[html]Cai looked away before smiling a little at his brothers insistence. The hunger must not have been much of an issue, or the stomachache was worse then Drakien was letting on, for there were scarce few reasons he would pass up a free meal. The answer to that problem was to simply cook the fish in the fire at the next camp, and if the booze-hound hadn't eaten yet, the smell would entice him. Of course, Cai still had to go catch some fish for that to be a possibility. If he ran to the river, he could probably get enough herring to fill one of the pouches on the pack horse and run it back before camp could be broken down by a single hung over Gypsy, even if it was a scant camp. Even if Drakien finished putting everything away a few minutes before Cai got back, he would probably wait and the headache subside a bit and let his brother catch up before traveling.
Cai actually did smile before replying to the chide, Я не ел лошадей. Но я хочу, что рыба в любом случае, так что я должен вернуться в течение нескольких минут. With that, all there was left to do was grab the pouch off the large placid grey and get a move on. The only problem was the pack horse and its companion were conspicuous in their absence. They had probably wandered off to a slightly better grazing field, again. That meant now there were two problems that a sober wolf was better for, but the horses at least could still be managed by Drakien so long as nothing went terribly wrong. Cai simply sighed and grabbed a spare pouch from the campsite, it wouldn't hold as much but it would have to do.
