Veshikk wakes up after a long as forget nap. He had a terrible nightmare about week long finals and nocturnal sleep patterns.
He stands up unsteadily. A new man sits in the cave with Blatsa and Öln. Fear shoots through his sleep-addled body until he realizes the body languages of all people in the cave are calm. He concludes that this new man is no threat.
His mouth is unbelievably dry and his stomach is grumbling. How long was I out? He walks towards the fire and sits near Öln. After a moment, he notices the pine stored in the cave and takes out a log. He begins to heat it over the fire and collects the pitch leaking out in the bladder. While doing this, he speaks quietly, saying, "Öln, who is this?"
