Two hours later, the group had finally recovered their bearings and were once again ready to continue their journey.
Originally, Lux only wanted to let everyone rest for an hour. But, after seeing that there were no signs that the Monsters were targeting them, he decided to extend their rest by one more hour, so that everyone could fully recover.
No one talked to Lux during the journey because they didn't want to interrupt his concentration. They only followed behind him as he chose the best paths in the forest that would ensure their safety.
An hour before sunset, Lux decided that they should rest for the night and continue their journey the next day. He didn't know what kind of Monsters were on the prowl at night, so he planned to summon all of his Named Creatures, as well as Skeleton Soldiers, to guard the perimeter of their temporary campsite.
Grandma Annie had bought a tent with her because she didn't want her two disciples to freeze from the coldness of the night.
