Rituals pt. 1

“Ren John, try and keep up.”  Alana was waiving at me, Doug by her side. 
We had been traveling for only a day, but it felt much longer.  My muscles ached and my back was stiff. 

Traveling with Kay, Doug and Nora had been brisk, but not like this.  Alana seemed to never run out of energy, and Doug didn’t seem fazed by the pace at all.  I suddenly felt very unsure about my role in this quest.

“We should start thinking about finding shelter soon.” Doug glanced up at the sky.  “The sun is about to set, and who knows what’s lurking around here.”

I just nodded, willing myself to move just one step forward
