"Are you sure you don't want a bigger entourage, Your Highness?" Chilchuck's pack, large as it was on his back, felt practically feather-light compared to what he was used to. They weren't far from the excavation camp, after all. And the day's travel expedition was meant to be just a one-day affair. Still, it was the furthest they'd embarked into new territory.
They had been exploring for an hour and Chilchuck felt a vague unease. The further they went, the more the mist seemed to encroach. He had been keeping track of what he could see 10 feet out and the difference was subtle but entirely noticeable to him. When they had surveyed the territory from up high on the hill that looked over the valley, there was no indication of mist. Just trees that extended into the horizon.
