CAVERN.

[Another encounter with the Shimmer, another round of confusion, frustration and exhaustion. It's probably going to be a fairly unanimous opinion, but Page much preferred the circle of peaceful corpses over the tree of suffering.

She emerged from the river just in time to hear what the Shimmer had to say, and it leaves a bad taste in her mouth. But regardless of feelings, it's probably wise that they don't move away from this cavern for the time being; the fire, remnants of that horrible tree, is providing light and warmth. They couldn't really ask for much more, especially after spending the past week in darkness.

So Page will swim back to the fire, placing herself in front of it and unwinding her headpiece, letting her locs fall free around her face. She's soaked, miserable and cold. As awful as the source of the heat is, she needs to dry off. The last thing she wants is to fall ill.

Not that it would mean much - sounds like a problem for her body. Wherever that is.

You're free to join her, or do what you will; time to rest, before the new week begins.]

She is an exceptionally reliable individual! Honestly, I don't know what we'd do without her.

Setting ourselves on fire? No, I certainly hope not. I assume we would have a lot more injuries to deal with though. She's also been helping fight the cougars, hasn't she?

Though she doesn't seem to realize just how helpful she's being.

I'd hope we wouldn't be that incompetent, yes...

But that doesn't really surprise me. She's the sort to downplay her own accomplishments, ja? We'll just have to make sure she knows how much we appreciate all she's done for us!
