While standing on top of a sand dune, Arun was staring into his telescope, and looking straight to the place where he hunted down the corpse of the porcupine beast. Now that place was filled with those little creatures and it was almost like a war zone there, everyone wanted to have a piece of the meat.
He felt bad, he could have carved out more meat for himself. But he was injured, and didnt want to deal with acid burns anymore.
Arun then started focusing on the thing for which he came up the dune. His strategy was pretty simple, as the night would come, he would go to the highest point he could find to see whether he could spot any campfires. As he could not spot any signs of people here, he figured that this was the only way that he would be able to spot something.
For the last three days, he couldnt find anything. But today was the day when Lady Luck finally shined her grace on him. He spotted a campfire light, around 4 kilometers to his north.
