The talks went surprisingly well, though it was worrying when Crispy clearly didn't show any signs of really trusting or working with. At least he didn't know they were... ~And she told him. Okay, they could still keep a safe distan- And now Ash walked out and closed the distance, sitting near Orchid and speaking up while doing what he knew was her level best at not appearing exhausted and weak. He was caught off guard enough by Ash's move that it took him a moment to shake his head clear and start moving himself to stand by Ash, in order to help her not look exhausted and be able to help her if a fight arose.

However, as he crawled forth, the talks reached a rapid and questionable end. With the goblins all setting up camp at one end of the clearing, and the monsters at the other. While it wasn't clear if the goblins, namely Crispy, were or could be allies, it seemed they at least wouldn't try attacking them. For now.

With rest now becoming a priority, they each found as safe a place as they could to sleep. Since Ash was too weak to climb, her best chance was to hide under the roots of a tree. So with a little work on Reoth's part, he did what he could to use sticks, branches, and leaves off the ground to work as a sort of camouflaged shelter, with a focus of covering the purple markings on Ash's back. Once he felt she was hidden well enough, he took his albino hide to a different, nearby set of roots.

While he might've preferred resting with company, his mostly white body would be much harder to hide. So for his spot, he did what he could, the same that was done for Ash, with the added effort of scraping up the ground and covering himself with dirt. Only once he was mostly covered in earth did he get to relax and rest, hoping to not be found by something in his sleep.

Thankfully, he managed to get his full rest without anything disturbing him. And when the sun's rays reached him he awoke from the warm feeling on what part of him were left exposed. He did feel a little chilled, as everything seemed a bit damp, but despite that he stood and shook himself free of his makeshift camouflage... and the piled on dirt. With some stretching he looked about himself, watching as other monsters awoke and began to move about and seeing a trio start heading into the woods.

If the alerts of hunger and thirst didn't let him know, his growling stomach would have told him that he needed to eat, and drink. So with the assumption that the trio were heading off to hunt as well as explore Reoth crawled the very short distance to Ash's spot, beginning to move some of the sticks away as he spoke to wake her up, [color=lightcyan]"Ash, you doing okay now? There's some others that are heading out, do you want to go with them?"[/color]
