Part 21 - Beyond the Forest

"Now we can actually sleep, tonight," she states, waxing enthusiastically. "Not doze, waiting for our time at watch!" Looking into the cart, Eilieen smiles at Erista. "And tomorrow morning, I shall mend your garments...I have not forgotten! And each day, I will do the same for another's, until the path wends its way back to you."
Oh, comfort, that she has time and a peaceful setting to even think about such things. The priestess pitches with setting up the tents, well-pleased with their current circumstances.
