Swiftcurrent Creek midnight sun

Njal has some information for @Fox, but the thread is open for anyone else!

It took half a day to return from the mountain's looming shadow, which meant that by the time Njal returned to the perimeter of the territory, night had started to fall. The stars would not be out for a few more hours, but there was still a luxuriant array of colors to be seen above; dark and rich, caught against the drifting bellies of the clouds. The field where he stood had a pretty good view of the sky, what with the sparse trees - so as he marched, he watched.

The heat of the sun was still a very present thing and would linger with the light, perhaps even past dusk and in to the night. By that point Njal hoped to be resting in his den, but... Given what had transpired on the mountain, he had news to relay. That and he had been made absentminded by the conversation he had with Jace. As he departed, he had heard Jace call out one last time. The boy had pledged to never go near the warden's family, and while Njal trusted that, he was still apprehensive. Nothing could come between him and his family, nothing. If there was even a hint of trouble brewing near the creek, it was his duty to seek it out and eradicate it.

Perhaps he wouldn't sleep tonight. An extra patrol couldn't hurt.
