"but I shall take advantage of resting while I have it." Valaina's eyes light up when she heard... erm... the tall dward, his name escaped her, mentioned rest. Yes, sleeping was a perfect way to avoid conversation. A smile made its way onto her face, not to mention if she woke up early enough she could easily slip away from the group. The spirit may give her nightmares but that was a small price to pay for a few extra days of life. Right?
At any rate she was in no condition to slip away now, she was tired... "Kolmar's right. We can't start planning until we know more...We will know more come dawn." Vivi moved the trees around so they sort of formed some kind of large shelter. Slowly she stood up and walked to her horse trying to find her heavy quilt blanket that she made for herself from old scraps of clothing and other fabric that she came across on her travels. It wasn't well made, the stitching uneven and sloppy, but it would undoubtedly keep anyone who took shelter with it warm. The blanket itself was large because she liked to wrap herself up in it like someone was holding her close and keeping her safe while she slept, otherwise falling asleep would be near impossible for her.
Pulling her ridiculously large blanket into her arms as if hugging it she turned around and scanned the area. Hesitantly, making her way over to the large shelter created by Vivi. She wasn't sure at first if Vivi was willing to share her shelter but... it was big enough so she could only assume. Her feet had stopped moving as soon as she got to the entrance as if debating walking in or walking away. Scanned the area before looking over her shoulder at her horse whom had already started to fall asleep. Perhaps inviting herself into the shelter wasn't a good idea?
After a second or so, as she was about to back away and sleep by her horse, she noticed Kolmar had already fallen asleep in the shelter, and it seemed he didn't have anything to protect him from the chills of night. She bit her lip and looked down at the large blanket she was currently hugging before stepping inside and walking over to Kolmar. She had enough to share... and she wouldn't feel right letting him sleep with out anything to keep him warm. Even if she was planning on waking up and running away before dawn she didn't want him to become ill. He seemed like a nice enough person and it would just be cruel to let him sleep cold.
After standing over him for a while, watching him sleep, she laid down next to him and stretched her blanket over the both of them. She figured since she was going to wake up before anyone else it wouldn't mater if she slept next to him, right? She would wake up early, put away all her things and leave, and no one would know the difference. Slowly she wrapped herself in the small amount of access blanket and laid her head down on a root. It was uncomfortable but she hadn't brought a pillow with her... so this was the best she could do. She wished Vivi could have made them some kind of bed or something like that. It would have been much more comfortable.
It took a while, what seemed like an endless amount of time, but sleep finally managed to over take her. Her breathing slowed and her once tense body relaxed as some of the most pleasant dreams filled her mind. She dreamed of a lot of things that night, she was staying in a small house that she could call her own, talking to someone she considered her friend about how great her husband was, though later on she would realize she never got to see her dream husband, it was only a long chat with her friend about how everything was great...
Something started calling her in her dream. The voice didn't match the voice of her guest, it sounded like it was coming from outside at first but then her guests lips started to move. "W-what?" She whispered in both her dream and reality as her mind was slowly pulled from her most pleasant dream.
She blinked her eyes a couple of times waiting for her vision to focus as she let out a small grown.
