When PA'AVU emerges from the sandstorm, covered in blood and wounds, the shocked faces of her companions tell her how little they expected her to survive the bladelings' assault. With a brief but grim smile, the goliath walks up to their now re-bound captive and hefts him up onto her shoulder. After a quick but assessing look at her gravely wounded gosb'tar, she gestures with a nod of her head and leads the group forward, Hazard - almost beside himself with joy - dancing around her. Bita-Bousseh gets wearily to her feet and gently lifts Chanvati's arm around her shoulders, her arm around his waist, and follows.
Finally, the battle-worn comrades are able to take a short rest in a cavern, well-hidden both from sight and wind. Pa'avu listens with a slight smile to Chanvati's accolades describing her bravery and sacrifice, her fingers idly sifting through the sand she sits upon, seeming to gain strength from its touch upon her skin.
After some time has past and all are somewhat refreshed, the goliath rises to her feet once more. "We have far to go if we are to make our rendezvous," she states in her deep, gruff tones, before throwing their tiefling up onto her shoulder once more, ignoring his protests, and continuing eastward.
When they reach Red Rock at dawn, N'Gauthak and Or'lia are waiting for them, surrounded by their clan, and Pa'avu can smell the delicious odors of a home-cooked breakfast.
