Sneaky Snake.

After loosing Oruvand it didn't take long before Jack came up to an Inn. Seeing that he needed a break and poor LeLu was out of it and it was now nighttime, he decided to crash there for the night and take off in the morning. He put LeLu down and took out some coins from his backpack and put on his hooded cloak to cover his ears and hide his face. Then he pulled out a large sack and put the out cold LeLu in it like a sack of flour and slung her over his shoulder. Then he opened the Inn door and asked for a room with a large bed. After he paid the Madam he headed upstairs to his room and opened his room on the second floor. He checked it out and saw his escape route via the window if needed then locked the door as he put LeLu down on the bed and pulled her out of the sack to lay her on her back to sleep. He set a chair behind the door to make it hard to break in and give away any thieves or sneaky people. He then repacked his backpack and ate a quick snack before he crashed.

While jogging, he came across a part of the forest he was familiar with. He hunted actual animals rather than criminals in this forest, and while he hadn't wasted time trying to remember each er and every square foot of it, there where parts he knew particularly well. As stated, this was one of those parts.

After a brief scan of the treeline, Oru noticed that a single tree had a small symbol on it. Upon closer inspection, he noticed a triangle bored into the bark. He smiled, realizing he had put it there.

It was supposed to be the roof of a building. West to North West from here stood an Inn, one he hadn't seen before, that was, until he did. If he was on a hunt and needed a pit stop, the Inn was where he intended to go. The half-elf couldn't run forever, eventually he would have to stop, and it was likely that he would do so at the Inn once he saw it. It was truly a gamble, but one he felt was in his favor.

Make it to the Inn before next dawn, perhaps get a few hours of shut-eye, and then intercept the target. He'd figure out what exactly 'intercept' meant when the time came.

At this point Jack and LeLu were sound asleep but still ready to fight the moment the door opened.
