Karin reached her little cave that was only seperated by a curtain. Omce in said she collased on the futon inside and exusted from the day event she fell asleep instantly.

Luna waked through the forest. Her long black curly hairkept getting snagged on loose twigs and branchs. With a swift movement she drew her sword and wack a tree leaving a dee mark in the bark. This is how she kept track of where she went by marking the trees. She re-sheathed her sword and walked on. Hearing voices up ahead she climbed into a tree to spy

(The voices are raen and terrick)

Lily looked down and started muttering to herself.

Amber glanced to Lily, then shrugged and started packing the jerky up, getting ready to leave in the morning.

Merek stood nearby, sword in one hand, torch in the other, and ready to act should it prove necessary.  He watched Linden carefully as the man hauled himself up the rope and over the edge of the Pit, as if he expected the man to try to either attack or flee as soon as he was back on his feet. 

Algar waited patiently until the caravan guard stood.  "Here," he said, holding Mavis slightly toward Linden, "take him."    The new leader assumed that if the guard had his hands full with the child, he was less likely to cause trouble.

Linden hastily wiped his hands off on his pants so that they were reasonably clean and dry and took Mavis back gently from Algar. His clothes were muddy and dirty like Mavis's, but they had had a chance to dry out on the walk back and the worst of the mud had dried and flaked off already. He cradled the boy against his chest again like he had in the pit to try and keep Mavis warm and looked towards Merek holding the torch. "Lead the way."

Merek led them back to the main branch in the tunnel as Algar brought up the rear. "This way," Merek said as he turned right. The tunnel branched again quickly. Noise and ruckus of the bandits indulging in the mead could be heard from the right, but Merek led them left, then made several more turns in the confusing maze of tunnels before coming into a slightly bigger cavern with a high ceiling.

Several torches were already burning on the wall and Rook was there, busy building a fire in a ring of stones. A small cot with a blanket had been set up near the fire pit. Along the wall, multiple sets of shackles were secured to the stone, telling that this was certainly not the first time this location had been used to hold someone against their will.

"Here's the royal prisoner now," Rook said sarcastically.

Ignoring the comment, Algar looked at Linden and picked up one of the ankle shackles that was just long enough to reach the cot. "Here's how this is going to work. You're going to tend to the kid and you're going to wear this. Whatever you need, Rook here will get it for you if he can."

"The cave is under an enormous oak tree. A large boulder partially conceals an opening big enough for a tall man to enter. A crude stairwell has been built to ease the descent down into the cave system. A narrow tunnel slopes slightly downhill about 30 feet before it branches." She held her arms wide "This wide at the smallest part, the rest of it is wider." She said and dropped her arms back to her side. She looked at the wagons as they reached them, then to the other humans.

Terrick listened carefully to her words and nodded, thinking about this information. "And who knows how deep it goes or where they're keeping Mavis and Linden." This was not going to be easy.

The guards that had stayed behind at the caravan came out to meet Terrick and others, having watched them approach. Terrick made a quick introduction. "This is Raven and she brings news that Mavis and Linden still live, but are being held by the bandits." Then he added quickly, before any of the merchants had a chance to suggest that they leave them to their fate. "And I intend to get them back."

"You've got to be kidding me," Linden looked at Algar incredulously. "You don't think that if I was going to have a sudden change of heart and attack someone, I would have already? I'm not a bloody animal you know!" For a moment he towered dangerously over the shorter bandit, having the advantage of size, but froze when he heard a tiny cough escape from Mavis. Forgetting about Algar and the shackles, he shuffled Mavis in his arms so that he could see the boy's face better, and realized that he was slowly coming back to consciousness. His eyelids fluttered, but did not open, and he stirred every so slightly in Linden's arms.

"...And i intend to get them back..." Luna heard one man say to what appeaed to be a group. Smiling she jumped down from the branch and landed infront of them. "Bring who back?" She asked then noticing that most were armed her hand drifted down to the hilt of her sword that hung on a belt at her waist.

Lily looked up from her muttering. "Where are you going?" She asked.

 

[StarrNico]

Lily looked up from her muttering. "Where are you going?" She asked.

"In the morning I am leaving this camp." Amber told her. She tilted her head slightly "You got any family you want to be reunited with? If so we can go to them."

Raven tightened her grip on her bow, watching Luna warily. She glanced to Terrick, it would be up to him to trust this newcomer with information or not.
