Aela began to drift off to sleep once again. The night seemed pretty calm. Soon Aela fell asleep deeply and after some hours passed the sun began to rise slowly. At the time, Aela was in a deep sleep. Her breath was calm and even. This time she dreamt about meeting other mages who could use fire magic.

Aela realized she was voicing her thoughts aloud. “Sorry about that. Just focus on relaxing and in the morning after breakfast we can start moving around the swamp to reach the mountains.”

Aela returned to her blanket and set out two spots close to her that Emily and Eric could relax she layed down and began to doze again. This time the campfire had burned through all the wood and kindling yet it still blazed by them.

Aela knelt down with Emily and Eric letting them see the book too she read the passage aloud. She paused and looked at the circumference of the swamp. "Seems according to this we don't have to cross the swamp. Instead, we could go around."
Aela ran a finger over the pages reading the passage of the tunnel and paused at fire magic.
"Fire magic... like my own magic? Or could it possibly be different?"

Aela noticed Emily waddle away she approached her carefully with what she was trying to carry in her mouth. She noticed it is the book. Aela helped with Emily handling the book. "Is it okay if I read this again?" With a confirmation from the two she opened the book and began to read the next step starting from the previous step they completed with the bright roses and going to a place where light ends.

Aela held her breath until the movements move away and the sound fades. Aela relaxes and sits back down, breathing a sigh of relief. “That might have been close...that beast seems to be a magical one. I’m not sure as to why mortals would risk going through the swamp. Should we continue to go through it? Does the book say we have to? What if we try to go around?”

As both Eric and Emily leaned against Aela, a sound of movement caught her attention. She quickly moved to her feet, focusing her attention on listening. In the thicket of trees a shadow of something large was moving through the swamp. Branches broke and the trees seemed to crack and snap as it moved. It was big and that thing had massive amounts of mana.
"Eric, Emily if that thing comes out here get behind me immediately. For now just remain calm, and it should leave us alone."

She noticed a duck and toad. “Oh, that was not what we were hoping for...Okay you two come here Aela began setting out places for them to relax. Get some sleep or relax, I will take the night watch.”
Aela moved to the front of the outer radius of the fire listening for any sounds or feelings acc

Aela stirred in her sleep “Eric? Emily? Are you two okay? Do you need something?“ Aela began to sit up and looked around a bit tired and out of it.

Aela was dozing lightly her short sword on the opposite side of her injured arm. Her hands were crossed across her torso and she was breathing calmly. The fire after a while should have gone out, instead it continued to burn even without fuel.

Aela had moved on to sharpening her blades. She was working with a stone over her blades she seemed lost in thought to Eric. The glow of the fire danced across her casting her in a warm orange light. When the fire was low she would tend to it kindly, and return to sharping her swords.

Her mind continued to race even as she laid out a blanket to lay down on she glanced up at the stars with the fire there and her sword skills she wondered if they would be enough. Part of her joke was part of a worry that gnawed in the back of her mind. She had to support the chosen ones.
