It was rather unfortunate that the nightmarish ghoul didn't move over to his ridge.
Because if it had, it would be easier for Daru to track the horror. However, since it didn't, he decided to check the tracks the next day.
It wouldn't be wise to do it now that he was spent.
While it would be easy to switch ridges, that was for the four-armed, long-limbed horror.
It would take quite a lot out of Daru to do the same, and if he were forced to fight in such an exhausted state, he would more likely die than not.
He promised the folks of Egress that he would be prioritizing his safety first and his mission second.
So, he retrieved his sleeping bag, laid it down, and nestled himself in it.
The covers blocked the chilly winds, making the temperature inside the hollow perfect for him.
It didn't take Daru long to drift off.
He woke up almost exactly eight hours later, fully revitalized and ready to pick up where he left off.
