Bramblepoint break

His sickness was better but nowhere near resolved. He at least felt okay enough to travel, although he kept to the back of the group due to his slower pace and occasional need for a break. It was probably a good thing, though; he had avoided Nirali since their disagreement, and he wasn't eager to converse with her now. He couldn't help but feel out of place with the group and that, plus his frustration with his weakness kept him quiet and brooding as they moved from the lake to the woods. The scents from the forest were familiar and even though they held good memories, he still wasn't able to shake his sour mood. He looked forward to when they were settled and he could go off on his own and be sick and sullen in peace.
