The next day, after cleaning up the camp and putting everything back into the dimensional storage, they continued their journey across the grassland. Ard, walking in front with Geoffrey, Irwin, and Ainsley, looked back. He saw Eva, Alicia, Milia, Patricia, Rosalind, Beatrice, Mirea, and Claudia looking exhausted with bags under their eyes.
"Hey, what's wrong with them?" Ard asked.
"Oh... them? Looks like they didn't sleep all night," Ainsley said.
"Yep, they were arguing all night... except for Rosalind, who just kept sitting by the fire," Irwin countered.
"Exactly. I, for one, got plenty of sleep and feel great now," Geoffrey boasted.
"Yeah, which is why I had to stand guard all by myself," Ard replied, annoyed.
"Relax, bro, don't get mad," Geoffrey said, putting his arm around Ard.
