Okay. He knew their would be dangers with this course of action. And he knew their would be difficulties of the physical sort, such as lugging this accursed chest around. But damn if he isn't stubborn.  He's not going back 'home' any time soon.<br/><br/>He, like Daria, was relieved when they finally got the Elf Camp, and he set the chest down, but kept near to it. No need to risk having someone, like those two children approaching, messing around with their treasure.<br/><br/>"Yes, I am." He'd say a mere moment after Deneve said the that he and Daria were from the Fort. Even though he hadn't heard the term before, the way the elf on the beach used it led him to believe that the Fort is what they meant when they said Unnatural Hill. Made sense to him, too.<br/><br/>Deneve brings up a good point, and he considers it. They could find more people; or more treasure. They could also find danger, which has thus far eluded them, even if that gigantic<em>thing</em>in the Ocean was a stark reminder that they're basically prisoners on this island. "The elves might have already combed along the other parts of the beach, but I'm willing to go again." Although...the smell of cooking food does have him salivating.
