Shamal's ego wasn't the only thing that took a beating from the bandit; he feel like he has been encased in the morning fog for some time. Almost automatically, he leapt off the cart with the others and stumbles after them.
After a short period, the fog lifts from his senses and he looks around, realizing that Merrick was not with them. Wait! We are one camel short of a caravan, friends.
It is then that he turns and sees Merrick approaching them from behind. Shamal's face lights up as he surveys the group of four.
It is the will al-Raml that we will bring great displeasure on those that would oppose us!
He pauses for a second in thought, and then continues.
And it is must be their blessing that there are four of us. When there are four elements together as one, fate will smile upon our good deeds!
