"Yes I can gather more wood. He said grabbing a club sized Stick from her pile. He breathed a flame on to the end making a torch. "I'll be back shortly." He said making his way a steep path towards the woods. Where he began Cutting down dead branches and collected them in his traveling cloak, using it as a sack.
A few minutes later he made his way back to the mini campsite. With plenty of wood to keep a smallfire going for most of the night.

Dante nodded and quickly went about lighting the campfire she built. Being that they were going to be there all night, she had taken off of over clothing and she was sitting on her Kimono with her Hakama tied around her waist and her gold bra like strap hanging around her chest. "It's going to be a warm and humid night, I do hope you won't mind my appearance," the shaolin warrior said. She ran her fingers through her hair and a heavy sigh escaped her lips.
She picked up a long straight stick from the pile Horu had brought back and used it to stir the fire. She then searched through the pockets of her Kimono and pulled out a small flask and tossed it to him, "It will help you calm your mind of the previous events."

He took the flask and sniffed its content's. Then he shook his head and sat it down. "That will be fine I'd rather keep those thoughts in tact." he said as he removed the top layers of his heavy armor. She said she was concerned about her appearance, and He smiled.
He looked at her womanly form not with lust, she was a beautiful creature but he didn't see her as an object she was just another pretty person. "Your appearance is not displeasing. I have nothing against it." He said as he laid his Red and gold armor on the ground near the fire. "and I hope you don't mind that during your watch I rest without armor. Metal scales don't make the best bed." He said now that he was in nothing but a cloth tunic, his leather pants and his toeless boots that chowed his claw like toes.

"I mind not Dragonborn," Dante said. She leaned over and picked the flask back up. "It's just ginger tea," she said, paying little mind to the fact several vicious looking scars on her back and the back of her shoulders became very visible to him as she had leaned over. She sat back and took a sip from the flask and letting a meditative deep breath free from deep within her chest.
Her golden eyes looked to the fire as she stirred it and placed more wood on the fire. She listened to the soft sound of the wind through the trees outside. It was a sound that she found rather relaxing being that she felt no malevolence on the wind. It was going to be a warm and humid night, over head, dark storm clouds began to block out the rising moon and the rising stars. Perhaps it would even be a good night to get some training in. Training in the rain always made the dark feelings from her past seem to wash away.
Perhaps it was from tears she refused to cry. Dante didn't care. Dante stood for a moment to lean back and crack her back free of it's tightness from walking. "What made you decided to be a dragonborn Horu?" she inquired.

"Hmm... wel it wasn't quite a choice really. It was an honor. Our entire viliage has many different gods it worships. it just depends on their profession. I was a Guardian, a knight and I worshiped the divine protector. When he Called upon me and asked if I wanted to be more like him I jumped at the chance. With it I gained strength. and a few extra years of natural life. I also have stronger senses and elemental breath. One day, i will have wings as well." He explained this as he laid on his back an stared at the millions of stars.

Dante sat down with a drop onto the hard dirt ground. "Hm, I was born into my profession I guess," she said, shrugging elegantly. She rubbed her bare shoulders once, for the pain of taking out the bloodborns was starting to catch up with her. She looked at him and saw the hope in his eyes about having wings, "exactly what I meant by you are angels in comparison," she said in a mutter. She closed her eyes and listened to the popping and cracking of the fire.
"You seem to believe in this god like it is your lifeline," she then said. Dante folded her legs in indian style as she poked at the fire with her stick. "What does your religion require you to believe in anyway?" she asked in a slight curious tone.

"Well..." He let out a yawn showing his teeth. "Bahamut only asks that we uphold the law. that we show honor. He asks us to protect those that can not protect themselves, and to promote the old ways of chivalry. It's a righteous path that I take. And I'm proud of it. Aren't you proud of your profession?"

"Well," Dante started, scratching her cheek. "I can't really say one way or another. I was born into it more or less. I was an abandoned child and the monks took me in and raised me," she explained. Dante shrugged then, a wide yawn coming from her as she slipped down onto her side. She continued to poke at the fire with her stick until it was time to put another log on the fire.
Dante absentmindedly slid the stick under one of the logs and balanced the log on her stir stick until it was over the fire, then she lowered it down and shifted it into position. "When it's something you're raised into I guess, some things that are a choice seem a bit," she paused, pursing her lips, "Odd."
