After feasting on the delicacies prepared by Koula, everyone except Alamir and Little Isha, who were responsible for the first night watch, quickly drifted into slumber. Even the Succubus Paladin leaned against her shield and longsword, entering a state of dozing in front of the campfire.
It was indeed an extraordinarily long day. The group had set out from Melanthan at dawn and rode continuously for eight hours, rushing to the frontline of the battle between good and evil. After a brief rest of two hours in Pascaler, they set off again, crossing the Hoffenstan River before trekking another thirty miles in the darkness of night, ending the day with a rather fierce battle.
Fortunately, they had ample time to rest. There were still several hours before dawn, and they would not set off again until the next night fell.
