Chapter 07 of Remarl Got Drunk

by Lyne

The next day, Kousei got up and staggered trying to collect his gothic sword. Astra went to him and promised he would kill him if he continued to be unreasonable like that. Kousei looked at him and said he wanted to see Dorian’s head severed from his body, and if he had to go through Astra then he would. Then after he completed that sentence he fell to his knees, still weak from the fight of the day before. Remarl had to convince Kousei, that there is nothing to gain from going now. They were still wounded, and Gaile as well as Amani had not been able to recuperate yet. Wil had gone to hunt again, and this time he came with two deer that he skinned and prepared for a meal. Wil was bewildered, as he said to them that he saw no bodies anywhere. He said that he had the feeling there was no one on the island but them now.

More fruit was ripe and fell off the tree they were sheltered under. When Kousei had succumbed to reason, he ate his fill and rested. Amani and Gaile were conscious by noon when they both ate and were satisfied. Wil had scouted a spring that ended in a small pool on the west side of the hill, and the women went there and refreshed themselves with a bath. Amani came back with berries and herbs and started working on a potion that she immediately drank. All of these things were done quietly, and robotically. As if they were all listless and unconscious.

As the afternoon turned into dusk, Amani made stew from the remnants of deer and roots that she had collected from the forest, she also added the rest of the potion to it. That evening, she asked everyone to eat their stew, even if they were not hungry. They sat around the fire that Wil had built and ate it without appetite. That night, they did not need a sentry. That night, they slept in peace.
