"Y-yes, of course..." Mipha sounds about as placated as Link looks, nodding with haste and offering nothing more than an apologetic smile to Link. Anything she could say would only pile onto the already awkward tension, she knows.
Out of the back of the wagon she goes, making sure to close the curtain modestly behind her. She takes a few steps away from the wagon as a start for their privacy, and uses the moment to process where they've stopped and how everyone's milling about. She recognizes Dueling Peaks; the swamp to the east effectively serving as a Guardian graveyard; and beyond that, Fort Hateno. Her sweeping gaze ends on the road to Kakariko to the north, with the knowledge that just beyond their quiet village destination is the path to Zora's Domain...and the family who will be overjoyed to have her back.
In her reverie, Mipha somehow misses the sight of Daruk enthusiastically waving her over until he actually calls out. The other Champions and Princess Zelda have congregated near where several of the Sheikah are preparing food. She slowly pads over, giving a warm smile and greeting to everyone milling about, whether Kakariko villagers or stable hands, along the way. The smell of dinner grows stronger as she gets closer, and she identifies the smell as some sort of rice stir-fry combined with generous hunks of meat that will no doubt make Link's mouth water.
Her smile becomes brighter as she reaches the Champions - Urbosa with her arm still around Zelda, Daruk towering above the group, and even Revali standing off to the side, though his wings crossed and posture aloof. "So? How is the little guy?" asks Daruk, worry overshadowed by a jovial tone once he's noticed that Mipha looks happy.
"He's doing well... We checked for further injuries underneath his armor, and were delighted to find nothing more serious." She looks Zelda's way during the latter explanation, keeping her informed as promised. "The healer is...helping to prepare him so he can eat, as well."
