*****

Beatrice stumbled over a protruding root, her boot toe catching when she didn’t step high enough. Cursing, she regained her balance and continued on, plodding alongside the gelding. Silverblade, stoic as always, continued silently on the horse’s other side.

She was foot-sore, sweaty, hungry, and thirsty, not to mention dirty as a pig. Actually, she had a sneaking suspicion a pig might smell better than she did at the moment. But the knowledge that the acolytes could even now be somewhere behind them on their trail would keep her to this pace for several candlemarks more. Better to be exhausted and possessing a few new blisters than to be sucked dry by an acolyte or have to call upon her death magic again. There was no way she was ready for that again so soon.

“There is a small rise in the land ahead, where the river cuts through the landscape and creates a small waterfall. If the acolytes haven’t already found it, there should be a small stash of supplies we can use. If we see no signs that the acolytes have been there, we’ll make camp for the night before making the next leg of the journey.”

“Are you sure we should be stopping for the night already? We still have candlemarks more of daylight. We could just grab the supplies and keep going.”
