Songbird is seeing Keki as a fellow concubine.   Or wishes such,  through the true worth of Keki is her skill as a scout, a pathfinder and not that as a concubine.   Sure she is a comely female,  and one should indulge such.   Songbird sees it if she is not a concubine, then the master would likely sell her.   Thus, him not showing concern and taking her onto his horse or having Songbird ride with her.  Means to Songbird that one day her sister slave will be sold.    On the other hand,  a bit of hurt had been seen in Keki.   She wants to be excepted.   But she doesn't view herself as a concubine.  A  female who like any person or individual around heighten sexual atmosphere and the concubine definitely heightened the sexual tension.  That even Diabelle has felt it.  So for Keki is just a woman that wants to get laid and/or pleasured.  A part of her wanted to ride with him and another part wants to be the scout,  what she is good at.  So there is no disappointment for her overall.<br/><br/>No trap is seen by Diabelle.  The group would have to dismount.   The sun is up enough, that it's no longer dim lighting.  Outside of the cave, but entering the cave entrance.  It reverts back to dim lighting.   The horses can be brought in the cave, the opening is large enough and the first part of the cave is wide and tall enough for all four horses and themselves with four times the space to spare.<br/><br/>It does not look like the horses can be taken farther back into the cave.  For a path  leading deeper is at the end,  and it narrows and is only about six feet in height the path or tunnel to be precise.   No sign of the hermit, through there is signs of occupation has occurred.  Old campfire pit in the larger cavern they have entered.   With a spot against one of the walls with small bones that have evidence of having been in a fire,  thus cooked.<br/><br/>The choice is to leave the horses in the cavern entered.  They be secured and protected from the harsh sun and sand.   However, if one does not stay back and see to them in watching over them,  there is a chance they could fall into antagonists.  Especially if more assassins are following them.<br/><br/>The group has another three hours of exploration this day.  So either can continue or stop here.   And if choose to explore further down the narrower tunnel.   Would they all go or one left behind.  Overall a sense of the hermit has not been here in a while.
