“We have a month to figure it out”. The two started off quietly to a spot on Kohl’s map. They passed through a thick area of the forest.
“What?” Rowan said hearing Kohl whispering.
“I didn’t say anything” Kohl shot. The whispers continued as they walked through the forest.
“Well I’m hearing someone mutter!” Rowan spat. Kohl stopped and turned. He looked around and squinted.
“It’s probably just the wind. Look, why don’t we make camp” Kohl sighed. “We just need to rest”. They stopped at a small grove of trees behind a boulder and Kohl made a fire just small enough to heat some Colovian tea to share over some bread.
“Let’s just sleep” Kohl said flustered. Rowan frowned and put her hand on her lover’s shoulder. Kohl just grunted and moved away from her. With night slowly approaching, Rowan put her head down. The wind whistled through the trees above and the whispers continued. It was the wind right?
The next morning the two silently woke up, ate the last of their rations and started into the forest. They brought down five rabbits and a wolf before they stopped to skin the animals and head back. All the while Kohl kept stealing glances at Rowan. Not the glances that lovers traded. A look of fear was on his face.
“Are you okay?” Kohl asked as he cleaned his prized Orc dagger off. Rowan rolled her eyes.
