Jasille kept the fire going while he stood watch, not letting it burn down. Occasionally, he would move to the edge of the clearing and gather a few more sticks, but he always remained in sight of the fire and the tents. It was boring, tedious work, but work that was needed. They could be ambushed in the night, and it would be Jasille's fault. So, he remained vigilant.
When Thea emerged from her tent, Jasille greeted her with a small smile and a wave. When she told him that she could take a turn watching, he politely shook his head. "I feel fine, my lady. There is no need...you need rest, as well, and it is barely even midnight. Still, if you wish, I would not mind you joining me...There is not much else to do, and if having you near will keep me from falling asleep..." He smiled kindly before he poked the fire with a stick he had found, adjusting a couple of the logs.
"How did you fare today?" he asked, glancing over towards her. "I hope our pace didn't hurt you too terribly..."
