@Eviledd1984The demon-man didn't exactly feel satisfied by Xavier's reassurance. They were still rather close to the main road and this could mean two different things: Either the likelihood of thieves, marauders and other folks of that kind passing by was decreased because there were so many traders and travellers around who would see things, or it was increased because there were so many traders and travellers around who could be robbed. However, Madawc didn't cling to the topic and fell asleep soon. He didn't snore.
Xavier had already been keeping on his promise for several hours when there was a second noise. The mute had entirely forgotten about the first one he had heard hours ago, and in fact that one had not turned out to be of any importance after all. Yet this one was peculiar so he decided to investigate, even if that meant leaving the campsite behind for several meters.
Having made his way into the surroundings, the warrior had barely enough time to raise his sword and parry the incoming attack. Was this a man or a beast ? It was so dark and he had to pay attention to other things now that he couldn't decide just yet. He yelled the thing into the face: "Madawc! Get here!" Hopefully that pudgy man would get onto his feet quickly - if he woke up.
He did. That's what Xavier could see in the corner of his view, but his companion wasn't prepared for combat, and having been asleep until right now probably wasn't the best precondition in such a situation.
