Of Using Amulets, Northern Gaia At Last, and Almost There
Rose: Using Amulets
Trying to listen to the conversation that Shal was having with Wolf along with what Lord Avondale was telling her, Rose sat there for a moment, just btrying to sort it out in her head. Taking a breath, she spoke to Shal and Wolf first.
"Shal, Lord Avondale wants you to use your amulet."
Not sure she would follow, Rose had to just sit back and wait.

Northern Gaia at Last
Kyrre and Sam leapt off the raft that they had taken to traverse the short distance between Southern Gaia and Northern Gaia, which had taken all of six hours. Shaking off the water, Kyrre pulled the raft to shore while Sam gathered the supplies off the raft and pulled them off the beach, up onto the shore where plantlife began to grow. Sitting down in the middle of a mossy patch, Sam pulled out some food. A moment later, Kyrre joined him. It was the first time they had rested in three days.
They didn't speak, just ate dried meat and berries for a short while.
The sun was getting low in the sky, so both Sam and Kyrre worked on making a small fire. They cleared a small bit of the moss away, and gathered a few bush branches from nearby. Then Kyrre snapped his fingers over the twigs, and sparked a low fire. Any more than that, and the fire would burn too quickly, and not keep them warm all night.
By the time the sun had completely set, Kyrre and Sam were dozing by a sleepy fire, 100 paces back from the small sea, on the southern coast of Northern Gaia.

Taran: Almost There
Taran woke slowly, the remnants of his dreams still vivid in his head. A few hours had passed, and they should be- by his calculations- close to their destination.
Getting up, he quickly combed his hair, straightened his clothes, and looked at himself in the mirror. He still looked too young for white hair, and he frowned. People who dismissed him as old at first usually noticed his smooth skin and complexion fairly shortly. So far, everything had been so crazy, that no one had had time to question it. He hated to think what might happen if too many people started asking questions. He changed clothes quickly, as some of his things had been loaded for the previous journey.
Heading up out of the crew cabin, Taran called out to n** and Flan, "Hey." A moment later, he climbed up the 5 steps to the bridge. "How're we doing? Should be almost there by now...."

People are pricks dude. No one is going to notice your skin if your hair is white enough.
