Impassable Forest First day of week 3
Had to fight something different today and was not relieved. We camp close to the road because it was at some point decided that that would be safer than in the actual trees. Early this morning while everone was still doing their morning ritual a man was spied coming down the road. Unfortunately, he spied us as well.
He looked different than anyone I had seen before. His complexion was slightly darker than everyone's in the party. His hair was black and he carried a sword which was wrapped at the hilt in an unusual manner. He burst into our group almost before we were ready for him and just started wailing on us. This man took a blow from Ardel's ax, a slash from Ternell and Aaron's swords, and a jab from Korliss's dagger and was still standing. All those men were nearly knocked flat with his return. I was having a hard time connecting to his brain well enough to get my brain splitting spell off. Falon seemed to be having an equal amount of trouble. I'm not sure how we won. It must've been Chani's singing that helped us to our victory, because for a moment, it sure seemed he was going to take us all out.
When it was over and he was dead, we decided he must be a scout from an outpost. Tried to find it today, but no luck. Just want one good night's sleep with no fighting. Can't seem to concentrate much.
