"They sleep as they should, at peace despite what befell them. It was... the least I could do."

Dawnsfire was weary enough that she let Simple carry her, too exhausted to care who might see her in this moment of physical weakness. A small part of her was glad that she'd been able to coax her people's spirits to leave the earthly plane and move on as they were meant to but another part was saddened and would remain so for a while. Overlaying both emotions though was exhaustion, even though she hadn't moved while she'd guided her people she had still expended a large amount of energy.

"Let Silverfox sleep. When Jarek and his men move .... if they move they will tell us and we will go. She needs her rest."

The young shaman didn't think Simple was lying about moving on but what was the cause? She and Silverfox had only just arrived there, surely they hadn't been there for long so why move now? Unless those driven out had sought aid from their brethren and Jarek wished to avoid confrontation at this time.... that would make sense. Simple had told Jarek the night before that no one had been killed in the taking of this village so it was entirely possible that those driven out were returning to reclaim their homes. As Simple carried her Dawnsfire's eyes drifted closed, it took too much effort to keep them open and the village was within sight, she'd be able to rest soon.
