Gabriele finds the trail again and follows it for a bit. It is over a week old and the traces are faint. She finds where the quarry has stopped to relieve themselves, and where they stopped to forage. The trail is meandering for a while, and then heads southwest. Gabriele and Severing spend a lot of time combing for tracks, and soon realize that the sun is going down over the mountains soon. They can keep searching in the dark, or head back to the caravanserai before sunset.
