Ma'tanza laughed. "Yeah, though it wouldn't be as much of a pain as Bheja." She joked. If nothing else, she was glad for the distraction, so she did her best to keep up the conversation as they continued along.

After another hour, the clan finally stopped to make camp for the night. By this point, the area they were traversing was covered in sandy dunes, punctuated by a few scattered rocky outcroppings. They picked one of the more rocky areas to set up the camp, in order to take advantage of the more solid ground they provided. Tents were set up quickly, particularly by those who wanted to get out of the sun. Although, it would not be long before it set over the horizon. 

Peiter was particularly enthusiastic about sitting down under his and Sabine's tent once they finally set it up. He laid down on top of his bedroll, cringing as his skin pressed against the leather. "Ahhh, well, better than walking at least. Maybe you should set up all your alchemy equipment in the tent, or right at the entrance, if you want to keep out of the sun. But first...you think I could get some healing?" He asked Sabine. 

Elsewhere in camp, Kaleeth was surprisingly quick to grab the practice swords and seek out Fendros. As soon as the tent was set up for Janius, she had grabbed the weapons and headed off to meet up with him. Ahnasha, Leaps, and Rhazii were all in their tent, resting and drinking the rest of the water rationed to them for the day. Kaleeth had elected not to drink until after her sparring match. "You ready, Fendros?" She asked.
