Alan, who had been flying high up lowered to the ground and spoke to Matis. 'Okay, I think we've crossed the border. Should we make camp?'

"Sounds good to me." he said, as Alan stepped off his mount. Both went into the woods. "I'll hunt and you'll get the wood for a fire. Unless you have any complaints, of course." Either Alan hadn't heard him, or simply had nothing to say. A minute passed, both being silent. "I'm off, then."
There were no rabbits to hunt for, no small animals either. Had Matis ran out of look? He had almost always found some food every time he set foot on a forest. About to give up, he heard movement in the bushes. Knowing that he shouldn't make any sound, he slowly turned around, and saw the nose of a pig coming out of one of the bushes. This should be easy, he thought, and started moving towards the target.

Zeiss sat down on the floor near Alan's mount and started meditating, he had not had a chance to relax in a while. Nabata was too hot for proper meditation and the group had been to big back then.

OoC: Seeing as Ralph didn't post, and Marzius/Draco isn't back yet, I believe I should try and get this moving.
BiC: Matis slowly reached out to one of his Steel Lances as he crouched towards the bushes. The pig's face came out of the- Wait. What? Matis backflipped upon being charged by a pair of tusks.
"Stupid boar had to scare me to death..." he muttered under his breath, as he walked towards the aggressive animal. The boar charged once again, trying to tackle Matis down with it's tusks. Jumping over it, Matis stabbed downwards, impaling the boar, maintaining perfect balance as well. His skill with lances surely had increased over the past few weeks in the desert.
"This should suffice for the moment. It's really a huge boar." he said to himself, and started heading back to the camp.

Alan had chopped what he thought was suffice firewood when he was suddenly nearly ridden down by a mad pig! 'Wonder what made him bolt like that.' Alan mumbered but he put it out of his mind. He returned to the camp.

Ralph was sitting down on a stump waiting for Matis to return as Alan tried to start a fire. he found a rock nearby and started sharpening his old slim sword.

'Yeah, don't bother helping us.' Alan said as he made pathetic attemps to spark a fire. Where's a Sacean when you actually need one? 'We will be fine, thanks for offering.'

"Sorry, just tell me what to do." said Ralph.

'if you can get the fire start that would be great.' Alan said.

Matis was just back to the camp, and dropped the dead boar on the ground. Ralph and Alan were trying to make a fire, while Zeiss seemed to be in a trance-like state.
"Hit a rock against a weapon to get some sparks flying. Or perhaps clash two weapons." he suggested and sat down, as he started cutting the boar in pieces. The place was a mess. Thankfully, he had cut the boar up a handful meters away from the camp. Blood was all over the place.

Alan finally managed to get the fire going and sat down to get some rest. 'Hey you, Zeiss, since you seem to have taken your nap tme already you can take the first watch.'

Lyndsey had been keeping quiet letting the others work. Matis and Alan obviously knew how to handle themselves in the outdoors. She kept a weary eye on Zeiss. The mysterious shaman may prove to be her greatest ally, or her biggest threat.
She simply ignored Alan's comment about watch. She knew that known of her companions would possibly trust her to watch over them. Her attention focused on Alan, perhaps her greatest hurdle in accomplishing her mission, unless he could become her ally... Maybe later...

'You should get some rest, Lyndsey.' Zeiss said noticing her eyes open.

Lyndsey nodded and closed her eyes. Her weariness caught up with her, and she drifted off to sleep sooner than she expected. Her plans and schemes would have to wait for another day.

Eventually, everyone drifted off into sleep. Everyone, except two. Yes, two. Zeiss had the first guard, and he distrusted him as much as he distrusted Lyndsey. Zeiss was not stupid, though. He probably knew that Matis was faking sleep. He was not that tired, anyway. He preferred these rocky plateaus to the desert. Of course, anyone would too.
He could only hope nothing went wrong. But he had learned long ago never to keep his hopes too high up...
