After recovering at the hands of the loveliest nurse in the world, Robert was ready to try adventuring once more. Without a word of argument to her company. After all, it had saved him last time.

Truthfully, Mildred hadn't been certain that Robert would willingly allow her to accompany him on his next quest - it was easy to convince herself that joining her had been a possibility by technicality, and that it might not happen again. But here they were, without any further protests or insistence that this was too dangerous, or that she was a liability. QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 63 YOUR HP: 30

Step One
Robert fought another wild boar. He wasn't going to cook this one. IT PROBABLY HAD DYSENTARY.

As gruesome an end as the boar met at Robert's hand - or sword, more specifically - it was not the sight of this that made Mildred feel ill. No, it was something much more similar to dysentery. She cringed as she held up her hand, seemingly attempting to indicate something along 'wait' or 'go on without me', and hurried back towards the kingdom. QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 63 YOUR HP: 30

He was right. Dysentary. Dysentary everywhere. He hated to see her suffer, but taking care of her was starting to become an unintended pleasant side effect of something this awful.

"That was foolish of me," she mumbled, as she checked and re-checked that the rations were secure in Moon's packs. "I should have made a better assessment of my health before venturing out again." QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 62 YOUR HP: 30

He'd been stung by bees so much at this point, he was sure he was getting an immunity to them. Step One Quote: Rolling a 3: You accidentally ride into a bees nest. BEEEEES.

Through her self-pity, she failed to notice that Robert's trajectory led him directly into bees. In her haste to catch up to him and aid him as best she could, she tripped over a protruding root and went tumbling down the embankment.

She didn't make it in time to prevent him from being stung, and lost some of their food in the process. Her eyes remained firmly directed towards the ground in shame for a while.

In fairness, she had not presented the best case for her adventuring skills. Neither had he, really, but his ability was not up for protest. Robert was brave and strong, and he was truly made to be a knight. It was permissible for him to slip up every now and then. So Mildred had essentially proved him right, yet he was here with her again. In spite of their failure, he had not given up and gone alone. With a sheepish smile, she leaned towards him to press another carved charm into his palm. There were only two figures this time, but as simplistic as it was, the subjects might have been easy to guess. QUEST STATUS Food remaining: 25 YOUR HP: 30

He, however, thought there absolutely was room to question his adventuring skills. But then, he was questioning everything lately, and this would be no different.
He had just gotten on his horse when she offered him the token, and he brought it to his face to look at it in detail. It took a moment for him to realize what he was looking at was indicative of the two of them, but when he did, it blossomed a heavy, satisfied flush across his cheeks. He tucked it gently under his armor, safe in the pockets of his tunic breastpocket, where it would remain near his heart.
There was no time to think too deeply on her gift, but he allowed himself to believe that he had won her favor. Even if it was just a small step, it was better than nothing. He prepared for a million small steps, each of them just as triumphant as the last.
