We decided to gather water , fire , wood , and hunt some small animals before night fell . I also convinced everyone to camp in the same area that we camped at last time . This time while going through the forest we didn’t run into any enemies or traps . Some of the reinforcements that swarmed on us must’ve came from here . By the time night came we had already came up with a new plan . With the extra members and the extra time . I felt this conquest was going to be fool proof . We also had 7 people to rotate scout duty with . Which made me feel more confident that we’ll be well rested .

Visceroy guided the 3 of us to fully brief him on everything that we’ve encountered . We went over our main objectives and then decided to split up for resources . Once everyone got comfortable we decided to gameplan and reveal to each other our individual skillsets that weren’t already evident .

I , like always did most of the talking for us with the fellas randomly adding extra information here and there . We explained our powers which were pretty simple . I told him how I have an affinity with engineering and technology of all ages when I activate mines . John can power up his physical abilities and Bulls Eye can mark objects and have them target another object or person he targets .

Visceroy explained how he can summon a magical gold staff that can change in size , width and length . That explains the giant staff that saved us ! Rose is a medic, who also possesses water healing magic . Wade and Illdred don't have powers , but they are trusted soldiers who could beat any of us in a non magic or ability fight . After getting a good picture of what each other could do we decided that we should be strong enough to just fight our way through . Our main goal would be to protect Rose so that she could heal us if we’re poisoned . She said after her magical treatments , that we’ll be fully recovered when we woke up .

After we were done gathering resources we decided to relax and trade adventure stories . It turns out that Visceroy was a well traveled adventurer . He has battled legendary creatures and discovered rare species of animals . He told a story about how he fell in love with a princess from a small village , but her father forbid them because he was a bulldog (She was a wolf dog like me and Bulls Eye). We laughed , the people in the village called Sikro might be related to us . After realizing just how much we’ve been through the 4 of them decided to keep watch tonight . So me , John and Bulls Eye decided to take a bath in small pond we discovered . After we washed up , we made our nests and crashed .

RAAAAAWWRRR! I was awoken by a loud roar . It seemed to alert Visceroy as well . He was the one keeping watch . He climbed to my branch and asked me “ What the hell was that ?” I told him “ I have no idea , Out of all the things we ran into during our adventure . We haven’t ran into anything near the size of something that could sound that big . Judging by the sound it seemed to echo as well , which makes since because in the moonlight we definitely didn’t see anything big enough to make a sound so loud . We weren’t the only 2 alerted by the sound . Birds were fluttering away from the direction of the cave . After being up for about 30 minutes , I decided to go back to sleep .
