Jon ate silently with his boys. The fire was small tonight, but it did the job. On the hunting trip, Jon had caught 7 squirrels, and tommy had caught 3. The rest of the boys didn't catch any.
Dany had gone out to pick some berries and she came back with her shirt filled with all kinds of fruits she had found. The stains around her mouth indicated that she had already tried some.
They ate in silence, each of them thinking of their own things.
"Jon," Tommy began, looking up from his food.
"Yes?"
"When I was hunting over by that Rostum tribe, I saw a boy walking with a girl."
The group was silent, waiting for him to continue, but when he didn't, Jon spoke up. "Yes? What's so special about that? the Rostums mate too." a few of the boys laughed, Dany scowled.
"She- she had numbers." Tommy stuttered.
"Are you sure? The girl had numbers? " one of the boys asked.
"Yes I'm positive. And after I had caught a few squirrels, I checked back and saw that the whole tribe was talking to her. They were asking her questions and touching her number and-"
"Did you hear anything that she said?" Jon interrupted.
"I was kind of far away. It was all muffled. Sorry Jon."
"No that's okay." Jon said, setting his food down.
"Well what do we do?" Dany asked, also setting her food down. Soon the whole group had put their food down and were staring at Jon, waiting for his decision.
"I guess we'll give our nameless friend a visit."
