Rengo slept uneasy that night; waking up several times during the night with cold sweat.
Linora on the other hand got a long and good sleep after she had sharpened her tomahawk by the campfire.
Cornea was lying on his back on his bedroll next to Retina. It was a beautiful full moon tonight and it brought Cornea back to the early stages of the civil war during which he had met and fallen in love with his wife. There had been a battle with the Gerudo people right here on this boarder on a night not unlike this one. That was the first time he ever saw her in action and they managed to fend the Gerudo off together that night. Afterwards they had started talking and grew closer every day. But that was a long time ago now. As these thought went through Cornea's head he slowly drifted off into a nice sleep.

Retina lay close to Cornea, thinking about her marriage, and what her Daughter was up to. it had been a long time since she left, and she missed her little girl.
Tasul and Lon both sat in meditation, until the stalwart dwarves fell into a deep rest

Tasul was the next to awake, Joining his brother in training "Morning, Brother" "Bomatan, Fratel. shall we?" "just don't kill the grass this time" "you know how Spirit Magic works. energy transference... Never tried it on sand though" Tasul bends down and grabs a handful of sand, he lets it pour out of his hand. the silicon turning to ash as it moves from hand to hand. as it falls Tasul tries to form an orb of spirit magic, only for it to Fizzle out "Diminishing results. noted" Tasul says as he grabs a purple petal from his pouch. it decays in his hands, forming a perfectly fine orb "why you smoke this flower of Pure Mana I will never know" "it helps with my decision choices. maybe you should try some" Tasul grabs his Axe and gets in stance " after you" Rasul grabs his hammer and gets in stance " theres nothing more than I'd like to do" "than take the floor and dance with you" Tasul and Rasul spar as the Sun rises over the Horizon, which Wakes Lon, who grabs his Sword, sitting on the side, knowing full well he'll spar the victor

Ari woke up still groggy. She'd been utterly exausted the night before. For the most part, she was used to nighttime shifts, and so hadn't gotten the best sleep before leaving for an all-day trek. She'd completely passed out the moment her head hit the sleeping pad. It was a deep, dreamless sleep best saved for the dead. It wasn't refreshing. It was just there. When the morning light slammed her in the face, Ari made no reaction. So too when other people had begun to wake up. Even the clashing of swords so early in the morning hadn't nudged the girl from her slumber. It wasn't until it was almost time to leave that someone had finally given up and attempted to awaken the sleeping guard, much to her sheepish chagrin. Ari quickly cleaned up her sleeping area, but remained stale still from the day before.

Linora woke up around the same time as Lon and started separating the training duel in silence. When their training was done she woke her son up.
Rengo had slept very uneasy the whole night so when his mother woke him up he wasn't too keen to get up.
"Five more minutes..." he said drowsily.
"No you get up now, Ren," his mother responded firmly. "Almost everyone else is already up."
So zombie Rengo got up and got dressed.
Cornea had woken up from the sounds of the duel, refreshed and ready to keep going. After the Kazad brothers were done training Cornea approached Tasul when he was by himself.
"We need to talk," he started simply. "In private."

Tasul looked solemnly at Cornea "In Private? Like Private Private?" Tasul says making a gesture with his hand. Flat palm shot outward with the index finger bent down. As if he was saying stop. Lon took the gesture as a sign " Come On Ras. Lets get packed. Let the old War Horses chew the cudd"

Cornea waits until he's alone with Tasul and no one can overhear their words.
"I presume you too are aware of what truly caused this epidemic, Tasul," Cornea says with a serious tone while he looks sharply into Tasul's eyes. "It seems the shadows from our past refuse to leave us alone even now, so many years later."

Tasul hangs his head in shame "Indeed, we all have our reasons we joined the banner. this is a bit too far for my taste. there'll be many hardships on our end, Cor. all we can do is hope the others are not called in. I didn't expect the Meteor. Those poor Gerudo are not the same as they once was. you see one. you hear one. Torch it to ash" Taz says looking over Cor's shoulder at Retina "No matter the person"

A mild hint of desperation shows in Cornea's face. "Do you not think I know that?" he says with a low and sorrowful voice. "The only reason I truly decided to join this mission was to attempt to atone for the sins of my past. I never wanted anything like this to happen. Beyond the valley up ahead is hell on earth, and they are sending a mere group of nine straight into it, not even knowing what they are dealing with. You and I are the only ones here who truly know. I would like to inform the rest of the party of what is waiting for us, but my stupid pride is on the line if I do...

Tasul looks at him with contempt "we cant do that... Look. we burn them to ash, right? then we destroy the Rock. we make sure no one crosses into the Mainland, and we stop the infection from spreading. then we get our group and we kill Twinrova, honor regained. sound good?"

"Burning an unknown number of undead to ash, destroying a magical space rock, and killing Twinrova while at the same time protecting our party members sounds like it is an awful lot easier said than done," Cornea adds. "Besides, none of us have heard anything from the wicked witches in five years. Who knows what kind of dark magic they have boiled up in that time?" Cornea looks defeated. "Yet still, of course I will stand beside you and the others as we take this on. One way or another we shall prevail."

Tasul looks down in shame "That we shall. I mean we both know my brother if anyone could assist in this" Tasul walks away after brohugging Cornea "shadow be with you" Tasul returns to His brothers " So... big day. lets get packed and ship it out"

The sleepy Rengo gets excited to continue with the quest so he tries to muster up the energy to show his excitement but his sleepiness is still clearly there.
"Yeah let's get going everyone. It's time to put an end to this plague," he says with a tired voice and lazy gestures.

Rasul looks at his son, just now waking up when he should have been up an hour ago training "Not until you do your Morning Exercises, Private. now get appropriate and do it"
