Ruvenel eats with gusto even though he is hungry, tired, and sore. He senses the others feel the same. After some time, he begins to sing softly.
"Home is behind
The world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow
To the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall
Fade"
(Lord of the Rings)
Performance: 9. Ruvenel doesn't quite get the somber tone he was trying to achieve. It doesn't sound bad, just a bit too happy?
(OOC: I didn't realize I was going to play Ruvenel like a bard. I should've just made him a bard.)
OOC: Oh come on! That song always makes me cry!
Listening to Ruvenel sing, Vohana first noted how... bad it was. But then, as she paid more attention to the lyrics of the song, she began to realize the deep meaning behind the words. She began to question her motivations. Why exactly did she need to find the family that abandoned her, when she had a family that loved and cared for her? Why was she putting her brother's life at risk over this silly nonsense? She looked at Myth, catching him looking back at her. She quickly diverted her gaze to her spellbook, suddenly feeling very sad.
Guldrum will go over to Myth. "Ay, that sister of your's always looks kind of sad or angry does she know how to laugh?"He will chuckle and bump his shoulder into myth gently like pals.

"I have seen her laugh and smile before, but she has a lot upon her mind these days, especially since we started venturing out farther from Shadowdale..."
"You got any more of those berries? I got an idea." He will look up the tree at Myth with a big smile.

"What is it you want with berries? if it has anything to do with my sister you are more likely to find the business end of an arrow instead of dried fruit. That is if she does not set you alight first..."
(OOG: I replied but I guess something went wrong oops lol and oh they are dry that makes a difference...)
Guldrum still has a big smile on his face, now more of a nervous smile. "Arrow, fire, nothing I haven't felt before." He will give a deep laugh. "No matter berries aren't needed."
Guldrum will walk over to Vo and sit down next to her. "Got a moment to let your brain rest? I got a joke for you."
"What green and jumps from bed to bed?"
"A prostitoad!"
He starts laughing hoping that Vo will at least smile.

Vohana slowly looked at Guldrum, unsure of what she just heard. "Wha... Why... Why would you think that an appropriate thing to say to me?" She stood slowly. "Do you think me a prostitute?" Her expression slowly turned sour.
"N-No... It's just a j-joke I heard." He stammers out as his face red with embarrassment. "I'm just..uh..going to go now," He says as he walks away towards Hjolmond rubbing the back of his head.
"Mond, I don't get these guys... I told Vo the prostitoad joke and she thought I was calling her a prostitute. When are we going back home? At least some of the people enjoy my company there.

Vohana watched Guldrum walk away. She was confused by the entire thing. "What kind of joke is that," she mumbled to herself. These people were strange and she felt out of place. Sitting once again, she turned the only place she felt comfortable; her books.
New friendships are hard, the road is long and difficult, and every day may be fraught with danger or even death. Some came close to meeting Kelemvor this day but now nighttime falls, two of the party take their watch and as the night passes and runs into the next day the party sleeps and recovers from a day of travel and combat.
The next morning dew has coated everything making the forest around the party glisten like a thousand emeralds caught in the radiant light of the bright sun as it raises over the eastern horizon. Camp is packed up, mostly in silence, as each person eats their rations or leftover food from the day before, and once everything is packed the party carries on through the forest...
As the party continues to travel north through the forest, about an hour after breaking camp, the tree's grow thicker and the canopies begin to block out the early morning sun. A natural darkness falls, and in the area's around the party a slight chittering noise can be heard.
Myth sits in a nearby tree watching over the camp, and occasionally keeping an eye on Vohana as she studies.

(OOC - I'm assuming he's just talking about whatever dried fruit I had that I was feeding the bear cubs with)
