Setting A Base

After fighting the Demons who ambushed our squad, a majority of the Subjugation members were exhausted. Majority of them hadn't exerted themselves to that degree before, so it was only natural.

The adrenaline had already worn off, and many were beginning to feel the built-up tension surface. Since we had also been walking for quite some time, Daniel made the right call for us to rest.

A select few, including Daniel, went to pick up the Demon Cores that were scattered around. I would have liked to observe one and check the Skills hidden within the cores, but someone of my caliber wasn't given access to the glowing stones.

'There's no need to rush… there are many more at our final destination.' I reasoned.

As we took our break, water was distributed to everyone, but not food. Not only were we to manage our resources, but food would only weigh us down at this point. We would soon be on our way, anyway.
