They really are a good bunch. So much for those who say humans have no honor. Stifling a yawn, he approaches the three while unbuckling some straps on his armor. "Well, the two of thee can stop slacking off now, eh? I think I need to catch meself some shut-eye now, if I am to lead the bunch of ye against those hobbos in the morrow, for sure." His words would have seemed quite dour and a tad boorish, if it wasn't for that catch he wasn't able to keep from slipping into his voice. "And do not let meself catch thee asleep on thy posts, eh?" Finally having removed his armor, Rolf quickly but carefully arranges it between some pieces of oiled leather, before finally getting into his bedroll.

He had clearly felt - something. Different from the feeling of a healing potion or a wand - it was as if something hideous and malignant had been removed from him. He hadn't really known it was there until he felt it leave. Rolf's comments shake him out of his stupor a bit. He finally manages to smile, and replies, "Don't worry about that, Rolf. I'm going to have to spend some serious time figuring out what to do about my hair, anyway." He runs his hands through the uneven clumps still attached to his head - more hairs fall out and drift to the ground, covering his bedroll. He puts on his armor and prepares his weapons - odd that he was doing that for a very different purpose just a few seconds ago - and readies himself for his watch. I had just finally started to really come to terms with it, and then it's gone. I guess that's the way the gods work - they never want to make things easy for you. Still, what if Pen's right... what if Tyr really is watching out for me? Seems odd and unlikely, but how else can I explain what just happened? He begins to stroll around the camp, looking and listening into the night. When he passes by Pen's bedroll, he notices she's not yet asleep. He leans over and whispers, "When you next speak to Tyr... make sure you thank him for me." He walks on, bow at the ready.

She hugs Pen and Alex, laughs at Rolf's mock reprimand, and compares patches of hair loss with Alex. Even being partially bald doesn't bring her down. Wait till I see myself in a looking glass for the first time though...... Things have worked out well (or at least a lot better than they could have), and Nadia is grateful to Pen and her god Tyr. And to Eber too. If he hadn't know what the vargouilles were and what effect their kisses would have, Pen wouldn't have known what to do cure her and Alex. Nadia makes a mental note to thank Eber in the morning, and she's careful to keep her voice low and to walk quietly when she's near him so that he can continue to sleep peacefully for the rest of the night. She's a bit bleary-eyed when dawn finally arrives. But she's glad to be there, and to see - through her own eyes - the sky slowly brightening with Lathander's morning light. She finds a quiet place near the wagon to say her prayers and prepare for the day.

She replies to Alex in a tired but still satisfied with the way things turned out voice, "First thing in the morning, I'll be sure to tell him." Pen sleeps like a dead woman until the camp stirs in the morning.

Today, especially, he has reason to be thankful since both Alex and Nadia were cured last night, and except for a little hairloss, both will be fine. Knowing that it was through Pen's power that they were healed, Eber offers up a small prayer of thanks to Tyr at the very end. Hopefully, Moradin won't mind.

She gets Rolf to go with her and look around in the vicinity where the noise seemed to come from. Lucky for them, they come across a fresh print in a bare spot. Unfortunately they can't tell much from looking at it, nor are they able to find any other tracks leading away. "At least we know it was not just an animal," Nadia says to Rolf as they return to the camp. It is decided that a little scouting around is in order. Eber makes Alex invisible, and the rogue goes off to have a look at the old Temple. He returns and reports that there are four hobgoblins hiding in the rubble around the main gate, and another four hobgoblins up on the temple steps guarding the entrance there. There is also a pack of dogs wandering around inside the compound.
