Erfalas and his group, the following morning.

As the morning arrived, they were cold and hungry, but Erfalas insisted on going right away, not wanting losing more time.

Erfalas packed the company's belongings in a hurry, afterwards carrying the two wrapped up backpacks. He gave one of them to Imthôlion, who nodded as Erfalas passed him, going first.

Erfalas and the others started walking; him being totally determined on finding the others: "We'll try to get down from these mountains, but all the same look for signs that might imply that the others, belonging to this company, have been here," Erfalas said, now looking at the others, who nodded eagerly as if accepting this. Erfalas noticed the others being more up for it now. He gave a grin before they continued.

They followed a path, which went steadily downwards, winding from side to side. Erfalas had great trouble going down, especially were it was sloping and difficult to know where to put one's steps. He didn't complain though, since the atmosphere already had lightened up several cuts above. The fog was getting thinner and thinner, and this also helped for the group member's to give a smile now and then. However, every time Erfalas's ankle hurt though, he tried to smile as well and not think about the pain.

"Look!" An echo from Dunaire's voice yelled in the mountains. He ducked, growing red, realising how loud he had said it. Imthôlion stared at him, giving him a small hush. "What is it?" Erfalas asked, springing towards the male elf careless of the voice's volume. The man pointed at the ground: "You see that? It looks like one of our fellow Elves hasn't been very light-footed while walking."

On the ground one pace a way, there was a faint trace and another few paces from where the group stood, where another. Erfalas broke into laughter. "This means that at least one of our fellow companions is alive!" he announced happily. The other grinned, everyone feeling a small hope in finding the others alive too. The group followed the traces, seeing them lead exactly where this group was heading; down the mountain.
