Nix smiled in his sleep, the soft caress of a hand on his cheek doing nothing to wake him up.

"Hmm?" Nix opened one eye, a fairly strange event since he shouldn't have eyelids while in bone form. "Problem?"
Shae's red hair fell against his face; the open tent flap let in just enough light for Nix to see that they were alone. Fey, Pon, and Duran had taken up the other cots, but they must have left during the early morning. "Can't you hear everyone talking? The entire camp woke up in human form."
Nix turned on one side and propped his head up on one elbow. "You doing okay?"
"I'm fine; guess we won't try Trinity flames again for a while."
Nix smiled slightly and nodded in agreement. "Leave the crazy explosive stuff to me."
"Remember the message yesterday? About Inferno being awarded the [Undead] form?"
Throttled back a bit from the Bone Fortress, everyone needs down time. Thanks for reading.
