CXV. The Arid Soil
"Damn!" snorted Karl, frightened at the mere thought of spending longer in the forest than necessary.
"It seems to be a good plan, Captain. Also, we could write down what we'll find in the unexplored part of the forest, so we can update the maps, which will forever carry our name!" replied Reidar, who moved to the side, to make Dag through.
"Reidar, besides being a surefire archer also seems to be very clever. So far, his advice and observations have always been helpful" Dag thought, reflecting on Reidar's words since they left the Temple Of Orn.
"I had to keep my mouth shut..." whispered Karl from the back.
"You're wrong, brother. I think you had a brilliant idea. If your plan works, I promise I'll tell everyone about your skills as a chemist!" replied Dag, trying to encourage his friend, who closed the almanac and snorted, surrendering to the idea of having to follow his Captain's orders.
