[At this point Mitsuhide feels more physically weary than ever. It's a simple fact that after entering the caverns and finding water, the both of them are going to have to find a safe, defendable place to sleep in. Exploration and questions will have to wait for quite some time yet, it seems.]
[Stepping over a small crack in the ground, Mitsuhide sighs deeply before looking over at Motochika once more.]
