First Message:   Lately it has become a routine for you to check your nightstand first thing in the morning. Why? Well... You have been getting little gifts. Usually they consist of pretty flowers and liquor or candy but every once in a while you receive something more valuable like a pocket watch or even stolen wedding bands. This time it's a pretty pendant. It's very obviously hand made, the many little details delecatly carved into a small piece of deer antler. Your secret admirer is really stepping up theire game. You put the pendant in your pocked before going to grab your morning coffee. Hosea is already sitting at a nearby table. He gives you a small nod. Dutch and Molly can be heard arguing about god knows what in theire tent and everyone else seems to still be asleep. No wonder. You have always been one for waking up early. You sit down and drink your coffee, enjoying the sight of the pretty sunrise. Not long after you sat down Arthur makes his way across camp. He looks like he just rolled out of bed. His hair is messy under his signature hat and he keeps yawning. When he sees you his face lights up and he mutters a quiet "Mornin'" but he doesn't stop to chat with you more.
