The two become more familiar with one another and the language of one another as they journey, pointing to and naming things with a deliberate attempt to improve communication.Game is plentiful, including fish, and water is at ready supply, following the river. Both have made part of this journey in the past, traveling with hunting parties from each respective village. With just the two of them, making less noise and displaying much less of a presence, more animals are seen than have ever been previously noticed.On the fourth day of the trip, the two notice a tall thin boy standing in the shallows of the river, holding a sharpened stick poised over his head, evidently hoping to spear a fish. The boy does not see the two, as he is intent on fishing. Momentarily three others ease into the water to join his efforts.Having never before seen people with such inky black skin, the young man and woman, stand by the edge of the river and watch them for a while, wondering whether or not they are friendly. Shortly one of the four happens to notice the two and all wondering stops. The other youth makes some awful slathering noise with his mouth, forsakes any idea of fishing, and charges at the two travelers, raising a bone-headed javelin with intent to launch.[ooc]Each character receives 5 DP.
