As they stopped for the night, Sorlas dismounted and lead Tėlpetal to the river, he drank his fill then wandered over to graze on the fresh grass not far from the river bank.
Sorlas unstrapped his bed roll and made his way back to the camp, two of the rangers were building a small camp fire, another two were preparing a simple stew.
"I volunteer to take first watch" he said as he throw down his roll next to the yet unlit fire.
Islist nodded and said "we shall watch in pairs two hours a piece"
Sorlas nodded back, then waited to see who his watch partner would be and who would be relieving them once their two hours passed.
