[There's a laughter creeping to his tone as he lets go of the man's collar, giving the fabric a quick brush before he steps past him. And just like that, Richard withdraws from the moment. He sees the bait and the hand that is offering it, but circles around it rather than accept it.] We are losing the light fast. I'd suggest we'd make haste towards the caves if we wish to make it back before the break of the new day.
