Vesper didn't have to be told twice. Within seconds she was up and off, looking for Finny. She found him at the edge of camp, staring off into the woods. She walked over, placing a hand on his arm careful not to spook him. He turned his attention to her, waiting for her to speak.<br/><br/>"Finny, I need to talk to you, I think...I think Briarwoods planning something. He's watching the patrols,"she said giving him a concerned look. Finny nodded, and let out a sigh."I don't trust him, either Vesper. Don't worry about him watching. He wont find an opening. I increased the guard for tonight, and tomorrow we're riding until we reach the city," Finny reached around to dig through his pack,"But as a just encase, hide this in your pack,he knows I have it on my person, so if something were to happen, it wont be found on me,"he handed her the package, and watched her hide it among her things. " Satisfied, he turned back to look out into the woods."Tell the others to be ready, though. I don't want anyone getting hurt if we can help it." Vesper nodded, and headed back towards camp.<br/><br/>She noticed Brynn and Merlin were no longer rushing about when she entered the camp again. They were done with the walk around then. Vesper walked over to them, motioning as she did for Ragnar to join them. A frown painted its self on her face at how pale Merlin looked, and she went into mother hen mode, placing her hand on his forehead.<span style="font-style: italic">He doesn't feel warm.</span>The mage brushed her hand away, "I'm fine, just tired. I may have over done it with the wards,"he said, trying to give her a small smile. It didn't help much.<br/><br/>"Ok, if you're sure...I talked to Finny, and he doesn't trust Briarwood, either. He's upped the guard for tonight, and says that we wont be stopping tomorrow. We're riding straight through to Vadosa,"
