Once the sun had rose and his flask was empty,Gale stood,glancing back at the scene before turning and walking back.He arrived roughly a hour after he left,tossing his cloak on his cot in his tent,going out and seeing Lyssa. "Oh come on I was having a actually good day." He mutters sarcastically,walking over to her. "Were you though?" Lyssa teased,punching her brother lightly. "Im dead serious today was actually a good day." He snapped back,chuckling lightly. "Whatever,did you catch anything?" She asks,him responding with; "No,did'nt hunt.Caught a duck yesterday so if its still there then eat that." After a small conversation they parted,Gale eventually finding Kayla. "What are you doing?" He asks lightly,leaning against a tree. |

"Just sitting here." She said, standing up and tossing the piece of grass to the side |

"You should try talking to some of them.They won't bite,you know.I feel like you and my sister would get along well,you both have the same vibe to be honest.We'll be here for awhile before we start moving again," He says,leaning off the tree before turning to leave. "I'll find you somewhere,then im going back to my normal life." Gale said over his shoulder,going to his tent and grabbing the knives,sharpening them. |

Kayla watched him walk away. I'll fine you somewhere, then i'm going back to my normal life. That stung. Kayla didn't want to be something that was just a burden, then tossed away. She walked over to his tent. "Why did you help me?" She asked quietly |
| |
|
| |
|
Gale set the knife down. "I did'nt help you.I simply took you because I knew you'd be wanted by a long shot and I was going to get money and send you off but no,turns out your a fucking princess and now I'm better dead then alive." He spat,walking out of the tent. |

Kayla sighed. "Sorry to burst that fantasy." She muttered, going back to the woods and sitting down where she had been |
| |

"Valkyre,are we going hunting or what?" Gale aked,the tone still lingering. "Yeah,we can go now." He responded,Gale nodding and darting back to the tent,grabbing his bow.They went off,splitting after Gale found tracks.A bull elk walked out,horns growing in again.Gale drew the arrow,muscles tensing as he waited for the moment.The bull looked at him,Gale freezing before delivering the lethal shot.He slung his bow over his back,seeing how far he was from the camp.He sighed,grabbing the bulls stubby horns and starting to drag it back to camp slowly,yet efficient. "Fatass elk." Gale muttered,dragging it over to the kitchens and dropping it with a grunt.He wiped the sweat off his forehead,looking up at the sun and seeing it was noon. |

Kayla's mind wandered back to Gale's earlier words. I'm going back to my normal life. She wanted to get to know him better, but she wasn't sure he felt the same since he'd spoke to her like that. She sighed, tipping her head to rest against the tree and closed her eyes. |

Gale barged into his fathers tent,seeing his absence.He sighed,walking over to Hugh to ask. "Where's my father?" He asks,a leak of concern in his voice. "He went out last night.Have'nt seen him since." Hugh responded gruffly. "What direction?Where was his goal?" Gale asked,getting hot-headed. "He went southbound to Iekburgg.Apparently going to try to get some things.Said he'd be back about right now." Gale shook his head as he listened,the whip echoing in his mind. "Thanks." Was all he muttered as he walked back to his tent,throwing on his cloak and clasping it tightly around him with his head down,hood up.He walked to the weaponry,grabbing the case before going back to his tent,unclasping it and swinging the detailed bow over his back,the quivver as well.Gale sighed,swalloeing some of the rage as he lowered his hood,eyes sharper then ever,earring glimmering.He walked over to Kayla,leaning against a tree after he approcahed silently. "Im going to Iekburgg.Was wondering if you needed anything." He asks,a pissed tone slipping out. |

Kayla jumped up, surprised. "No, i'm....fine." She said, crossing her arms |
