Being woken up by two terrified screams is not exactly Malos' prefered way to wake up. He jolts upright, eyes scanning the dark for the threat-- ah. Looks like Zelos had a nightmare? Zelos... and Sheena, maybe? Malos stays where he is, because it looks like they have a handle on it, and Lloyd is rushing in away from camp to join their hug only a few seconds later, so, yeah. They've got it handled.
(Anna, meanwhile, sleeps like the dead.)
"Is everything alright?" comes Kratos' voice, and Malos looks up. Kratos looks like he just came into camp from the same direction Lloyd did. Huh. Alright.
"Yeah, I think," Malos answers, and notes that Kratos sounds more concerned than worried about danger or anything. (The ether around here is pretty normal, though.) "Looks like a nightmare."
"Ah," Kratos says, like that explains everything.
They have a slow kind of morning, and after that a pretty slow day, as well. They don't even travel the full day before they stop again, but they're getting low on supplies, and this is the last town they'll hit before they'll be in unpopulated neutral territory for a few days. Supplies will run out before they make it to Sylvarant. And you can't exactly go shopping at night, so. It's late afternoon when they stop, and Anna and Kratos elect to go into town alone, and Malos knows a subtle plea for privacy when he hears one, so he lets them.
Besides, he'd kind of wanted to talk to Zelos, anyway.
Getting Zelos alone isn't a problem-- he's already at the edge of camp, looking like he's deep in thought. Malos approaches carefully, doing his best not to sneak up on Zelos. The clouds in the sky are so thick it looks a lot later in the day than it actually is. The dark of the sky is kind of comforting, actually, a little exciting.
"Looks like it's gonna rain," Malos says, stopping beside Zelos.
WE DID IT!!
