His eyes moved to the valley floor below them, looking for any signs of movement, and listening for any shouts that would indicate an alarm raised.<br/><br/><em>Of course, that presumes they're foolish enough to make plenty of noise</em>he thought, eyes narrowing.<em>I'd be quite happy to let someone I'd spotted come in fat, stupid and happy, then hit them when they thought they were safe.</em>His lips twisted as he kept his watch below.<em> I really wish I thought to teach the rest of them a few bits of sign, so I could warn them if anything is dumb enough to show itself. Well, can't be helped for now.</em><br/><br/>As the normal night sounds returned, or at least the ones that had been there previously, he let out a slow, steadying breath and started on downwards again.<br/><br/><em>At least if anything nasty is waiting down there, hopefully this armour will come as an equally nasty surprise for them.</em>
