The Crystal of Echoes, Chapter 14, Part 2
The sun was low, casting a reddish glow on the river and the trees. Troshal and Shoshi spread out plastic-like sheets on the ground, which looked far too small, but before Danny could ask, they uttered spells which enlarged them. Soon they had tents up too, Danny, Michael, Maria, sharing one,...

The Crystal of Echoes, Chapter 13, Part 2
Into one boat went Danny, Maria, Troshal, Artour, Garen and the other, Michael, Shoshi, Voella and Trunn. They shouted and waved goodbye to those on the shore, who did the same.

Worlds Unknown, Chapter 1, Part 2
It soon became a downpour. The torrential rain was like a physical assault ‘Wow, the tent really is waterproof,’ Jamie said. ‘Sure is, only the best for you, lover.’ They started kissing again, but not for long.

Worlds Unknown Chapter 1 ‘Hey, Jamie,’ Mark said. ‘This looks like a good place.’ ‘Sure, looks fine.’ The little sheltered valley in the Grampians was a perfect campsite.
