(MC POV)
We decided to make camp a distance away from the forest when the sun started to set.
Gale went to hunt for game while Brick and I were in charge of setting up camp.
We just had the fire started when Gale came back with strips of meat tied to his waist. I tried asking what those were and he said he managed to kill a boar that was roaming around the field.
Since we didn't need the whole boar, he simply cut a few pieces of its meat and left the rest for the scavengers.
I wanted to ask him why he didn't try drying the rest of the meat as rations but decided against it.
We sat around the fire and ate quietly, the only sounds coming from the crackling of our campfire.
I pulled out the small bone stuck in my mouth, placing it neatly on the plate beside the rest of the bones.
"So… I guess we'll be going our separate ways once we reach the town tomorrow, eh?" I commented, leaning back.
