Traveling lightly as he did, it was only a matter of moments before the old Kir monk was ready to be on his way.

It was satisfying that the leadership crisis had been passed, at least for the moment. If the goal of this quest was as significant as Lord Pelspin had suggested, the challenges that awaited them in Wootmerry were not mere trifles. He was pleased at the paladin's role in this.

As they began to move off, Puli's attention turned again to the follower. He sought him out, but there was no sign of his presence. Yet surely the individual was reporting back to his tribe?

The group continued to move through the rough terrain without incident. As indicated, the monk and the wemic took turns rotating back to see if they were being followed, but other than a random bird or lizard there was little else anywhere near them.

As the sky began to grow dimmer, Puli spoke up to Benton. "We should find out tonight the final assessment of our unknown visitor from earlier today. A low or sheltered place for the fire - and one that is defensible, of course - would be advisable. How do you wish to guard our encampment?"
