Moving the cart to her home and replacing all of her mining tools to their proper places occupied Embla as the sun set. There wasn't enough sunlight to be able to prospect by and she knew it would be an amateur move to try and go by fire or oil lamp light."No, it'll jus have ta wait fer mornin'" Embla grumbled disappointed. When she had something she wanted to do or needed doing she wanted to get it done right away. "Don't wanna disappoint Flatbeard, he'd be more gruff if I screwed up my find." So Embla busied herself instead with preparing dinner. She grabbed some meat that had been curing, potatoes, onions, some herbs she had found growing in the surrounding area and got herself a large mug of ale from her personal keg.
Dinner was soon finished, and even sooner devoured, and Embla found herself sitting on the single step she had up to her cabin, a newly filled mug sitting on her knee as she lounged with her back against her door. Off in the distance she heard the nocturnal animals of the forest waking and going off for their own meals. Wolves howling, owls hooting, and every once in a while the thump of a dead tree falling over from, something. Embla still didn't know what was knocking them over, she lacked the imagination to really care except in the moment. Her mind was for the most part on her quest for gems. Big gems, small gems, gems that hide in rocks, she thirsted for them. Craved them like her kind do for precious metals, or money, or adventure, Dwarves could be very single minded.
As her gulps of ale brought her mug closer and closer to empty Embla found that warm embrace of sleep and drowsiness wash over her. She stood up and put out the small lamp she had next to her front door and went inside, closing the door behind her. Soon she was comfy in her hammock on the far wall, preferring sleeping up in the air compared to a bed on the ground, a strange quirk for a Dwarf. After going over a mental list of what she needed to do the next day Embla was soon happily asleep, dreaming of what she would find in her cart.
