He rationally knew it was due to the mission they all had in the morning, but had hoped the music would put his mind at ease as it had always done in the past.~In the past, you never fought against a Mayor who sought a war and a water creature who looked like something out of a child's tale...~Entering his room, he was not surprised that Moss had already beaten him to slumber and did his best to move quietly around the resting saurial. As he moved around the room, Ayden knew he owed Moss his life for taking on the guard earlier in the day, and hoped he would someday have the chance to repay Moss for something he doubted the young brave was aware he had even done.As soon as his head hit the pillows, Ayden felt himself drifting into sleep and heard a new melody forming in his mind and smiled as he allowed himself to become one with Finder's music throughout the night.DawnAs always, Ayden felt the dawn approaching even before the first hints of it could be seen. Feeling refreshed and alert, Ayden stood up and carefully got dressed in the darkness, wincing every time his mesh shirt made a noise as he donned it for the journey into the swamp.~I may be slow at times uncle, but I will not be as naive as I was yesterday. Just because we mean them no harm, might not hold true for them...~Placing everything he felt he would need for the trip into the swamp in the bag beside him, Ayden hoped the others would not mind him using it for his personal needs as well. While the others seemed to carry their loads with ease, Ayden's back felt sore from the constant strain he had been putting on it.~I know Uncle...the road will make a man of me, but must it try to do so all at once?~His packing done, Ayden left as quietly as he could, even though hefelt certain Moss was only feigning sleep as to not hurt his feelings about moving around so much at so early an hour. Exiting the inn, Ayden left the bag with the innkeeper should any wish to place or take anything from it and headed to the church to pray. While he knew that he could commune with Finder anywhere, something about the peaceful presence of the church called to Ayden this morning, and it was from a padded pew in the back that he began his prayers.~We leave for the swamps once more today Uncle...~</blockquote>
