Chapitre 87: Backtracking, Part One

The Sun soon dawned, basking the wilderness in its warm glow. With the arrival of the day's first light, various chirping birds and woodland critters crawled out from their places of rest to hunt and forage.

Following their example, my companions stirred awake too. As expected, Mizuno was among the first, followed by Joseph and Barik soon after.

Mizuno stood up from her bedroll, revealing she'd taken off her black cloak sometime during the night. 

She wore a shadow gray, buttoned blouse fitted with a black leather harness, and her pants were tight around her slender form. On each side of her hips was a leather holster fitted to a belt. They were empty but obviously used for storing her two twin longswords.

She performed a series of morning stretches to rouse her muscles into action before throwing on the black cloak, once again concealing her body.

Meanwhile, Joseph ventured over to the only party member who hadn't yet started the day.
