Keep on the Borderlands
Falco replies to Leozaren, "While I do have a sling, I am no forester, Elf-friend."
Once a suitable spot is decided upon, the middle-aged spearman starts to dig a small hole for a campfire, using his spear to break up the ground and then clearing the soil out of the spot with his right foot. After digging a suitably-size hole, he searches up some stones to help contain a fire and puts-up a small parameter of rocks around it. He spends a few minutes looking about for some kindling and sticks to burn, gathering them up as he comes across them, and the places the material in the hole.
He holds off starting the fire while he waits for the others to return. In the mean time, he sits down on a piece of fallen tree, breaks out some bread and cheese from his kit and breaks bread. "Tell me, Elf-friend, whereabouts do you hail? I have not seen your kind before. Have you travelled far to come to these borderlands?"
