After they had bound their ship to a nearby tree and carried all essential equipment out of it, they all felt exhausted and determined to find a place to spend their very first night on.

The information that they would have to make a short walk to their sleeping accommodation made the whole party to moan in choir. As a self-confident man, Mashes Fitzgerald decided to ignore their silly behavior and took the lead towards the mountain.
