Splitting up.

Before Ark could even say anything, Ephine spoke up. 

"Maybe we should split up, to increase our efficiency a little." 

Hearing Ephine's suggestion, Ark was a little hesitant. Even though he knew that they were all strong, he didn't want to leave them. If they split up, he wouldn't be able to protect them if something unexpected happened. If the commotion was big enough, he would probably notice, but what if it was too late at that point? Even though he was worried for them, he respected her opinion, and he knew that it was most definitely the smartest move if they wanted to increase their strength rapidly. 

"I guess that's probably for the better, but if we're going to split up, then someone definitely has to go with Atar, in case he runs into something unexpected, or humans for that matter, a kid can't just run around in a dungeon alone, especially not since he doesn't know how to interact with others." 

"I'll go with him, he won't leave my sight!"
