"Well, I think it depends on how valuable our find is. I think your plan is a good one. Buying some new equipment would help us get even more treasures. Still, if we find something [i]really[/i] valuable, then, well, I'll have to think about it a bit more." Swims responded, smiling lightly at Veria. There was something about looking at her he enjoyed, something that seemed...nice. This was always what made him feel like there could be something more between them, but, just like always, it made him afraid. He was Argonian, and she was Human. He wasn't supposed to find her beautiful...was he? He quickly tried to shake off the thoughts and stood to his feet after he finished his meal. "Well, at any rate, we should probably get moving." He said as he started to pack up his things. After a few minutes, they were all packed and ready to go. 

Over the course of the next few days, the pair made progress, but not as much as they would have liked. They continually fell short of their expectations for how far they would make it in a day, and Swims worried that it was all his fault. While walking in his armor, he just could not keep up with Veria. He was constantly tired, and even though me made a little more progress each day than the last, it was still not enough. They tried spacing out their food as much as possible, but they were still at least two days short of Blankenmarsh by the time they were out of food. 

The sun had not yet set, but the pair had already set up camp and got a fire going. Swims body was aching, and he was hungry. Going through his bag, however, all he could find was an apple. A single apple. There was not one other edible thing left between them. Swims sat down beside his bag and groaned. "Well, this is all we have left, and there are still at least two more days to go before we get to Blankenmarsh. We are going to have to hunt for something, we have no real other choice." Swims commented.
