Khelek opened an eye when he felt warmth on his back. Clouds partly obscurred the sun, and the smell of rain soon to come hung dense in the air, but the sun cast a few of her rays to the ground. Rudhchamion was watching the sunrise after a dutiful night. The pile of snakeskin was stretched over the ground near him, and the fire was burning low. The wolf pup arose, careful not to stir Taralphiel, and sat down next to Rudhchamion.
"We should find some cover after the human wakes up," Khelek said, inhaling deeply the cool air.
"I was thinking about that. The woods may provide some cover from the weather, but our provisions are quite low," Rudhchamion answered, scanning the surroundings. "And it will be difficult to hunt in such weather." The Elf and wolf pup continued their watch.
