@Fetzen

Xavier let out a soft moan hating that he was just scared by the pudgy man,Moaning softly shaking his head not know what he wanted by trying it out.

Writing on a piece of parchment giving it to him asking what he meant by trying it out.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

"It was an offer." Madawc answered in a friendly manner. "Are you ready or do you want to stay overnight and start early in the morning ?" He hoped that the mute would opt for the latter. "Did I surprise you ? I had the short impression that you were scared. Sorry for that..." he raised his hands in a defensive gesture and put them down again.

[Eviledd1984]

Xavier wrote down something on a piece of parchment handing it to the pudgy man,"Let us head out now before the sun sets, We can camp once it gets dark" Was what was written on the parchment. The mute would be happy to leave Meche and get back home to Bravado where he can enjoy being praised by his king.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

Madawc pocketed the parchment. It could possibly be re-used by scratching away the superficial ink as parchment was far more robust than ordinary paper, however it also was expensive. The demon-man wasn't really happy about leaving city right now, but he wouldn't put himself in Xaviers way. Camping... well... he had been passing his nights this way for years. This would probably me more of an inconvenience for the mute warrior than for him.

Looking at the sun for an estimation how long it would still shine across the sky, he mounted his newly bought horse again. Xavier could notice it groan under his companion, who immediately started to turn around and slowly find his path along the streets towards the city gate. "Then let's head out."

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier was worried that he had angered Madawc by not wanting to to wanting to wait for the next morning for them to then ride off to, The mute hopped onto his horse and riding off onto the path that would lead to Bravado. He was happy that he had secured the relationship between Meche and Bravado and he would be praised by his king which was a plus.

He thought however if Madawc would be chased out or killed if meeting the king or The Red Doves would want to kill him.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

The two men's progress was smooth and steady. Soon, they had left the gates of Meche behind them and were on their way to Bravado, using the main routes. It would take a few more hours till sunset, the time they had decided to put up their camp and have some rest. Madawc had taken off his heavy armor, the demon-man just was confident enough not to need it soon. The comfortable cloth beneath it now was revealing the man's belly that bulged at least three inches over his belt.

"Xavier ? You told me you wanted to become stronger. I tell you: You have to exercise more for that. And eat more after that as well."

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

When they were camping out near the road with the mute cross legged sharping his weapon, Xavier wrote down something on a piece of parchment handing it to Madawc. "well i would but i don't want a a noticeable belly like yourself" Was what was written to him with the mute smiling only teasing Madawc not wanting to be mean in his commit.

Finishing up sharping his sword and was eating some bread.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984
Madawc looked down at himself, seeing the chubby mass that was weighing on him and poking into it with his index finger. "Yeah, I know... I've become fat a bit. I'm eating too much, but the demon is driving me I believe. He doesn't care and neither do I very much. However sometimes it can be advantageous to be bloody heavy, something you likely will not profit from for a long time to come." the man teased back. "What do you weigh ?"

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier just had a big smile on his face when the other man said this writing down something on parchment and handing it to him, "I weigh 143 pounds" Was what was written on the parchment when the fat man got the parchment form him. Xavier meanwhile was chewing softly on his piece of bread thinking that he would not want to be so heavy even though his armor was a bit on the slow side.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

Madawc hat to grin like a Cheshire cat. "So your less than a half of me." he replied. Then he grabbed some of his own bread and water and started nibbling at it. "That makes you faster, doesn't it ?" he added before stoking up the fire, thinking about if they had gathered enough wood to burn. It got colder and colder. Having finished that and having consumed his ration for today's evening, he addressed the mute again: "Tell me... where exactly did you get your armor from ? It's highly unusual. Actually I've never seen something like this before."

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier wrote on a piece of parchment how he made his armour, What he wrote doe was that he during a raid on his village form Escudo warriors that killed his family and everyone in the village. He lived because he hid in a. Pile of corpses and after the raid he fashioned the bones of the villagers with iron to make the armor.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

Madawc stared at the mute. Bones ? Did he really write bones ? He looked back at the parchment. It didn't just say that, it also added of villagers. The demon-man was very blunt: "So you're a body-stripper ?" Then he laughed. "Who would have thought of that... Not me, that's for sure." He turned his eyes towards his noticeable fat stores, briefly, then back to Xavier. "Well.. you would have to remove something to get access to my bones... but... does this actually improve the armor's properties in any way or is it just for visual impression ?"

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier quietly wrote something on another piece of parchment handing it to Madawc, He thought that perhaps he had scared the pudgy man somewhat but hearing the man laughing making him let out a soft moan. "I use it to scare my enemy usually they are too frightened to fight me and i usually don't take off my helmet because i know they they will be fear me with this face" Was what was written on the piece of parchment.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

"Well... that doesn't work on me." he said smiling. "I prefer not intimidating enemies by appearance, but by my actions alone." He didn't carry this out as a critique, but a simple statement. "Have you planned for anyone of us standing guard or do you believe that won't be necessary ?" Their horses could be stolen, or their other posessions, or they themselves could become victims of an attack... That were some of the thoughts Madawc had in his mind when asking this.

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier wrote something to Madawc and handing the piece of parchment to him, "I can stand guard i don't get much sleep anyway" It said as the mute stood up on his feet looking around and to his horses.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

"You sure ? Both of us need to be rested if we want to continue this journey in an efficient manner." Madawc was indeed a bit skeptical and his voice made no secret out of that circumstance. However, if Xavier would state now that he was sure about it, he wouldn't ask again but snuggle down into his sleeping bag.

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

Xavier nodded his head patting the man's shoulder reassuring him as best he could of course,Standing up form where he was pulling out his sword and looking around making sure also that the fire was hot and burning. He was sure that he heard a noise but it must have been his imagination.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

The 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.

[Eviledd1984]

@Fetzen

The mute had the sudden appearance of some creatures that even caused Xavier's to almost jump out of his seat, Pulling out his sword getting ready for the incoming battle. The creatures looked filthy and something that the world ate and spit out, Cutting down the incoming creature slicing it in half.

Xavier let out a loud moan moving closer towards Madawc wanting him to wake up and help him, Their was about a dozen or more of these creatures that it was hard to keep up.

[Fetzen]

@Eviledd1984

"What the..." were the only words Madawc uttered. He was barely awake, kneeling on the inside of his opened sleeping bag. Can't one have just a single night of good sleep.... The demon-man was far away from being truly prepared for battle: Still blinking, he had not a single piece of his armor put on him. Having a blurred vision, he tried to guess the numer of attackers. The result was shocking, it meant that taking the time to put on his gear would equal letting Xavier become overwhelmed by those... whatever those things were. He had no idea. Alien creatures had been pretty much the bottom line on his list of things he would have expected to happen so close to a main road.

He grabbed his warhammer and charged at the mess that was unfolding before his eyes. Madawc was almost on his bare feet and only wearing thick cloth. It made him lighter and thus faster, an irony if one considered his physique. However, it also meant less protection. So it didn`t take long for him to get bruised and bleeding, but at least it was obvius that Madawc had the upper hand in terms of sheer strength and momentum. This circumstance resulted in an increasing number of crushed skulls and ribcages, but they were far from being safe yet.
