CXXIV. The Sigh Of Relief

"This place has decided that I can't sleep at night. Maybe we should rest a little during the day and leave in the middle of the morning" Dag said, as his eyes closed in on his sleep.

"On orders, Captain. Sleeping from dawn until late in the morning, we will finally rest our tired bones" confirmed Reidar, who immediately agreed with Dag's idea.

The two of them rested again, while Karl, who was the only one who had managed to sleep soundly, continued to read the almanac, enriching his scientific knowledge.

After about 6 hours of sleep, Dag and Reidar awoke.

They had finally regained their strength, they felt their bodies regenerated.

Dag stretched out, watching the Sun's rays penetrate the dense branches of the trees.

"Finally... I slept like a newborn" he said, happy and rested.

After cooling off with a sip of water, the three adventurers departed north.
