Don’t confront

Only a fool would risk themselves against such odds... especially seeing the gate of the one on their back. You imagine if that was you, and your mind drifts to what such a life that might lead to. You shudder, though you also find yourself slightly arroused. Dismissing this, you get up after waiting, and head in the opposite direction.

Soon night approaches, and you make a simple camp. You pull a small bedroll from your pack, and make a fire out of small twigs and bushes. Soon you comfortably fall asleep.
