[Dat Basitin]

OOC: your post.... read my last IC

[Dotzrus]

Hey... is Mark home?

(=We are north of your position, circling the base of this hill.=)
*To Henry*
(=Can't say... not much else would live in this weather.=)

[Dat Basitin]

*The guard.* "No.... we have no idea where he is. He disappeared a few weeks ago. Everyone is worried."

*Zena.* (We're closing in on your position, we're going to set up camp for the night. Please halt further progress.)

[Dotzrus]

(=Very well. You heard her Henry.=)
*They find a clearing for camp*

Odd... did he happen to leave any books behind?

[Dat Basitin]

*The guard.* "And why would I tell you that?" *does not know who dotz is.*

*Another guard whispers to him.*

*The first guard.* "Oh, I'm sorry sir.... please help us find him. He left his books in his study." *gives Dotz directions.*

*Zena and co reach Henry and Terry.* <Good work for today.> *sets up night shifts.* <And now that you all have your assignments it's time to dig in, burrows go to the left of that tree. Block your entrances with snow. I'll come back with food.> *walks off.*

[Dotzrus]

*Terry nods and makes his burrow, copying the others around him*

It's alright.
*I head to his study and look at every book cover, and if there is no title, I read the first few pages*

[Dat Basitin]

*The hex book Silvia was using is missing. It was probably left at DB and Karen's house. The hex books for the most part are uncyphered and in plain language. However the cure books, the potions mark sells to poor costumers who bought his other products, doesnt seem like spells at all. Instead contained in the pages are old kiedran songs about stars and valleys. Most of them old time slave songs about freedom. The book, 'trade secrets' however is completely illegible.*

*Zena comes back with plenty of moose and one sabertooth.*

[Dotzrus]

=Someone was hungry.=
*Laughs a bit*

[Dotzrus]

...well... this isn't my cup of tea...
*I take a cure book back to Karen*
I will read these to you and see if they make sense, okay?

[Dat Basitin]

*Zena.* <I try to watch my figure.> *Rubs herself like she has a beer belly, but she really doesnt.*

*The other wolves snicker and dig in.* <Ha! better in the tundra where the real wolves roam! Those who sit at home miss out!>

*Kare.* (....Um.... ok.) *No idea what's going on.*

[Dotzrus]

*I read a few pages of the cure book, hoping she can decipher something.*

=I could see you guys setting up settlements out here and establishing trade with the main city... well at least those not in the military.=

[Dat Basitin]

*Karen.* (I.... I know that song.... I remember it from when I was really little. Why are you singing this?)*

*Jerome.* <Aye, but how will we defend those whom we do not live with?>

*Gene.* <Because we are undivided we are strong.>

[Dotzrus]

=You make a good point... but these are still good hunting grounds.=

This was in Mark's hex cure book. If I can crack it, I can turn you back.

[Dat Basitin]

*Karen.* (I dont know what to tell you... It's just a song Mom used to sing to use before bed. In the valleys low the voices sing, humble were the early kings, bright gold and meat for all abound, but the rumble his his mighty sound, the earth it quaked and shattered bones, trees of steal and a sea of blood, in came the flood, as the horns rang true, it swept right through until the sun was found.)

*Zena.* <I agree, a good place to expand to when we grow.>

[Dotzrus]

...knowing Mark... would that give us any clues about the hex.

=Good, I'm glad. I just hope our friend in the sky will be willing to share.=

[Dat Basitin]

*Karen.* (Maybe the cypher is hidden somewhere and those arnt the real books?)

*Jerome laughs.* <I dont think he has much of a choice. Superwolves are at the top here!>

[Dotzrus]

=...If you say so... but something feels off...=

[Dat Basitin]

*Henry.* <What's wrong?>
