<Back in the jungle, the expedition doing the last part on foot>
Shara: Shouldn't we be there soon?
Katharina: We will. From what Pesh said it can't be far anymore.
Shara: Thank FUCK. This jungle makes me nervous ... at least for the first part we were on a real road, but this? This is like the thing with Kshar all over again.
Katharina: ... I know what you mean.
Shara: I guess Pesh is gonna wait for us there?
Katharina; Yeah he went ahead again. It can't be more than half an hour now.

Shara: So ... how are you feelin' Kat? Excited?
Katharina: Oh yes! SO MUCH! If I'm correct these ruins have to be at least TWO CENTURIES old! I can't wait to see them with my own eyes ... touch them with my hands!
Shara: Hey, slow down there princes ... we're not there yet. And remember: it won't look good if you start humping some dusty old stones in front of everybody.
---
Katharina: Don't be solly. I will be VERY professional. I will carefully EXAMINE everything, CATALOGUE it and identify the most promising pieces. Then I'll wait until nightfall when everyone is asleep ... and THEN I'll start humping the stones.
Shara: Heh. I know at least one person who'd get jealous.
Katharina: I do not have the slightest clue who you're talking about.
---
Shara: REALLY. 'Cause he's right over there.
<She points to Book who is indeed right there>
Katharina: <facepalms> ... how long have ypu been there, Mister Book?
Book: Er ... not for very long Miss Grauch. And I have most certainly NOT heard you talk about stones - or ANYTHING up until now!
Katharina: ... thank you.
Shara: Wow, right answer Bookworm. You already trained him pretty well, Kat. Does he do tricks, too?

Back into the jungle! It's about time that they reach their destination, don't you think ... ?

Kat says it's not far anymore and I personally believe her.

    Well played… it seems like Kat finally starts forgetting a bit about all her fears. Which might be just the right time to make them get real … aw, I hope it doesn’t happen that fast. Shara doesn’t need another dead lover. Also, I like Peshagon.
