"Well, it may get a little bit cold, but not much." replied Myu "It is just the 2nd of Flamerule now, so it is rather warm even at night, unless the cold wind will be blowing, of course. I cannot very well judge whether it will be okay for you or not, Challenger, for personally I am more or less accustomed to the cold weather. But anyway, if you will go to sleep dressed, it is highly unlikely that you will need a warm blanket. Otherwise, you would probably need it, although I seriously doubt it anyway."

"I'll be fine then Myu, worst comes to worst we'll just have to cuddle up together and put my cloak over us." Challenger replied.

"Sure thing!" said Myu, smiling to Challenger.

But then Myu suddenly became more serious and said "I am sorry, Challenger, but I would like to go to sleep a little bit later. There are..." Myu made a short pause, as if thinking how to put it, and then continued "...Some duties I must fulfill. And also there are some answers I must find. Please, go to sleep before me, Challenger, for I can see that you a very tired."

Challenger was about to protest about not being tired but a yawn beat him to it.
"Ok I guess you've got a point." he said as he dropped his backpack on the ground and walked over to Myu.
"Good night Myu see you in the morning." he said as he kissed her on the cheek.
Walking over to his bed roll he sat down kicked his boots off and lay down, closing his eyes.

Challenger closed his eyes…

…And suddenly found himself back to the basement of Lortmil Mountains. The huge dark silhouette of the enemy fortress loomed before him. And all around Challenger were dead corpses – celestials, elves, fiends, and the remnants of the various constructed creatures. Apparently, the great battle was fought here in Challenger’s absence. And whatever this battle’s aftermath was, Challenger knew, that he could do nothing to affect it in any way now, this battle was over, for good or ill…

…As he opened his eyes, Challenger saw, that it was already a late morning. What was just a only a short dream for Challenger, in fact was the whole night and the most of the morning. The sun has already rose from behind the mountain peak, and the morning was quite warm, even though a slight cool breeze was blowing.

Myu was sitting on the grass, not far from Challenger. Her naked and slightly wet body was sparkling slightly in the rays of the morning sun. Challenger could also see, that Myu’s tunic and pants were hanging on the one of nearby bushes, most likely wet as well.

”Good morning, Challenger!” said Myu, seeing that Challenger woke up.

After saying so, Myu gifted Challenger with a charming smile of hers. It seemed, that Myu wasn’t especially shy of Challenger anymore.

”I have decided to take a morning swim.” said Myu then, as if excusing her current condition ”I don’t think that taking a morning swim is something that I will be able to do overly often at where we are going. And I also thought, that my clothing could use a little washing, especially since we will be visiting a friend of yours in Beregost. Anyway, I haven’t hunted anything for breakfast, as I figured out, that hunting some game, and then dressing and cooking it will take me quite a lot of time. However, I gathered some apples, hazelnuts and raspberries. I hope, that you will like them, Challenger, but if you would like to have something else, like meat, I can go for a little hunt right now.”

Not far from himself, within arm’s reach, in fact, Challenger could indeed see two of his plates placed upon Myu’s bedroll, one of the plates contained a dozen apples and some hazelnuts, and the other one was half-full with raspberries.
