[center] [color=00aeef][h3] Gaius Secondus [/h3][/color] [/center] As soon as Gaius returned to the camp, the first thing he did is find Hugh. When he found him, he saluted him, military style, subordinate to superior. "Sir, I apologize for my earlier behavior. I will act better in the future." [center] [h3] >Lilith Merdox< [/h3] [/center] Gaius departed and Lilith lingered by the stream for a little longer. She looked around and realized she was stalling. [i]Why is that?[/i] She wondered. [i]Oh, I know, this spot reminds me of home in the summer. There was a spot similar to this one that I often went to.[/i] She shook her head to clear her thoughts. [i]Look at me, acting like a homesick schoolgirl.[/i] She squinted at the sun to judge the time. [i]I had best be getting back, we will need to attack soon. Hey, that gives me an idea...[/i] She slowly made her way back to the camp. She heard Syrena, Nickolas, and Habeen talking as she made her way to her tent, but she didn't stop to listen. She entered and quickly, but carefully, checked all her equipment, making sure her swords were sharp, and clear of rust. Also she cleaned off the dirt and grime that had accumulated on her armor during the march. Once everything was ready, she went out side, found a shady spot and waited for the order to form up. She popped a piece of candy in her mouth while she waited. [i]These are so good, but I'm running low. Maybe I'll be able to buy more once we run off these bandits.[/i]
