Only two wolves left. Fink drew another dagger from its sheath. Even though Brand was still on the ground he proved to be an excellent dodger. And besides, although Fink was used to working alone he heard that you're supposed to help your accomplices. He aimed and threw his second dagger at the wolf nearest to Jin.

Brand finally got a moment to compose himself after having to dodge two vicious wolf attacks. One of the wolves was still up in his face, though, so the danger hasn't passed. He quickly pulled himself up to one knee and swung his mace, aiming for the beast's head.

Felicia, however, was not so determined to join the fray. Being a priestess, she was never really trained for combat and the chaotic storm of violence overwhelmed her completely. She raised a shaking hand to her lips, looking in horror as both man and beast fought and bled around her.

With his leg aching from the scratch, Coren went towards the onconsious wolf to finish it off with a stab to it's neck. ((attack roll 16 ))

Adelflæd waved his staff in the direction of Felicia for her to grab onto.
"Help me up here, would you?"

Brand's powerful strike connected, killing the wolf on the spot, but it wasn't fast enough to stop the animal from sinking its teeth into the fighter's left arm first.

Jin felt the weight of a wolf hitting his back and sending him to the ground, but as he spun around to avoid a second attack he found his adversary lying on the ground with a knife sticking from its neck.

Adelflæd's staff seemed to snap Felicia out of her morbid trance somewhat. The priestess grabbed it with numb fingers and helped the blind girl up. She raised her head just in time to see Coren slice the throat of the last remaining wolf right in front of her eyes.

- And that's that. - Coren said whilst wiping his blade with a handful of grass before sheathing it. he took a closer look at the wolves mow that they were all dead.the beasts were pretty mangy looking, and sickly too, with their ribs being clearly visible and their pelts being all patchy and thin.
- Look at them. skin and bones basically. this pack hasn't ate in weeks from what it looks like. - Coren rubbed his left forearm. it sored a bit from the bite, but aside from teeth marks left on the sleeve of his gambeson the arm was fine. the scratch on his leg however, was slightly bleeding. nothing too serious but Coren wished it woild cease already

Fink, the only person who came out unharmed both physically and mentally, walked around the field retrieving his throwing knives. He whistled cheerfully.

"Job well done, eh? I mean, we're alive, they're not and we got a nice workout in!" He sat down on a nearby rock to properly clean his knives with a piece of cloth, "And if that wasn't enough, I would say that this was a great teamwork building exercise... if I knew what the bloody hell it meant, anyway."

Jin clapped Fink on the shoulder.

"We got the workout, you just did target practice. Not that I would have it any other way."

"And good job there Coren, glad you are more than a performer."

That's a dangerous one, he thought. Better tread carefully.

"Are you ok Felicia?"

Still in the middle of shock,  Felicia accommodated Jin’s inquiry. She glimpsed at the monk and nodded, thanking him for his concern, although her mind was focused on her wounded friend. Hastily, the priestess placed down her knapsack and searched for the medicines and bandages inside. She handed Adelfaed a few and asked her to tend the bard’s wound. For a moment she was stunned. It came to her mind Adelfàæd’s physical defect but she immediately remembered superb ability when they visited her home.

Without further delay, she approached Brand, her eyes brimming with anxiety, “Are you okay?”

“This is just a small scratch. I won’t lose anything,” Brand answered in a strong, solid tone. Disgust and regret apparent on his face.  

He sat down on the ground looking away from the priestess. Felicia immediately followed him. The priestess knelt down and began tending his wounds. She looked at her troubled friend, thinking of words to speak that might lighten his mood. Sadly, to her, she cannot make any words to say. What Brand feels right now would be the same as hers if she would be in his shoes.  

After a few moments of deep thoughts, the fighter looked at the others and said, “The road had become more dangerous. We should move now. It is still midday.”

@All

The sun began to set. Its dimming rubescent flare shone upon the weary adventurers. Felicia squint her eyes when its blinding glare reached them. She held her hand up and protected them, involuntarily turning her head to the right. When her vision came back, she found herself staring at a small thicket by the river.  It was filled with green bushes of assortment. Clear water evidently flows besides it. The nearby trees added shade and cooled the place. But the beauty revealed by nature in front of her did not amazed her this time. Anxiety took over her and flooded her mind.

Brand scanned the area, from the river to the plains. A lump of rock caught his eyes. He distanced from the group and moved closer to it. As he was nearing the rocks, a hollow was revealed just a few meters by the river. It was surrounded by a number of small trees. A bit of grass covered the top but most of it were rocks. The fighter walked closer again. This time a bit cautious, trying to avoid attention to any hostile lurking near. He noticed that the soil was a bit dry. Dusts can be seen drifting in the air as it blew. No signs of recent activities, like footmarks or ashes were visible. Only a dry and dusty skull of a wolf was present sitting at the corner.

He walked back to the group and said, “There’s a hollow over there, do you think it will be a good spot for us to spend the night?”

"Well that looks ominous but we can leave the worrying for when we are frantically awoken to defend ourselves from who knows what. I don't think we can find a decently defensive area around here and stumbling in the dark would be dangerous. A nice campfire, rest and changing a guard every hour or two then? Except Felicia, I think she'd had enough for one day. For now, nature calls but I'll be a whistle away."

There was a brief eye contact with Hoodwink to let him know he wanted to have a word. Jin was also thinking that he'd like to have a talk with Adel before the night is over. He was intrigued by the curious girl that showed no fear and looked more mature than her years. Also why she was traveling with this lot in dangerous circumstances.

“Heh,” Brand exhaled, approaching the monk with a smile, “You really know how to do things. Do you think  putting up a tent would pose danger to us? The priestess needed it somehow.”

“And I agree with you,” he added as he walked a bit farther from Jin to the hollow, unloading his things, “we should have a changing of guard.”

He looked at Jin from behind then to the blind girl, “But I’m not sure how she would do it.”

Brand began unpacking their things. Felicia followed him and helped.

"Welp, looks like our fearless leaders are making all the arrangements already, might as well go take a whiz myself. Also, prove my true physical superiority to our resident martial artist."

Fink smirked and followed Jin to the side.

"I'd better give you some space then." Jin said giving him a light pounch on the shoulder. A little further they reached a clearing.

"Well, that was an exciting first day. But Hoodwink, is she really the right person to invest it? Her heart is in the right place but she will get us killed before she realizes her potential. And Brand is clearly unstable - worse yet he doesn't realize how his careless actions affect her. It's kind of funny how a blind girl that is like 10 years younger is more than capable at putting him in his place. They are a bad mix, there is no way it will end well.
Anyway you have probably sensed it but this is a poor place to rest. Do you have any tripwires? And are you planning to off Coren? Your stares are sharp enough to put holes in him."

Jin wasn't sure if that last part was a joke or not.

A dark bird circled above a clearing the nearby woods and the two men below could hear a telltale cackle as they were watering the plants. Surely the bird wasn't laughing at them. That would be absurd for a bird to understand such things. It decended towards the river and a small rock formation on its bank. With a few rapid strikes of its wings it settled near a robed figure. With rhytmic hops it approched the figure and gurgled happily, extending its neck. A delicate hand stroked the feathers under it's neck and pet it on the head. It tilted and jolted its head, grabbing onto the edge of the sleeve. Then it pecked at the slice of dry meat that was presented for it. Hanging onto it it jumped and flapped its wing to settle a little further away.

"Oh please don't tempt me, mate. I almost offed before we even left the town. But, I guess he did somethin' right today, so maybe he'll be more useful alive. Still don't trust him, though."

Fink finished his business and pulled up his pants.

"Our leading pair aren't what I expected at all. And I didn't have big expectations to begin with. I say, we need to get more info out o' them. Just in case they don't make it to the end. As for tripwires, I'm not a trapper. If I want to kill someone, I do it myself. Now come on, let's head back before they botch something else."

"I'm relieved to hear that, I am against killing or permanent harm. Say, that bird isn't laughing at your manhood, is it? I'll catch up with you a little later, I feel like taking a stroll."

That laughter sounded familiar, was the bird flapping around or was it heading somewhere? Jin decided to walk towards the direction it flew off out of curiosity. He couldn't help but ask himself what he was even doing but that had never stopped him before. The sky had begun to darken when a familiar robed figure came into his vision.

"Didn't think I'd meet you here, wanted some space to reflect?"

"One should at least be able to have their dinner in peace.", she answered while chewing on a slice of meat. She carved a translucent thin slice out of the dry lump she had and offered it to him.
"Now that you have sought me out, you may entertain me. Make it worth breaking the tranquility for."
