[QUOTE="Destan, post: 1305315, member: 12157"] What Dru said. :) It [i]is[/i] confusing, though, and it's a perfect example of something that made sense when I wrote it (to me), but now appears...well, confusing. The bottom line is that Baden and his buddies walked back to the campsite the three younger dwarves had been using. They didn't light a fire, for fear of nearby enemies. Katon marched off to stand watch. Wilan shows up, the group lights the fire, and settles into discussion. Katon then returns and is surprised to find Wilan sitting with his comrades. Baden pointedly lets Katon know he "blew it" while standing watch, since he should have heralded Wilan's arrival. Wilan, being the polite guy he is, felt embarassed - not for himself, but for Katon. The half-elf realizes that he's good enough to remain unseen, and his unannounced arrival is more a result of his own woodland skill than Katon's lack of vigiliance. Clear as mud? D [/QUOTE]
