Strafe nodded and replied to Kaga, "Yeah. Let's enjoy ourselves while we're still young."
Snork said, "Come one! Let's get the food!"
In the golden light of the late afternoon, Snork and the others had gathered around a flat rock near the lake. The rock was piled high with fruit, treestars, tree sweets, and other things that had been rare treats before reaching the Great Valley.
Snork said as he ate a handfull of tree sweets, "It's been some journey, guys. I don't think I ever could have made it here without you. Perhaps later on, we can meet some of the locals later, but whe I'm done with this meal, I'm goin to take a nice long rest."
Strafe had never hade juicy treestars or fruit this good. She was lucky to get small, mostly dry treestars before.
She said to Snork, "If I hadn't met you. I don't know if I would have made it even half way. Thank you."
Snork got up, nodded, and said, "Well, I'm going to rest now. My sore muscles need it.
