Everyone but Tuk beads down. Those with the means snuggle up tight with whatever source of warmth they have against the creeping cold.
After roughly 2 hours the last, most restless party members (namely Grok, Roderic, and Jacobee) drop deep enough into sleep that they stop tossing and turning. There are no animal noises at all, and Tuk begins to understand the literal meaning of the phrase "The silence is deafening". With no other noise to simulate his ears, Tuk starts to hear the sound of his own blood pumping - a kind of low throbbing roar that seems to keep getting louder to his deprived sense of hearing. This goes on for what seems like a very long time when the faintest little noise, akin to a twig snapping, occurs just outside what Tuk knows to be the circumference of the pitch black campsight.

Also, I just noticed I asked for John's spot instead of Rosalia's. Amaury, if you would please.
 

"Something approaching..." Tuk says, almost to himself, as he gets up, coiling his chain on his forearm. "Scrag, Jhon, Rosalia, wake up, we have company." he kicks not so softly at his three companions as he spoke the last sentence. "I can't see anything, but I heard something walking outside the camp's ratio" he explains once they are up.
 

john tries to be as quiet as possible as he wakens. He then casts lo light vision as quiet as he can without spoiling the spell.
 



There is a tiny coughing or choking noise coming from just outside the camp in Thrindar's direction. It is a wet, distressing sound. Rosalia thinks she sees movement that way, but has no clear view. It's more like something she caught in the periphery of her vision and now is not visible when looking straight at it.
