CHAPTER 19

Meeting with the Pamens again, was something which Enepel Zaanven secretly hoped for, when he decided to take the refuge in the rainforests of Amn’oaz. But for it to happen this soon and all of the sudden, just the few days upon his arrival here, could only be contributed to a blind luck. And elf surely needed some right now. Alongside with the help, Pamens would undoubtedly offer to him.

But that was the last thing on Zaanven’s mind, right now. He found himself amongst old friends. And for at least one brief moment, he could afford to set his worries aside. To enjoy their company and reminisce about past. Because in the end, this would ultimately bring him the relief and the peace of mind, he desperately needed. And it already showed, seeing that elf slept the entirety of the last night. Once he finally woke up, he realized it was long after the sunrise.

Simple, somewhat loose and rickety hut, made out of wattle and mud, was similar to the one he found in that abandoned hunting camp. And yet it seemed much comfier. Enepel certainly felt more rested. Not because of the bed. Nor the location. He was still in the same jungle. But with one significant difference, he was not alone anymore. Elf put his clothes back on, struggling to stand up. Grazing the ceiling with the top of his head a few times. Halfling structures weren’t known for beeing tall, not that Zaanven ever complained. But if he was about to stay with the Pamens, he’d have to insist on a bigger head clearance. And certainly bigger doors. For he almost had to crawl through these, as he was exiting the hut.

“Did you sleep well?” Mourdac asked, kicking the dirt over the fire.

“You are waiting on me?” Enepel asked back, once he noticed every hut bar his, was flattened down and removed from the field “Why didn’t you wake me up?”

“Need no worry my friend.” Pamen chieftain smiled “We are waiting for our scouts to return.”

“Where are we going?” Enepel asked.

“Hunting.” Mourdac answered “Our last attempt didn’t go quite as planned.”

“And I am sorry for that.” Enepel said “I’ll do my best to redeem myself.”

“I know you will.” Mourdac winked “I hope you didn’t forget to hunt like a Pamen.”

“I always managed to beat you.” Enepel smiled.

“Because I’ve let you.” Mourdac retorted.

“Not even your hunters believe in that.” Zaanven was fast to reply.

“Then I guess I have to show them.” Mourdac said.

“Is that a challenge I hear?” Enepel asked.

“Are you planning to use you bow?” Mourdac asked.

“Yes.” Enepel nodded.

“Are you sure?” Mourdac asked again.

“Yes.” Enepel said.

“That makes thing much easier.” Mourdac was already sure of triumph and he didn’t even bother to hide it “So how are we going to do this?”

“We can always go with whoever catches the most.” Zaanven suggested.

“Until the end of the day.” Mourdac said “Agreed?”

“Agreed.” Zaanven shook chieftain’s hand.

“The flock has returned!” Elonthier yelled from the edge of the forest, while gasping for breath.
