Leothe, Annetta, Trevor and Anthony enjoy an uneventful cart ride from the oasis to the naga city, their escort being largely quiet for the duration of the trip. If questioned, they'll simply say that they're being taken to their friends. The trip takes quite a while, and they have to stop to make camp at one point. Come morning, they're off again. Around Ten O'Clock in the morning, they can see the settlement, it's markets currently shaded and doing brisk business while they approach.
Dan, Myrnal, Neb and Paul are treated to some news in the morning; Firstly, their friends who could be retrieved will arrive shortly, within the hour. Secondly, their friends who could not be retrieved, the King of Doma and the orc Kobakk are not dead. They are on their way back to Doma capital, for reasons that are unknown to the Naga. They entered the Shumans this morning, and the King is taking advantage of good relations he has with some of the natives there to speed his way home.
An hour passes, and those who were lost in the desert arrive at "Big Rock." Trevor climbs out, and streatches a bit after the long ride. He is still disguised to look very much like a relative of Dan's. Anthony follows suit.
"About damn time we got out again! I've gone all stiff, sitting on a wooden bench for two days!"
(Myrnal, Dan and Neb can be where ever, greeting their comrades, off having tea, etc. Leothe, Annetta, Trevor and Anthony are climbing out of their cart. Paul is sleeping in.)
