Makoru's eyes suddenly fluttered open as Jack prepared to lead the group towards the ruined settlement, bringing his head up and looking around as he leaned back on his elbows for support.

"Jack? Are we there?" he asked, sitting up and looking to Jack, somewhat frustrated he had not been awoken the minute they reached Raven's Shade.

"Yes, but you're not going. Stay put, we'll be back in just a moment," Jack promised, flicking his wrist and sending another throwing knife into his free hand.

"You're not seriously going to walk into that death trap without me. I'm going with you," Makoru said as he shifted out of Torene's embrace, careful not to wake her.

"No, you're not. Don't be stupid, Mak, you can barely walk. Stay put," Jack ordered, leaping off the carriage before Mak could argue and gathering the group together, already walking towards the ruined town as Makoru attempted to come up with a good protest. When he realized Jack was out of earshot, Makoru let out a sigh and shifted back to his spot next to Torene, not at all pleased at being dismissed so easily. He held her tight and attempted to escape back to the dreamless sleep he had been enjoying moments before.
