<Tshaya> ((Yay))
<Lyla_Rastin> now which ways
<Tshaya> "So, we going or what?"
<Leaf> " leaf needs bandages... "
<Kun> "I think it would be... favorable if we leave soon."
<Lyla_Rastin> the viking is about to die, needs food badly
<Tshaya> ((hehe))
<Kun> "Can he walk?"
<Tshaya> "Looks like I can't help you, Leaf. Sorry."
<Tshaya> "You can walk, right?"
<Lyla_Rastin> i can help you leaf
<Hatch> Cayle casts his last cure on Leaf
<Tshaya> ((neet)) ;)
<Hatch> leaf gets 4 hp
<Kun> (i thought Cayle cast his last cure on one of the soldiers)
<Lyla_Rastin> if you promise me something i will heal you as well leaf
<Hatch> (He was planning to.)
<Leaf> " Leaf thinks so... "
* Tshaya fidgets.
<Lyla_Rastin> you must buy a tree and plant it during our journey
* Kun waits patiently
<Tshaya> ((LOL))
<Tshaya> ((It's NOT Arbor day!! ;-)))
<Leaf> " erm... leaf no need healink anymore though... "
<Lyla_Rastin> then you can walk and we can go
* Tshaya starts walking.
<Leaf> *Leaf bops Binky on the head, then gets in his saddle*
* Tshaya calls over her shoulder, "Be careful on that horse, Leaf."
<Leaf> *grumble*
<Lyla_Rastin> ((DO NOT MOCK THE DRUID))!
* Tshaya is walking east.
<Leaf> ( hehe )
<Tshaya> ((hehehe))
* Lyla_Rastin is walking behind tshaya looking at her oddly
* Tshaya is humming, and moving her feet oddly has she walks, occasionally 
spinning in place absently.
<Hatch> (hehe)
<Hatch> It's getting dark as evening draws near, you see the flickering 
light of a fire just off to the side of the road, not far ahead of you.
<Lyla_Rastin> *whispers* wait
<Leaf> *clop clop clop*
<Hatch> (put those coconuts away!)
<Kun> "hmm.  A camp fire."
* Tshaya stops. "What?"
<Lyla_Rastin> we do not know from which side that fire burns
<Leaf> " Leaf thinks hot food would be nice... "
* Tshaya looks at Lyla oddly. "What?"
<Lyla_Rastin> the fire may be from an enemy
<Tshaya> "Oh."
<Leaf> " then why not just say that? "
<Tshaya> "You could have just said that you know."
<Lyla_Rastin> we dont know if one of the men escaped
<Leaf> *shakes head*
<Kun> "I imagine he did"
<Leaf> " Vimon... "
* Tshaya squints at the fire.
<Lyla_Rastin> and one can communicate with course grunts but we choose not 
to 
<Leaf> " Vhats wrong vith gruntink? "
<Tshaya> "Oh, so you're a "we" now? You a nut or something?"
<Leaf> *looks baffled*
<Tshaya> ((How far away's that fire?))
<Hatch> (about a hundred yards)
<Leaf> ( I think buff meant women in general CC )
<Tshaya> ((thx))
<Tshaya> ((I said the same thing you did. ;-)))
<Tshaya> "Well, they have a fire. A fire sounds nice, w should make one 
too."
<Kun> "not this close"
<Leaf> " Lyla... vhere is your big cat? "
<Lyla_Rastin> nearby
* Tshaya snickers.
<Kun> "... Im going to go see whose fire burns over yonder"
* Kun walks toward the fire
<Tshaya> "Wait!"
<Leaf> " vaybe it could scout whoever is beink near dat fire? "
* Kun stops
<Lyla_Rastin> she walks where angels fear
* Tshaya runs up behind her.
<Kun> "Hmm?"
<Tshaya> "I want to go too."
* Kun laughs a little at Lyla's words
<Lyla_Rastin> walks into the woods
<Kun> "..."
<Kun> "Then lets go"
<Leaf> " leaf *is* hungery... " *starts towards the fire *
* Tshaya goes.
* Kun walks toward the fire
<Hatch> As you begin to close, you can see three or maybe four around the 
fire. A rather large person is leaning against a tree, obviously watching up 
and down the road.
<Kun> (do they notice us?)
<Hatch> (Doesn't seem so yet)
<Kun> (hmmmm)
<Leaf> " leaf kill them ja? "
* Kun calls out to the people "HAIL!"
* Tshaya waves.
<Leaf> *Leaf groans and smacks his forehead*
<Leaf> " vimen... "
<Hatch> The large person stands up straight and looks down at you, points, 
and one of the others turns to look at you all for a moment, then turns back 
to the fire.
* Tshaya whispers to Leaf. "We don't kill everything that moves."
<Tshaya> "Uh, hi over there."
<Tshaya> "Just wanted to let you know we're here so you don't get all jumpy 
or anything..."
<Leaf> * dey are obiously minions of darkness! see how zey only set camp 
vhen de sun falls? "
* Tshaya rolls her eyes at Leaf.
<Hatch> The large one walks towards you a few yards. "Eve, travellers."
<Kun> "Good sirs!  May we join you at your camp?"
<Hatch> He turns and looks back at the fire again, and makes several 
gestures.
<Kun> (what kinda gestures)
<Tshaya> ((Whatch it, they're gonna steal second!))
<Hatch> (middle finger, hand pumping up and down rapidly..)
<Hatch> ^_^
<Kun> (oO)
<Tshaya> ((LOL))
<Kun> (if they're making rude gestures at me... you can tell me)
<Hatch> (lol no he's facing the other way, you can't really see)
* Kun walks up toward the camp
* Tshaya looks around and whispers, "Where's Lyla?"
<Leaf> " she vent into ze voods "
<Hatch> The large man watches you warily
* Tshaya shrugs and follows Kun.
<Kun> "May we share your fire?"
<Leaf> *urges Binky forward*
<Leaf> *clopity-clop clopity-clop*
<Hatch> "Yes, you may share the fire."
* Tshaya grins at him. "Thanks!"
<Hatch> In the small camp you see a hulking black man in heavy plate armor 
who was off leaning against the tree, he looks like he must be at least 6'4" 
and over 300 pounds, long dark hair goes past his shoulders and hangs over 
his eyes. 
<Hatch> A small, slight and unassuming raven-haired girl with pale skin and 
blue cloak over dull steel plate mail sits with her head resting on the 
shoulder of a rail thin and bright eyed man, cheeks hollowed and sallow, 
this tall man's eyes are locked in the light of the fire. 
<Hatch> A small and rather young looking blond girl sitting only a few feet 
from the fire moves her fingers in the air around it, the flames following 
her gestures to lick briefly around several steaming iron pots laid out 
along the edge of the fire.
<Leaf> " Vould you be havink an extra food? "
<Hatch> (that came ok?)
<Tshaya> *still stretching* "I'm gonna be a little sore tomorrow, I bet."
<Tshaya> ((fine. ;-)))
* Kun looks around slightly
<Kun> "Where is the druid"
<Kun> (spoken as a statement, not a question)
* Tshaya sits up. "Hmmm."
<Tshaya> "She's probably out with that cat somewhere."
<Kun> "hmm"
* Tshaya looks a little uncomfortable.
<Kun> addressing the large black man,"May I be so bold as to enquire your 
destination?"
* Tshaya looks at him. "East. THat's all I know."
* Tshaya shrugs.
<Tshaya> ((oops, ignore that))
<Hatch> He eyes you carefully. "We're heading through the town of Denbar, on 
our way to Sarna."
<Tshaya> ((Thought the big guy was asking))
<Kun> (no kidding Claire ;)
<Leaf> " Any spare vood? "
<Kun> glancing at Tshaya "Did we just come from Denbar?  My mind escapes me 
at the moment"
<Tshaya> "Sarna! I live near there!"
<Tshaya> "Yeah, I think that was Denbar."
<Hatch> The blond girl looks at Leaf. "Shhh, I'm cooking" she wiggles her 
fingers and the fire flares
* Kun sits silently in thought for a moment
<Leaf> " food! " *leaps out of the saddle and lands with a thump next to the 
blonde girl*
* Tshaya stands and walks over to the blond girl, then squats next to her 
and watches the fire.
* Lyla_Rastin walks from the woods
<Hatch> The girl's hands move quickly, the fire pulling out to match the 
movements of her fingers
<Tshaya> "That's neat."
* Lyla_Rastin approaches the thin man but not really close
<Tshaya> ((Hatch, can I tell if she's casting a spell? :-)))
<Kun> addressing the large black man,"Is there something following you?"
<Hatch> (Can't tell for sure Clare0
<Tshaya> ((I have the SPellcraft prof. ;-)))
<Hatch> He looks around "Not that I've seen..." he looks down at you 
"....why?"
<Hatch> (roll it?)
* Kun taps chin not once, not twice, but thrice
<Tshaya> ((rolled 11))
<Tshaya> ((It's INT -2, INT is 16))
<Lyla_Rastin> *points* at the thin man, are you a worshipper?
<Leaf> *walks up to the Large man in plate and strikes a conversation*
<Hatch> (okay. it looks like she's sustaining an effect fire spell)
<Tshaya> ((Can I identify it specifically?))
<Hatch> The thin man nods slightly, careful to not disturb the girl resting 
against him.
<Tshaya> ((I get +3 to my roll if it's an invocation/evocation))
<Hatch> The large man blinks repeatedly
<Hatch> (okay Claire)
<Lyla_Rastin> *whispers* may i inquire as to that girls name?
<Hatch> thin man "which girl?"
<Hatch> Large man backs away slowly from Leaf, shaking his head, and takes 
his position back by the tree.
<Tshaya> ((Poor Leaf)) ;-)
<Hatch> The large man continues shaking his head, now obviously focusing on 
the road and trees surrounding the camp
<Hatch> The large man whispers something to Leaf
* Tshaya stands again, and walks over to the large man.
* Tshaya stands on her tiptoes and whispers into his shoulder, "Are you 
waiting for someone?"
<Hatch> He shakes his head. "I have first watch tonight."
<Tshaya> "Oh. Want some company? I'm not tired, and 4 eyes are better then 
2, right?"
<Hatch> "Alright, if you wish." He sticks out his hand "I am Adam of Lyons."
<Leaf> *Nudges the man with his elbow and waggles his eyebrows expresively*
<Leaf> " Vhat did I tell you eh? "
* Tshaya takes his hand and shakes it. "I'm Tshaya Romanyi. Nice to meet 
you."
<Hatch> He shakes his head at Leaf
* Tshaya turns and glares at Leaf.
<Lyla_Rastin> the girl leaning on you
<Leaf> " You two have fun "
<Kun> to no one in particular "The fire is a beacon" 
<Hatch> The thin man whispers "Her name is Sarah"
* Tshaya aims a kick at the back of Leaf's knee.
<Lyla_Rastin> Tshaya, what was the names of the girls we were looking for?
* Tshaya thinks a moment, then pulls the finder thingy out of her shirt, 
looking at it.
<Tshaya> ((Is it pointing at either of them?))
<Kun> "Cassandra and Kali"
<Hatch> (the closest it points to is the blond who is controlling the fire, 
but it's not directly at her)
<Hatch> (*EEEEEP!* half right Pix ^_^)
<Tshaya> "It's not them. THey're too old anyways."
<Leaf> *turns to Tshaya* " Yes, are you vantink somethink? "
<Kun> "..."
* Tshaya put the finder thingy back down her shirt.
<Kun> "Cassandra and Zara"
<Lyla_Rastin> lots of strange things happen in th eworld, i knew a witch 
that was 104 years old but looked like a 4 year old
<Hatch> (*Dingdingding*)
* Tshaya shrugs. "No Leaf. Just wanted to kick you."
* Tshaya turns to Adam. "Are you adventuring?"
<Lyla_Rastin> are we stalled here for the night?
<Kun> (it seems that way)
<Hatch> he nods slowly "You may say. We're looking for a relic said to be 
lost near Sarna."
* Tshaya furrows her brow. "I know the area pretty well. What kind of relic 
is it?"
<Hatch> he shrugs "I don't really know"
<Kun> "Why are you looking for it"
* Lyla_Rastin elbows tshaya softly
* Tshaya giggles. "Sounds like my adventure."
<Kun> (a statement, not a question!)
<Tshaya> "Ow. What?"
<Lyla_Rastin> *whispers* you just met these people, you dont know them from 
the demigod of tarsus but you wish to help them with there possible 
nefarious schemse?
* Tshaya shrugs.
<Hatch> "We're looking for it.. because.. Sarah wanted it..."
<Kun> "Are you a hireling?"
<Hatch> "She's my friend."
<Kun> "hmm."
<Tshaya> *back to Lyla, whispering* "THey were nice enough to share their 
fire without knowing us, weren't they?"
<Lyla_Rastin> better to stab you while you sleep
<Lyla_Rastin> then to face you in battle
<Tshaya> "I don't think they're any more likely to do it then you are."
<Lyla_Rastin> then you are a poor judge of char
<Leaf> *muches on food*
* Tshaya shrugs. "I'm hanging around with you, aren't I?"
* Lyla_Rastin points
<Lyla_Rastin> See that one he wears the symbol of Kossuth, a chaotic god, 
did you know that?
* Kun 's ears perk slightly
<Tshaya> "What's wrong with that?"
<Kun> "What type of chaos god... Lyla"
<Lyla_Rastin> how many travelers are sacrificed to lawful gods?
<Lyla_Rastin> i only know little of Kossuth
<Kun> "What do you know.
<Kun> "
* Kun turns slightly to Lyla
<Kun> "Hmm Lyla?"
<Lyla_Rastin> he is a true neutral god with chatoic tendencys, an affilation 
with fire, and buring
<Leaf> *Leaf examines the blonde*
<Lyla_Rastin> he is an elemenal god, a destructive god a feared god
* Kun stands
<Hatch> The blond girl looks up, and flicks her fingers toward Leaf. The 
fire jumps and flares for a brief moment in his direction.
<Lyla_Rastin> thus young tshaya wants to adventure with a elemental 
desctructive fire god worshiper
* Kun bows slightly to all at the camp
<Leaf> " How is it zat you do zat? "
<Hatch> the blond whispers "magic"
<Kun> "Thank you for having u-.... me, but i must be leaving now.  Thank 
you"
* Kun walks away
<Tshaya> "I don't make snap judgements about people for what they're 
wearing. I guess I', nuts that way."
<Leaf> *laughs*
<Lyla_Rastin> I make no snap judgment, but i also dont ingore facts, you 
woke very annoyed today with me
<Lyla_Rastin> ((seriously))
* Kun walks away further down the road... in the direction we were going
<Hatch> The thin man and the girl leaning on him lay down and draw a blanket 
over themselves, already having seemed asleep as they sat. The blond 
wriggles her fingers to the ground and the fire shrinks slightly, then she 
lays back on the dirt, her cloak pulled around her.
<Leaf> " But zats impossible! vimen can't do magic! "
<Leaf> *beams a smile at the blonde*
* Tshaya turns to Leaf. "Remember what happened ast time oyu said that?"
<Hatch> The blond blinks and snaps her hand up. The fire roars into the sky 
for the barest moment.
<Leaf> *unfazed* " zat must have been zee beans I had "
* Tshaya goes up to Adam again. "I'll be back in a little but."
<Hatch> She mumbles something in a language you don't understand, and covers 
her eyes with her cloak.
<Kun> (heehee)
* Tshaya hurries to follow Kun, calling after her.
* Kun has set up camp by herself about 250 feet away
* Tshaya gets to her camp. "Hey. Why'd you leave?"
<Kun> (camp meaning, she put her stuff down)
<Kun> "I felt... uncomfortable"
<Tshaya> "Was it because of what Lyla said?"
<Kun> "I wouldnt say it was her words that caused me to leave"
* Tshaya looks lost for a minute. "Oh, okay."
<Kun> "Im sleeping here.  Do what you like."
<Tshaya> "Well, I told Adam I'd help him with first watch, so I need to go 
back. Uh, have fun."
* Tshaya looks at her for a bit, and then turns, running back to the other 
camp.
<Leaf> *Hunkers down and drifts to sleep*
* Tshaya gets back to Adam. "Sorry. I'll keep you company for the first 
watch."
<Hatch> Adam is sitting down with his back to a tree, facing east along the 
road. He smiles slightly.
* Tshaya leans against the same tree, facing rather westerly.
<Tshaya> ((hehehe))
<Tshaya> *to adam, rather quietly* "How long have you all been adventuring 
together?"
* Kun sleeps
<Hatch> He whispers "I, with Sarah and Leahanne for three years."
<Tshaya> "Wow."
<Tshaya> "I've known these guys for about 24 hours now."
<Kun> (heehee)
<Hatch> He smiles and chuckles "You seem to have hit it off."
<Tshaya> "They're all crazy. They seem ok, thought. BUt they're still 
crazy."
<Hatch> he nods. "seems so" he looks over at Leaf
<Leaf> *snooore*
* Tshaya follows his gaze. "Ah, him. He's a big oaf. He has some strange 
ideas about girls."
<Hatch> Adam nods. "I noticed."
* Tshaya looks at him. "What did he say to you anyways?"
<Hatch> "He asked if I'd marry you"
* Tshaya 's jaw drops.
<Tshaya> "He what??"
<Kun> (haha!!!)
<Hatch> "If I'd marry you. Or the skinny one who wandered off."
<Hatch> He shrugs
<Leaf> *snooo-teeheehee-ooore*
<Kun> *hahaha!!!!!)
* Tshaya stands suddenly and stomps over to Leafs sleeping form.
* Tshaya stares at him a moment.
<Leaf> *scratches himself in his sleep*
<Kun> (you have a natural awareness of currents flowing beneath the surface 
of events... in bed)
* Tshaya turns and walks over to the fire, looks into the pots, picks one 
up, and walks back to Leaf.
<Kun> (pan's fortune cookie)
<Hatch> (HAHAHAHAHA who's bed??)
<Kun> (in my bed ;)
<Hatch> (wooooooo)
* Tshaya sets the pot gently down next to him, then gingerly lifts his hand 
and puts it in.
* Tshaya stands, smiles, and walks back to Adam.
<Hatch> Adam smiles "That's just evil"
<Tshaya> "He deserves it."
* Kun sense evil
<Hatch> he laughs quietly "He would."
<Lyla_Rastin> timba come
<Kun> (just kidding ;)
<Tshaya> ((LOL))
<Lyla_Rastin> a large black pather bounds in to the clearing
<Hatch> Adam blinks
<Hatch> and points
<Tshaya> "That's Timba."
<Hatch> "Of... course..." he nods
<Leaf> *hears the cat and wakes up* " vha... vhy is my hand in dis pot? "
<Tshaya> "He's a friend of the Druid's. That's what she says, anyways."
<Lyla_Rastin> "timba, hunt and feed, go"
<Hatch> he nods
<Hatch> ^ Adam
<Tshaya> ((LOL))
<Tshaya> ((Timba nods)) ;-)
<Lyla_Rastin> i have a smart panther :p
<Tshaya> ((hehehe))
* Tshaya settles back against the tree again, watching the road.
<Lyla_Rastin> the panther bounds off again
* Kun - zzz
<Lyla_Rastin> walks in to the woods (ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ)
<Leaf> *SNOOOOORE*
<Kun> Zz
<Hatch> In the morning you wake, the four others are gone but the fire still 
burns
<Hatch> The sky is clear, but overcast in a small patch overhead
* Tshaya wakes up and stretches.
* Tshaya gets up an walks over to where Lyla is laying.
* Kun walks back to where the fire burns
* Tshaya looks down at Lyla smiling.
<Lyla_Rastin> hello
<Leaf> *leaf gets up and stumbles to a tree* " Leaf haf to go like racink 
horse*
* Tshaya looks around to her back, reaching down to pat it up and down.
* Kun says in a most venomous manner,"May we continue?"
<Lyla_Rastin> l
<Tshaya> "Just checking for daggers."
* Tshaya flashes her a grin, and stands up to join Kun.
<Leaf> *mounts to his saddle*
* Tshaya looks at Kun. "What's wrong with you?"
* Kun looks down at tshaya for a moment but doesnt answer
<Leaf> " grumpy von! let get goink! "
* Tshaya pulls out the finder thingy and looks at it.
<Lyla_Rastin> time for a new day and a new start, time for all things to end 
and tos tart again
<Hatch> (easterly)
<Tshaya> "Still east."
* Tshaya looks at Kun a second longer, then turns to job east down the road.
<Lyla_Rastin> follows 
<Hatch> As you begin to head down the road, the small cloud begins to move 
along in your direction. After a few minutes it begins to rain lightly.
<Tshaya> job=jog
<Leaf> *leaf looks relieved*
<Kun> (pitter patter, pitter patter)
* Tshaya ignores the rain.
* Kun pulls her cloak over her head
<Hatch> The cloud follows you through the day, stopping as you stop, the 
rain eases and pours by turns. As night begins to fall, the cloud fades.
<Lyla_Rastin> kun, the rain will not harm you
* Kun looks at lyla silently
<Hatch> (*fiddles with the remote* next morning again..)
<Tshaya> ((lol))
<Hatch> ^_^
<Kun> (do we find a snake in the road?)
<Hatch> (day whizzes by, night falling.)
<Tshaya> ((no, in the grass!))
<Hatch> (lol)
<Kun> (damn you Tshaya... DAMN YOOOOU)
<Tshaya> ((hehehe))
<Leaf> *clopity-clop clopity-clop*
<Hatch> (okay it's night time)
<Hatch> (anyone wounded has full hp again)
<Tshaya> "Who wants to stop?"
<Kun> "I could go longer, but i will not speak for the party"
<Leaf> *leaf vants to fight somethink*
<Tshaya> "Well, it's kinda dark...."
<Kun> "if you want to stop, say so"
<Tshaya> "Okay. I'm stopping."
<Hatch> (okie... you guys all go to sleep?)
<Kun> (is someone gunna watch?)
<Leaf> Leaf stands watch with binky*
* Kun sleeps
<Tshaya> "Hey lead, wake me up in a few hours."
<Tshaya> er leaf.
<Leaf> *nods*
<Lyla_Rastin> ((BRB need to get some water))
<Tshaya> "Don't let anything get us!" *grins*
<Leaf> " ha "
<Hatch> (ok what time does leaf wake Tshaya up?)
<Lyla_Rastin> ((back, finally))
<Tshaya> ((You weren't gone long at all. ;-)))
<Hatch> (hehe you must beam yourself up some water becca)
<Tshaya> ((Ask Leaf. ;-)))
<Hatch> (I was...)
<Hatch> (LEAF!)
<Leaf> *creeps over to Tshaya, fills up his helmet with water, and puts her 
hand in it*

<Kun> (yup)
<Leaf> ( ?)
<Leaf> ( then stay there )
<Hatch> Leaf and Kun can clearly make out the sounds are coming from the 
trees to the north, and closing fast. They seem to be attempting stealth, 
but fail miserably
<Tshaya> ((can i finish cleaning this up first?))

canines
