57 57. Night watch

"Well, who would have thought we'd meet budding hero's" Rob laughed at his luck. He had met many different people from bandits to nobles while traveling. However, this was the first person who had a title he had ever met. This just went to show how valuable it was to take the time to speak to someone was.

Soon the fire began to die down, Gil and Su had volunteered to set up the tents they had with Remey cleaning up some of their gear from today's travels. Walker offered to take the first watch for the night as he wanted to show his thanks to the travelers for the stew.

Walker took up a spot a bit farther from the fire so he could see around the bend in the road in case anyone came down it. Surprising him midnight came and sat back to back with him. "You know you can go sleep, I know you like the fire." Walker didn't want to force midnight to stay up after traveling all day but with a snort and a shake of her head, she refused.
