The Collapse

[Nyasi]

"I'll take first watch," Dusk muttered immediately. He walked over toward a tree, raking off thee bark with his antlers. He then walked over to Dawn, the two eating grass.

"Thank you, Dusk," Cheng said. A short time later, the rice was ready. Cheng placed it into a bowl and, with the aid of chopsticks, began to eat. Right now, the only thing on his mind was Mei. Before the Kremlings came along, they had been trying for a cub, something both truly wanted.

[Nyasi]

Dusk nodded. "Oh, don't worry. Anything that attacks won't last five seconds if it decides to stay and fight." Dusk was ready to do what was nessessary, but he still had a soft heart for the native animals that deserved to be there.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng continued eating. After he was done, he decided to prepare his followers for the dangers that awaited them at Crocodile Isle. "As I said before, Crocodile Isle is a dangerous place. It's home to all of the Kremlings and many dangerous terrains," he said.

[Nyasi]

"I can take any terrain," boasted Dawn, looking determined to do so. Dusk simply nodded, his eyes hard as stone.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng stretched a little bit before speaking again. "Can you handle lava pools or swamp?" he asked.

[Nyasi]

"Why wouldn't I be able to?" Dawn shrugged. She had found that she could leap very long distances. Dusk glanced at her.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng nodded. "Take the lava. If you're not careful, you could fall in and have your flesh cooked from your bones, killing you instantly," he said.

[Nyasi]

"Instantly's better than slowl-" Dawn seemed to bite her tongue quite literally when she saw the look Dusk was giving her.
"And who's to blame if something happens to you?" he asked sharply. Dawn lowered her head.

[KingKovu44]

Cheng sighed. "If something happens to me, it is my fault. However, I don't plan on dying. Not before I can get back to my wife. With the Kremlings dealt with, Mei and I can have our cub and raise it in safety," he stated.
