Forgive me for taking this long. The work has been very hectic this month.

Someone was shaking me. That startled me awake. I do not remember falling asleep.

"If you wish to eat I would suggest you wake up, little girl."

It was Khamûl. Then again who could it have been? Reluctantly I opened my eyes only to find out it was early morning.

"When did we stop for the night, Khamûl? I cannot remember getting of the horse."

"You were asleep when we stopped. Thought you needed the sleep."

Khamûl looked away from me. What was going on? Was he being nice to me? I had been looking at my hands but now I stole a glance at him. I caught him looking at me though he turned his head immediately when he noticed me watching his facial impression strange.

What was happening?
