The journey continued without significant incidents, despite the challenges faced during a fifteen-mile ride on horseback through rugged terrain at night. The travel was characterized by the absence of roads and the company of armed men dressed in kilts. Additionally, there was the challenge of sharing a horse with an injured companion, which adds to the difficulty of the trip.

However, the narrator found the experience to be relatively uneventful, especially since they were fortunate not to encounter any highway robbers or wild animals, and the weather remained dry. These circumstances seemed mundane compared to the heightened experiences they had grown accustomed to, leading to a sense of dullness during this adventure.
