Page 8 The sun is now high in the sky. Jon is
still snoring. The fire crackles softly, sending embers into the air. Shadows that once threw ominous swathes, now retreat from the trees as the sunlight beams and bounces off of the dying snow in glares. Vladimir and Tarn both have a seat on a large gray rock, Tarn rubbing his leg.
Vladimir pulls out a length of sinew and begins working a snare trap.
Skillfully wrapping the end of the braided twine around a bendy length of greenwood and fashioning a slipknot with the remainder.
Both
Tarn and Ianna slip into various depth of daydream, the crackling fire providing the backdrop for thought. A smile appears at the corner of his mouth as Tarn relives his near-death experience.
<6+2(cunning)=8> "Hmm, maybe i could have lit it on fire!" ... "Naw, that wouldn't work.." "hmm, maybe if we dug a pit.. with BIG SPIKES!" .. "Naw, that wouldn't work" "maybe if we dropped a big rock on his head?" .. "Naw, it was in a cave." You eventually come to the conclusion that bear hunting is just hella' dangerous.
Ianna is contemplating something much darker.. there is no smile upon her lips.
Bodulf <?>moves to help Rame clean up.. Rame leans over the assorted mess of several clay mugs, a few meadhorns and a mound of fish bones. While casting a quick glance at Jon, Rame replies in a hushed tone. "
Didn't Ianna tell you? Damn, I told her to tell all of you.. Jon tried to KILL my father, on the night of the Spring Celebration." He continues in between cleaning mugs with fresh snow,
"He hired Helik sneakthieves, and Bjorn killed the damn Helik with Ianna's bow!" The news stuns you.. You glance up at Ianna, a look of concern on her face now obvious, suddenly you realize why she hasn't been overly talkative as of late. Ianna notices the conversation, Bodulf and Ianna lock worried eyes.

Vladimir
happy, rested, enjoying the company of friends in your familiar surroundings for a change
Tarn
feeling good, leg is still stiff, it hurts (you know how it goes.. the day after is always the worst) Big bruising can be seen, scab is good and hardened.. it is healing, but it smarts. You don't really wanna try to run.. you may be able to in a pinch.. but.. it would, for sure, open the wound again.
