Smashed World, Part II

[Dalamar]

As the party converses, the day starts setting to an evening. It seems they didn't get really far today but, on the other hand, they learned much.
It isn't really dark yet and the party can keep going for a few hours without running the risk of the horses misstepping in the dark. The landscape is still the same boring one that it was yesterday.

"We should press on for a few hours, then get some rest later."

"Aye"

Lorcan pushes Ceinwein forwards gently, upping the pace slightly. He studies the surrounding countryside, looking for a good campsite.

After a few hours, when the light begins to fade, Zon has fallen asleep on his horse. His horse, realizing this, walks by a nearby tree and attemps to knock the dwarf off.

Zon wakes up as the tree hits him and he falls to the ground, but recovers gracefully. He looks around at the area.

"Here is a good place to rest."

The horse walks over to the tree and waits for Zon to unsaddle, and feed the mount.

The tree that Zon 'found' is part of a group of around dozen trees scattered on both sides of the path. The smallest trees are withered but still alive, apparently because the larger trees are using all the nutrition from the ground.
The larger trees are still quite alive and one even has a few small apples in it.
The river leading to the central lake is around a mile away at this point, altho it would seem to near the path further along.

There are signs of recent camping on the spot and Lorcan determines them to be at most little over day old.

Lorcan walks over to the apple tree, glad to see the sight of fresh fruit.

"This looks a pleasant place to camp, and from the ashes I guess we're not the only one to have thought that."

He walks back to Ceinwein, and removes his tent from her saddlebag.

Durban dismounts as well. "It's good to be afoot again. I think the fresh fruit is a good sign that we should camp here."

*BUMP*ity, there's really nothing for me to post. Everybody going to sleep?

*BUMP*ity, there's really nothing for me to post. Everybody going to sleep?

I think that's the plan, although we'll have one person on guard at all times. Lorcan will take the first watch.
