Mason looked over the treasure hoarde his group uncovered after slaying the dragon, "Gods, how are we gonna get this back to sell it?"
"Never fear, mate," Nestor said, throwing an arm over his companion's shoulder, "we'll load you up real good. Anythin' that don't fit on you we might haul out of here and have 'Ol Bess carry. Looks awful heavy though. Don't know if me old knees can take it. Best you carry it out."
Mason scowled at his companions grin.
