Luna had simply been following along the rest of the group, lost in her thoughts. She was confused by the whole situation. They were saying that Ylissean soldiers attacked them, weren't the Shepherds Ylissean too? It didn't make any sense to her at all. She looked around, weary from all the walking, and the weather. For her, the heat and sun wasn't as bad. But nevertheless she still didn't like it. She was more used to cool windy areas, the desert was the exact opposite. Eerily silent, save for their "merry" band. She quickly located a tree, walked over to it and plopped down. Her legs were screaming at her to rest.
Luna continued lost in her own thoughts, until someone sat next to her. The fully robed girl offered her water. Truth be told, Luna hadn't really gotten too thirsty. But she smiled and accepted it anyway. After taking a small sip of the canteen she handed it back to the robed girl. "You know, you'd be a whole lot cooler if you took that robe off. " She said mimicking the action of taking it off. And maybe I would be too if I turned into a dragon. She thought to herself, before quickly dismissing the thought. They'd be a lot easier to spot with a dragon among them. That wouldn't be good. She shook her head, breaking herself free from her thoughts once more she looked back to the woman beside her. "Oh yeah, what's your name miss? I'm Luna, nice to meet you." She smiled as she introduced herself. She wasn't sure why, but the woman seemed rather trusworthy.
Brandt let out a sigh when the girl agreed to a short rest. He frowned when she mentioned the heat killing them. He wasn't going to object, after all he wasn't fond of sleeping out here. He just needed to stop moving for a minute. He was about to sit when suddenly the girl got down on her hands and knees and began digging. "W-what?" He furrowed his brow trying to figure it out. Moments later it finally hit him. "Ah, I get it. The underlying sand will be cooler than the sand at the top. That's very clever." Before Brandt followed her into the newly dug holes he quickly scanned the horizon in every direction. "Nothing, just sand, sand, and more sand. Same as it was last time I checked." He said the last bit letting out a bitter sigh. He shed his coat and tied the sleeves around his waist, as to keep it out of the way. He walked over and unceremoniously dropped into the nearby hole.
Brandt sat silent for a moment. Then looking over to Kalina he nodded. "Thanks for the digging, grand idea." He sat up in a slightly less relaxed position, deciding he should be a little cautious. "Alright, next up is finding something in this Gods awful place." He mumbled to himself. He sat thinking of what they needed, a town, food, water, and many more things would be nice. The more he thought the less he wanted to rest. If they didn't hurry they could get stuck in the desert at night. That wouldn't be good. But regardless, he let his exhaustion get the better of him. He decided to rest a little longer yet. Fearing he might drift to sleep he tried to get some kind of conversation started. "So, how's it going?" It was a weak attempt at best, but it was all he could manage aside from discussing how dire their situation was.
