[ He nods at the offered information. He himself has been in stasis for some time during the past month, so there's much of Wyver he hasn't seen or had an opportunity to learn about, so her insight is appreciated.

I'd be surprised if we didn't find anything of interest in a giant skull. Very well. I'll anchor the ship to the shore, and if the area looks safe enough, we should stop here for the night.
[ Not that he's particularly tired, but they're ahead of schedule, and it looks like it might rain soon. The joys of the jungle. ]

A ranger, yes. [There is, at least in her mind, a clear difference] This isn't terrain I particularly favour, but I've tracked across swamp land before. Where jungles meet water, it tends to have a similar effect.
[ As the boat rows closer and closer still to shore, Vex rises to her feet with care, before pulling an arrow free of its quiver. This is then shown to Percival, should he look her way. ]
This can be easily replaced; shall I fire at your intended landing point, or would you prefer to test the mud directly once we're next to it?
