Complete stillness. Scipio's eyes shot open a few hours before dawn, but other than that there was no sign that he had woken. He had slept like the dead, which ironically was very little. But it was enough for him. He observed everything in the darkness with deep red eyes that would, in a moment, shift to it's regular almost-brown. From his books packed neatly in one corner, to the lantern hanging above his head, to the clean but stiff waiter's garb he had put up to dry everything was where he'd left it. He quietly stood, moving his stiff joints. By Clavicus Vile I wish I were warm. No matter. He knew that he would feel the sun's sting soon enough. He silently packed his things, leaving the bedroll and tent, and dressed himself in something warmer- A set of leather boots and braces, fur-lined leggings to keep out the snow, and one of his favorite shirts- red with a diamond dragon on the front, a symbol of his home. Luckily, it was both a symbol of the empire and of the dragonborn, so he wasn't likely to draw too much attention by wearing it. Throwing on a black coat with white trim, he stepped out of the tent. He would find Falin, let her sleep a few hours before they set out. The first person he saw was Makor, lying there on the ground. There's always something you forget isn't there, Scipio chided himself. At his sudden transformation, Scipio assumed that Makor would spend his nights howling at the moon. He hadn't even thought to get a tent for the werewolf. Rolling his eyes, the bard poped back into the tent for a moment to retrieve a blanket and throw it on the restless orc. Next he passed Eivor's tent, smiling at the thought of her. She was a beutiful woman, and very different from anyone he'd met for sure. He was glad that he had the chance to meet her. Then he walked by what he called the 'ice dome', inhabited by a newblood that he knew little about. She was a skilled mage yes, and a bit stuck-up, but who was she? and how would she feed? would she be feral? civilized? brutal? or would she starve herself to the point of no return? Scipio knew he'd keep an eye on her, but he'd have to be discreet about it. Hjalund's tent was empty. Sighing, Scipio began walking to where he thought Falin might be. I guess I need to find them and tell them both to get some rest.
