Rau felt bad for ignoring her. Really, he did, but his grip on her body tightened a little bit, and he continued forward, her pleas striking him like weak hammer blows: only effective in intent. Still, he carried her forward, the edge of the town drawing closer with each footfall. It was the quiet 'please' that made him stop for a moment, pausing to look down at her form and meet her gaze for a long moment before he stopped.
"There are many homes. I made a promise."
With that, he looked away, back toward the gates of town, and carried on, now moving a bit faster, as his tighter grip meant she was less likely to get jostled by his motions as he covered the ground between them and the town. It wasn't until he reached the little fence around the town that he slowed his approach, stopping just outside and thinking. The gate wasn't exactly a new thing, but it did pose a strangely effective obstacle for him. His best bet would simply be to go over it, but it looked flimsy, and might be damaged in that process. Certainly going around would force him to interact with guards of some type, right? So what else was he to do?
With a small grunt of dissatisfaction, the giant moved forward and gingerly placed a heavily calloused hand atop the top of the fence, then began to tug downward. The fence was electric, as these were wont to be, but the callouses dismissed that as the fence warped. Once it was low enough for him to do what he needed to do, he placed her on the ground on the other side of the fence, offering her a small smile before he turned and started to head back along his footprints, mussing them up as he went so that there was no trace he'd been there. He stopped a good distance away to watch things unfold as a group of men approached the disruption in the fence to find her. It seemed she'd just executed some kind of security breach, but she was so wounded, they were forced to treat her first.

The mind is a fantastic, dangerous place. Don't go alone.
