Everyone is sore and tired and it is not until the early hours between dusk and dawn that a safe enough campsite is found and made. Although everyone could happily fall asleep straight away an effort is made to set out the camp properly and start a small fire. Then watches are volunteered and the dubious comfort of bedrolls on hard ground welcomed. Although all the company are experienced travellers, used to early starts, most of you sleep late, Arathorn continuing the watch and only Valandil rising early to make his morning devotions. As the sun begins its march over the sky you alll eventually arise, in varying states of pain [the two Dunedain have taken the most damage (proportionately) but everyone else is on about half hits]. A camp breakfast is cheerlessly downed as conversation turns to plans for coming day.</blockquote>
