her next adventure.
