Early the next morning, I woke up before any of the men.
I got down from the carriage and saw that they were all asleep.
When I walked up ahead towards the green forest we had found our way through, I saw the men who had been making watch by the trees.
It had not been on purpose, but they were asleep.
I couldn't find Xaden in sight.
Maybe he slept elsewhere.
I hurried through the forests and searched for mushrooms and spices.
Once I found them, I put them in the little bag Xaden had given me food in last night.
I was careful not to pick the dangerous mushrooms.
Back home in the pack, because Urma was a healer, she had shown me how to pick mushrooms and spices and differentiate them from the poisonous ones.
Also, I had been in the kitchen cooking, and I knew how to make meals.
I looked for other ingredients, like pepper and onions.
