Eoln ordered the words "go!" Narleah did not need a second tell. She headed away from the other group members. Thinking that she was the first one out, she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the other Dwarf. "It's him!" She groaned "And it appears that he has chosen the straight path, well I will certainly not follow suit." Narleah ran further ahead and without pause, veered left. To Narleah's astonishment she ran out of steam quite quickly. Huffing and puffing she slowed herself to a walk. The scenery was quite beautiful she thought and flat, she chuckled as she just couldn't believe how flat the area was. Living in the Misty Mountains and being surrounded by....well mountains, Narleah was not at all used to the vast expanse of the vastness that was all around her.

Narleah plodded on for some miles when she came across a rocky outcrop. Feeling her belly telling her it was time for a feed, she wondered if there were to be something hiding in the rocks that would be easy enough to catch and eat. She had been picking her way up, down and across the loose stones when her next step startled a fairly large rat. "Ah ha, ya lil bugger!" She exclaimed with a wide grin and was about to give chase when suddenly the rocks that were about six feet above her came tumbling down. Narleah lost her footing and fell with a thud. She sat there peering at her now trapped legs and looking around, wondered if anyone had seen this gruff dwarf's predicament....no one....not a soul to be found. "Aye, well what to do now."

The hairy she-dwarf sat there for some time querying her situation. She pondered and pondered and pondered some more. "Hmmm I wonder if I were to just move this leg." So she did "And if I were to move this leg" She did this as well. Once again Narleah found herself tumbling down over the now long settled rocks that had fallen way earlier and came to, yet another thud...this time at the bottom of the outcrop. She stood up abruptly and dusted herself off, "Ahem...well right then."

By this time the sky had drawn its curtains and darkness was setting in. Narleah found another rocky outcrop, amazingly for such a flat land, and set camp. A flicker of light was seen not to far from where she was. The dwarf wondered if someone else had chosen the same path. "Maybe I will offer some idle chit chat whilst we await day break."
