A little of both.

A few moments pass as you look for some sign as to which way she went when suddenly another set of words of a spell flow into your mind. You repeat them and feel somehow that a tenth of your magical reserve of energy is spent as the magic takes effect. A glow begins to flow around the camp as all of her footprints are highlighted. They exit the camp following the stream to the right, down river. “Cool.” The spell also seems to highlight some little plants and berries as well as if nature is sort of talking to you. You use it to collect several medical herbs, nutritious potato like tubers, and even a small clutch of psychedelic herbs for possible recreational use. “Not really into ****, but who knows, the magic seems to think they’re harmless. Maybe they are worth money.”

You spend the first few hours of the trip using the sword to create a nice strong staff in case you need to bop something or need a good strong pole for vaulting or ... well who knows you are sure a strong stick is very useful, at least part of you sort of insists it. Right about then a pair of spells reveal themselves, the first empowers your new walking stick into a formidable melee weapon, the second turns it into a snake, either small sneaky and poisonous or larger and strong, either you can sort of see through its eyes and control it mentally, or just give it commands as direct control seems to occupy most of your concentration.

You continue to head along the stream till it gets dark. When you finally decide to stop you can’t resist climbing up a tree, which really makes you smile, and reveals yet another spell, which you cast. It uses a tenth of your magic like the other spell did and warps the tree and branches to create a hidden shelter. Once inside it even feels like air conditioning. Plus you can tell there is more to the spell and with a little more magic used and a longer casting, you can add lots of furnishings and more rooms. All of it will vanish if you exit for longer than an hour. You end up in a little bedroom with a small table with a lamp on it and a shuttered window. You strip to your undies and crawl under the covers. Moments later you are out like a light.
