Halt nods to thorn and says to Hal, "understand that both of them have experienced things that people their age shouldn't have. I won't go into details because that's their business. Rangers try to understand things they don't and are naturally curious. That's why they're rangers. Thorn, it's nice to meet you. Pardon my own curiosity, but what is your connection to the ship. These people," half says gesturing at Hal and the younger part of the crew, "are quite younger than both of us."
Zeross wakes up and realizes he has still not gained any information. He asks someone where he can find this King Duncan fellow and is directed. He runs the way there not realizing how far it was. When he finally got to where he was told the king was he couldn't find the King. But he did see Hal talking to an old Ranger. He silently walks up so as not to interrupt and stands behind Hal until there is a break in the conversation.
Thorn looks at him and responds gruffly. "A friend of his fathers while he was alive. I promised to keep him safe and so I shall." I then look at Halt coldly as Thorn walks away."Yes I understand that but when they deny other people of answers when they beg for them some of us do get irritated. " I see zeross. "Hey there Zeross come join us." I say calmly.
((Not to be confrontational, but I walked up completely silent. I have skills like a ranger, and I use them without realizing it just like rangers. That being said, you probably hyper-observant so, i'll roll with it. :D))
I walk up, still wearing my hood, and introduce myself to Halt.
"Hello sir, I'm Zeross Attanna. Good to meet you. Hello Hal. Has anybody seen this King fellow? I need to talk with him. Business."

Halt nods at thorn understanding in him. "Makes sense, Zeross was it? Halt," halt says putting a hand out to shake. "You can see the kingbin the mirning, he already retired to bed as i am about to. I'd have shaken you hand Hal but I've been had my hand crushed by skandians who were trying to shake my hand and I'm not going to risk it with you," halt says this to Hal jokingly. "If you want to, get some rest. There won't be another attack for a few days while Dijorn recuperates. I'll leave you to plan or sled or do whatever. Good night," halt shakes Zeross's hand then Walks to his tent next to Alena, will who had secretly followed Zeross but was not worried, and Crowley. Before he goes into his tent he peeks his head into Alena's and says, "you were right, they don't trust you at all really." I'm response she just smiles and turns over on her blanket.(Going to be gone for about 5-6 hours at the latest. Narrarate characters if you want.)
"Oh well, in that case I guess i'll retire as well, good night Hal, unless there's anything you'd like to converse about?" I say raising an eyebrow intuitively.
((Sorry about that, I'm just bone dead tired.))
I shake my head. " No it's fine." As Halt walks away I yell,"Nice job hiding your Hibernian side." I laugh and walk back to the line pacing waiting for an attack. Lydia walks up and pecks me on the cheek. I smile and kiss her back.
"We'll, guess ill go to sleep then" I say to no-one in particular. I go and find a nice spot on the ground and lie down before I promptly fall as sleep. ((Well that's it for me tonight. G'night all!))

Halt awakes remembering the comment Hal made when he was walking away. "That's not me anymore," he whispers to himself before he steps out of his tent to see Alena, will, gilan, and Crowley sitting around a fire with coffee brewing and Horace walking towards them.
"Will!" Horace exclaims rushing foward to slap will on the back. When he does will looses his balance and falls over, everyone laughs at the sight of him sprawled on the ground. "Crowley, halt, Alena," he says nodding to each in turn.
"Horace, just once could you not make me fall over when you greet me?" Will says sitting back with his legs bent and arms thrown over them casually.
"Where's the fun in that will treaty?"
"What do you think of the skandians, they're not like erak and Svengal at all." Alena says staring into the fire. "The Gallic guy Zeross isn't as bad I don't think, but I don't trust him much more."
"Is it because they don't trust you Alena?" Gilan says nugding me with a joking smile on his face.
"Partly," I admit, "the. Again it's always wise not to trust me." The rangers and Horace all smile at this and laugh a bit.
"It's true, now pass me some coffee with honey," halt says sitting down. Will leans foward and makes six cups of coffee, dolling out large quantities of honey in each. Everyone takes theirs in hands and sips it appreciatively.
"They said you asked too many questions and did t answer enough," halt says cradling his coffee.
"Hmm," I say standing then sitting back down to enjoy the coffee, "I'll wait to see what they want from me. They all had hands in weapons when I was near on the ship."
"And a good thing too, if you lost your temper than they would have seen your rage. I've seen it and I think that it can be worse than eraks," Will says laughing joking.
"Thanks will," I say giving a sarcastic smile back.
I stand there at the line with giant bags under my eyes. The rest of my crew fell asleep already. I see dawn approaching. I let out a yawn. I see the ranger camp over there with them all awake. I see a fire pit. I start to walk over to it and grab my pack. I take out some kindling and find some tinder. I place it all there and grab two stones to make a spark. I light the tinder on fire and start to boil a pot of water. I take some coffee out of my pack and make a small cup. I realize I have nothing to sweeten it so I just drink it straight. I walk over to the line and sit there with the cup of coffee to stay awake.

I stand and grab another cup of coffee putting honey in it. I walk to where I see Hal siting, sit next to him, hold out the cup of coffee and say, "want to try some coffee from Toscano? It's supposed to be the best place to get it since they Invented it. Here it's fresh."
I glance over at her and look at the coffee. "Yes please." I say calmly. I take a drink out of my black coffee and realize its empty now. I put down my mug and grab the cup of coffee. I start to drink it and shudder at the warmth. I continue watching over the field in silence.

I sip my own coffee and watch the fields. Then decide that I need more honey and coffee. "If you want you can join us," I say standing to go back to the ranger and Horace camp.
I look over at their camp in longing. I look over at the field and then back at their camp. I see people starting to wake up over here so I realize it is fine if I leave. I stand up and walk over to their camp and sit down in silence. I look at everyone around the fire and took a sip of the coffee.

"Horace, gilan, this is Hal. The skirl for the skandians ship that came to help is. He's the one that designed the new sail that halt was segueing with a svengal about," at this everybody laughs.
"Horace," Horace says extending a hand.
"Gilan," Gil says from across the fire nodding at him. "Nice to meet you."
I reach for the coffee pot and see it empty, "here was half a lot here before I went to get Hal, did you lot suck it down that fast?"
Crowley smiles and says, "that would be thanks to gilan, will, and halt."
"Ugh," I say leaning back, "you know, rangers are rarely caught. The best way to catch a ranger I believe is putting a pot of hot coffee out."
"Yes, I would happil be caught if it means coffee," will says smiling and cradling his cup. I shake my head and smile as well.
I nod to Gilan and shake Horace's hand. "Nice to meet you." I say calmly. I look at the coffee and see it's empty. I then hear Will's comment. "Will, you would rather have coffee and be caught or even killed before having no coffee?" I ask incredulously.

"It depends on what kind," will says with a big grin, "and who would be doing the capturing."
Horace slaps a big hand on wills back and makes him stumble again. He then just stays down and sits next to halt. "We really love coffee," I explain to Hal. I look to where the skandians were camping and remember the two identical people on board his ship. "Hal, you said that the two identical people on the ship were twins. How can you tell which is which?" I ask.
I chuckle when Horace asks that question. "Wulf has the 'wope' on his wrist." I say calmly with a smirk. "So I presume that Halt, Will, and Horace were part of the rescue group for Erak, Am I correct?" I ask calmly.
I wake up from where I had fallen asleep on the ground and gloomily remember how much fun it is sleeping on the ground. I look around and see a campfire with people around it. It looks like the Rangers, but I can't be sure because my eyes are still bleary from sleep. I figure there's only one way to find out so I get up and walk over to the campfire. It appears my assessment was correct.
"Good morning to everybody!" I say cheerily, there are a few people I don't recognize in this group, two looked like Rangers but one was a giant of a man who looked like a knight.
I smile. "Hello Zeross. How did you sleep?" I ask while I take another sip of my coffee. "Crowley, Horace, and Gilan, this is Zeross, Zeross, Gilan, Crowley, Horace." I say calmly.
