Ansyl: I was alone when I saw him, and so was he. I recognized him from my time back in the Cambremon hub, so I decided to save him. Should I have let him die in the snow?

Achemi: That's not... *sighs* Fine. In any case, Marek confirmed his identity, he's Ren's old Starschin. Apparently he was the victim of some kind of power play by the head of the guards. *scoffs* Exactly the kind of mess I wanted to leave behind.

Achemi: *pause* I'm worried for Marek. He tells me everything's fine, but I think he's just playing tough. I told him to keep Bruk's presence here secret. Who knows how the Cambremons would react.

Ansyl: *nods* That's good thinking. We can't trust them.

Bruk and Yakon: *pleasant conversation*

Bruk: My joints are still a little sore, but that balm you put on me really helps! I'm amazed at how effective it is, I've had my share of wounds, and I've never healed so fast!

Yakon: Yes, it's quite a good balm. It's adapted from my mom's recipe, using what we can find here in the wastelands. She tells me the original one is even better.

Bruk: That must be something!

[ts2cambremon]

Bruk: *very faintly breathing*

Ansyl: He seems to be doing much better! Soon he'll be able to hunt with us.

Achemi: Yes... I had a little chat with him yesterday. And there's one thing that still puzzles me. Perhaps you could enlighten me?

Ansyl: *carefully* What is it?

Ansyl: Marek, listen to me, you can't go with them! They can't be trusted!

Achemi: I agree. I didn't like how that fighting went down. Those Cambremon have about the same level of respect for the lives of their men than they have for military strategy... Doesn't bode well for the rest of their family.

Ansyl: Their whole family's rotten! My old husband was just like them. Cruelty runs in their blood! You need to stay!

Marek: Stay?! And what, watch you and my brother make more children? I'd rather take on a whole nest of spiders! My visions are clear, the Cambremon hub is where I'll find my wife!

Ansyl: You're only saying that because-!

Achemi: Ansyl... Leave it. Marek, it's your life, we can't stop you. You know if there's any hint of trouble, we'll come to get you, with The Beast in tow. They hurt my boy, I'll lay waste to their hub.

Marek: *sighs* They won't mom. I would have seen it.

[ts2cambremon]

Marek: *furious* A wife or no deal! I'm tired of being without a woman! This one here *gestures to Ansyl* strolls into our camp, I patch up her wounds, but she chooses to mate with my brother! Now I have to watch them found a family together, I have to hunt meat to feed their children! What options do I have? I want my own offspring!

Achemi: Marek, we heard you, enough!

Ansyl: Yes, he does go on and on about it. It would be a big help if you could find a wife for him in your hub. *muttering* And take him off our hands...
