<br/>Sesskar listen to the woman and nodded his head to her ...moving to make the motion as one group started out towards that ruins in the desert. Others moved to position themselves and camp was broke ..soon small fires would line the area identifying their presence. It was smart to rest and move forward in the evening as it would be cooler . Giving the rest needed to the troops brought with them and maybe a way to examine the land via the cover of night . As indeed their eyes allowed them to see better than most in the evening hours.<br/><br/>The news of water was interesting ..would give them something that the desert lands of the WitchKing did have little of . Though the eerie death tomb silence of the place tapped at the back of his mind as he moved about not really able to find much peace with this place. His mind and eyes looking up and along the red clay cannon walls.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"then past midnight we shall move our troops closer to the ruinsss where our scouts shall locate the nearest large building from which we shall have a better defensesss as I feel we are now quite vulnerable in this place". She spoke, making known of her plan to Sesshkar, her right hand lieutenant, suddenly remembering that the scout reported seeing a stream of water and a pool, she began to comment regarding that"...and it seemsss the witchking wasss right about this place, there isss a hidden prossspect here still</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><br/>Returning his gaze back to her<strong>.." As always Sithera ..your wisdom is sound ...I agree with your plan completely. " </strong>as he moved back over to her<strong>.." Let us move down to this enclosure that the scout spoke of . I think it will give you some privacy to allow ample rest . "</strong>As he placed his hand on the nape of her back and pulled her forward some .<br/><br/>As they moved along he added<strong>.." My gut tells me that whatever happened here that the civilization is now entombed in that mountain. I only know of stories of travelers that have moved through this realm ..none of that ever made much sense and all just seemed to avoid this region. Though being here now does make my scales stand at attention . Even in saying that ..Sithera I find a beauty in the red swirls of the cliffsides like they call out to my soul or something. "</strong>as he spat it out . Odd really for Shesskar was no romantic in any way ..moving along till they reached the place .<br/><br/>A tarp was place above the enclosure and bed rolls were laid out ..to make a semi comfortable place amongst the stone enclosure. The fresh water was brought and some food was prepared least enough to feed the troops from the journey. Sesshkar guarded the entrance area ..looking back over as he positioned himself on a large rock . Sharpening his blade ..with a stone tool . The sound of it echoed as it went against the metal . The sun had lowered and the sky was indeed a beautiful sight . He had rested earlier for a few hours but more had tossed and turned with the strange visions of a woman that walked out of the desert . It had been so real ...as his eyes roamed the vastness.<br/><br/>Soon it would be the midnight hour as he looked up watching the progress of the full moon as its eerie glow seemed to give a new dimension to the side of the mountain . Eliminating the shadows and the dances of the flames of the fires now all dying down to just raw embers . The night had grown cold with a chill that even he had to respect. Moving back to his love ..as her lowered himself down next to her and stroked the side of her face<strong>.." Sithera ..the midnight hour approaches .." </strong>as his hand moved to massage her shoulder and pull her to him. Tucking his head downward as he nuzzled his chin on her forehead no one would notice the tenderness that he displayed to the woman for the others around were still resting .<strong>"Keep your guard up this night , and stay close to me ..I do not wish to loose you.
