"yeah.. we're going to see sssweeties." she hisses before smiling a little again to Kilsa. "It has been so long, you're always tied up in important things, we should make time together more often!" she hisses and perks up. "Not a problem sssweetie, you're one of us why wouldn't I invite you?" she adds before holding out a map. "This is the course we'll be taking, we'll be there... you'll have time for a nap." she hisses, not entirely sure how fast the cart will make it there. She edges the driver some crowns before settling down. "So sssweeties, is there anything anyone would like to talk about...?" she quizzes.<br> <br>Selena nods to Mirana. "I'm glad you like it, Mirana." She replies with a smile, though Arimia's silent arrival prompts her to give the raccoon a close hug; ears flicked back at the evident disappointment. "I... I heard what happened in Shanty Town, Ari." she murmers. "Let me know if there's anything I can do to help, okay?" She murmurs, loud enough to be audible in the cart. Having said her piece, she remains close with a look of concern on her face as she turns to address Kilsa. "You're joining us for this one? I'm glad to hear you can finally get out of the fortress with us." The wolfess smirks momentarily before looking back to Bite. "Don't think so, no. But we could discuss some work on repairing the damage that was done. Those people need places to live, even if they don't want our help."<br> <br>Mirana looks over to Arimia and then Travis. "Miss Arimia... I heard too, if you need crown, extra hands, a court apperance, anything I can do." She joins Selena in giving a hug before returning her gaze to Travis, "Hello? I don't think we've meet, I'm Lady Mira, but, Mira will do. I work for Lady Ironsoul as well." Then to Kilsa herself, "A pleasure as always My Lady, and I do hope I can be help in the condition I'm in. I think I could be of help at least in trying to solve any issues we might have or patch people up." Then, finally back to Bite, "Well.. yes, lets talk about how to help Shanty Town..."<br> <br>Arimia lets out a low growl and says, "No. Let's not. You can all just bloody drop it." She moves as far from the others as she can in the cart and draws a thin, dark blade. She looks over it then starts to work at maintaining it, looking it over for any dullness. "If you must talk, fine. But you will talk about something different."<br> <br>"I don't know what the Creators cursed madness happened out at shanty town but we lost so much life for nothing." The badger growls and her neck fur stands up before she calms down. "I sent three priest out to gather children while those attacks when it happened." She looks at Arimia. "I want you to join me when I go to the trail regarding these attacks." Kilsa eyes are hard as diamond. "I can't imagine what need would there be to kill so many." The badger hears her comment and sighs. "Creators preserved all those who died and Curse all those involved to the depths of the darkest pit." She growls before speaking to Selena, "I try to get out when I can signing papers all day and forging uselss weapons for nobles that will never see the field of combat because they fear their own fur." Kilsa grab Travis and gave him a big hug, "Its nice to have a male on board." She chuckles before letting the mink go.<br> <br>Travis looks around again, giving a polite nod to Selena and Arimia, and a soft smile as he nods to Bite and Kilsa. He looks to Mirana, giving a shy smile and a slight bow to her. "A pleasure to meet you. My name is Travis. I'm a fairly new, but trying to prove myself to be reliable." When the talk turns a bit to Shanty Town, he gets a sad and depressed look over his face, and then he meeps as Kilsa grabs and hugs him, hugging her back with a soft sigh. "I am glad to be here."<br> <br>The female taipan nods to Arimia, not at all willing to talk about the topic herself. She listens to Kilsa go on about the horrible things she saw and frowns, fighting off an aggressive feeling. Her voice carries a tone of aggrivation when she hisses "I really don't need to remember what I saw and treated right now sssweetie, I don't want to talk about it either... shut up about it." The serpent looks down at her map and works on re-occupying her thoughts, before she turns behind her, and sparks a flame off to the side of the cart, just enough to let out her pent up feelings before she resumes frowning. She moves over towards Arimia, gingerly as she attempts to lay into her smaller form slightly, but she'll back off if it won't be allowed. "So sssweeties... is everyone ready? Traps and beasties, treasure and loot?" she asks looking over her group of friends.<br> <br>Selena sighs quietly as Arimia moves away, her gaze shifting to the seat for a few moments before she nods to the raccoon. "You know where to find me if you want to talk or if you need anything. And I do mean anything." She replies, occupying herself with a book after a few more moments spared to listen to Kilsa's addition to the coversation. "Sure." She replies simply to the Taipan a little tacitly.

"It's what we're here for."<br> <br>Mirana gets up and moves over to Bite, "Yes, sure am ready, in fact, mind if I help you read the map Miss Bite? And, what kind of treasure do you think we will find? I know about your treasure hunts in the past, well, a little anyway, not much. Would you mind talking to me about them?" She pats gently on Bite as she talks, waiting for an answer inbetween each question. She nods to Kilsa though, "If you need help with paper work, just ask me ok My Lady?" And giving some attention over to Travis, "I'm sure you will prove useful, maybe more useful then me right now." She avoid talking about the forbiden topic, even though she wants to answer Kilsa's protests.<br> <br>Arimia gives a low growl, lips lifting to bare her teeth as Kilsa talks about the very thing she said she didn't want to talk about, but is distracted by Bite moving toward her. She shifts away a bit, enough to keep some actual distance between them, though no more than half a foot. She keeps her attention focused on her blade, though from the looks of it it doesn't need any attention. <br> <br>"I could use alot of help with the reports I've been getting from the locals of the small outskirt villages reporting that they want more supplies due to raids from... and get this because I almost don't believe it. Bone dragons being ridden by dead folks." Kilsa groans, "We've been stretch then trying to contain the threat but we are managing well if the letters back are any indication. I will admit that one troubles me with blood on it. I will see about making a personal visit myself." Kilsa sighs, "Creators.... Can I just get all the evil on promise to line up at my front door so I can hammer them in one at a time and skip the desk work?"<br> <br>Travis gives a soft sigh as he gazes out the wagon, watching the scenery as it passes by. When Kilsa mention bone dragons though, he almost jumps out of his seat, giving a squeak of surprise, eyes going wide as he turns to Kilsa, almost tumbling out of his seat in his surprise. "What was that? Bone Dragons? And this just started recently?"<br> <br>Bite frowns but nods to Arimia, using the space she's been given to lay in the cart fairly close to the raccoon, stretching and looking over the map. "Sure thing sssweetie, i think i got it perfect but I could use a second opinio.. bone dragons..." she hisses and squints. "I guess we shouldn't have left it for research teams, we could have brought the whole place down or at least sealed it back up." she adds. The cart quickly enters a dense forest along the path that Bite had charted out.<br> <br>Selena glances back over to Arimia for a moment, then back to her book, turning a few pages. As the subject of bone dragons comes up, the wolfess grumbles something quietly under her breath, closing the book and putting it in her bag. "Regar's minions. There's your cause." She states flatly, looking out of the cart side to wwatch the forest go by.<br> <br>Mirana looks over the map and takes notes of it, "Yes.. this looks like a good way to go! Nicely done Miss Bite. Now, we need to keep in mind though that avoiding trouble is better then solving it." She looks about the cart... she didn't like prying into her team mates... she really didn't but, she starts with Selena, exerting her unsual abilities to sense what Selena was going through, to try and understand starting with her. She'd try others later. "And.. bone dragons, I'd rather avoid them entirely if we can But... wow.. ok I'll look at your reports later." She says looking over to Kilsa. After memorising the map, she too looks out to the forest and tries to scoot a bit closer to Selena.<br> <br>Arimia finally slides her blade back into it's sheathe, apparently convinced she's done all she can do with it. That doesn't stop her for long, however, as she pulls a small sword from another sheathe, setting about inspecting that one. <br> <br>The badger looks a little sheepish at Selena, "Well. I'm no history buff but I remember him being dead. Nevermind all this grim talk is going to ruin what little time we have before we end up having to explore our little ruin and have a little fun." Kilsa eyes gleam as she takes a deep breath. "I for one want to enjoy this Creator bless day without thinking of the state of promise for a while." She looks at the forest herself, "I wonder what the Creators had in mind for us with this place." The badger mind drifts to the thought of her religon and the Creators.<br> <br>Travis gives himself another shake, and then closes his eyes. He sits quietly, trying to calm his breathing and his nerves, his fur all fluffed up from the shock of Kilsa's words. He tries to regain his peace, but now his mind is going over a lot of the things he has seen in just the last week, and very little of what he has seen was good.<br> <br>Bite smiles at the compliment, taking the map back. As she notices Mirana's actions, she frowns and lays back down near Arimia, setting her dagger out in the cart calmly before she closes her eyes. "I'm excited too sssweetie, just be patient, we'll get to experience it very soon." she hisses as the cart rolls on. The man up front seems more intersted in the storys being passed around than the path, the cart getting a bit bump as he swerves a little too far into some rough ground. "Sorry bout that folks." he says loudly.<br> <br>Selena doesn't seem to notice Mirana's closeness at all, though it's entirely possible she just isn't paying attention. "Hey Kilsa. You know those dragons were dead too?" She replies sarcastically, not looking back from the badger until after asking the question. "Unless I'm sorely mistaken, it's not a long shot to assume a man known for reanimating creatures and healing other beings from the brink of death, that posessed a cult following and had live workers in the ruins of his citadel could cheat death just a tiny bit with the help of some colossal lunar crystal that's now in posession of the blackbacks." She states flatly, keeping an even gaze on the badger for a few moments before sighing and shaking her head. "...Sorry." She sighs, turning her gaze back to the window.<br> <br>Mirana sighs, and looks to Bite's frown, "Miss Bite? What is that frown for?" she asks before looking to Selena. She can't think of anything to say to help the wolfess with what she is feeling, so she just offers a hug before looking over to Kilsa, "My Lady? I take it things need looking into? Will you be organising something to help?" She asks. She looks over to Arimia... no, no prying into Arimia. It might help her understand, but just no. Travis on the other hand... well, she didn't need Kitsune powers there, she just gets up and then sits back down with him...or rather that is what she ment to do, instead the bump causes her to fall into him instead. She looks up to him from her fallen position, "Umm, sorry. But, don't be so worried, or grim. Tell me about it if you can, I'll listen, and if you can't, well, then can I ask a few questions?"<br> <br>Arimia pulls out a whetstone and starts to sharpen the small sword. She continues doing so, essentially ignoring the conversation and movements of the others in the cart. Though not entirely, as her ears turn and flick to listen while her eyes remain focused on the blade. At the bump her hand slips, causing a cut along it, but she just ignores that and resumes sharpening the sword. <br> <br>The badger nods at Mirana, "I will probably take what help I can take." She nods and starts to nod off at the relaxing ride and begins to doze off but not before speaking to Selena, "I know but I'm trying to be hopeful." She mumbles before snoring reaches everyone ears. |

Mirana:tries new soul. Uses Dark Magic to make Rainer leak lots of bodily fluids inside the basket of his hot air balloon.
Bite has called together a group to aid in her retrieval of a treasure rumored to be greater than the statues and all of their combined riches themselves. Most of the ironsoul defenders have turned up in attendance, and carts have been prepared of the serpents own expense to take them across the meadows and forest out towards the mountains. The serpent sits in one of the carts, stretching and waiting for her friends with a happy giggle, statues in hand and tentacles.
Selena approaches the cart, pulling herself in. "So... Today's the day, Bite?" The wolfess smiles, leaning back in the seat and stretching out, looking back over her shoulders for the other's arrivals.
Mirana walks up herself, wondering a moment if this was wise. She shouldn't do anything too strainous and ponders what she would do if an actual fight came up. She sees Selena and Bite in the cark and walks over to try and pull herself in as well, taking a moment to actually do so, "Finally going to find out what those statues are about Miss Bite? I'm glad I can help." she says, getting herself a bit closer to Selena. "And thank you Selena for all the gifts."
Arimia walks over to the cart, cloak pulled around herself, and climbs into it to sit. She remains silent, not offering any greetings, and just being rather obviously being upset.
The badger leader of the ID and behemoth of a badger walks to the carts and waves to Bite, "Its been a while. I'm looking forward to this." Kilsa smiles and hops in the cart. "Its been so long and I'm more excited than I care to admit. It feels like old times." The badger says with a giddy laugh.
Travis makes his way over as well, a bit of a puzzled experssion on his face. He looks at the carts, and gives a wave to the people there, making his way over to carefully climb in. "Ummm. Hiya. Thank you for inviting me along."
The serpent giggles and writhes for a while, greeting Selena and Mirana with a smile before it fades when she sees Arimia, her mood reminding her of what happened and what she saw. "yeah.. we're going to see sssweeties." she hisses before smiling a little again to Kilsa. "It has been so long, you're always tied up in important things, we should make time together more often!" she hisses and perks up. "Not a problem sssweetie, you're one of us why wouldn't I invite you?" she adds before holding out a map. "This is the course we'll be taking, we'll be there... you'll have time for a nap." she hisses, not entirely sure how fast the cart will make it there. She edges the driver some crowns before settling down. "So sssweeties, is there anything anyone would like to talk about...?" she quizzes.
Selena nods to Mirana. "I'm glad you like it, Mirana." She replies with a smile, though Arimia's silent arrival prompts her to give the raccoon a close hug; ears flicked back at the evident disappointment. "I... I heard what happened in Shanty Town, Ari." she murmers. "Let me know if there's anything I can do to help, okay?" She murmurs, loud enough to be audible in the cart. Having said her piece, she remains close with a look of concern on her face as she turns to address Kilsa. "You're joining us for this one? I'm glad to hear you can finally get out of the fortress with us." The wolfess smirks momentarily before looking back to Bite. "Don't think so, no. But we could discuss some work on repairing the damage that was done. Those people need places to live, even if they don't want our help."
Mirana looks over to Arimia and then Travis. "Miss Arimia... I heard too, if you need crown, extra hands, a court apperance, anything I can do." She joins Selena in giving a hug before returning her gaze to Travis, "Hello? I don't think we've meet, I'm Lady Mira, but, Mira will do. I work for Lady Ironsoul as well." Then to Kilsa herself, "A pleasure as always My Lady, and I do hope I can be help in the condition I'm in. I think I could be of help at least in trying to solve any issues we might have or patch people up." Then, finally back to Bite, "Well.. yes, lets talk about how to help Shanty Town..."
Arimia lets out a low growl and says, "No. Let's not. You can all just bloody drop it." She moves as far from the others as she can in the cart and draws a thin, dark blade. She looks over it then starts to work at maintaining it, looking it over for any dullness. "If you must talk, fine. But you will talk about something different."
"I don't know what the Creators cursed madness happened out at shanty town but we lost so much life for nothing." The badger growls and her neck fur stands up before she calms down. "I sent three priest out to gather children while those attacks when it happened." She looks at Arimia. "I want you to join me when I go to the trail regarding these attacks." Kilsa eyes are hard as diamond. "I can't imagine what need would there be to kill so many." The badger hears her comment and sighs. "Creators preserved all those who died and Curse all those involved to the depths of the darkest pit." She growls before speaking to Selena, "I try to get out when I can signing papers all day and forging uselss weapons for nobles that will never see the field of combat because they fear their own fur." Kilsa grab Travis and gave him a big hug, "Its nice to have a male on board." She chuckles before letting the mink go.
Travis looks around again, giving a polite nod to Selena and Arimia, and a soft smile as he nods to Bite and Kilsa. He looks to Mirana, giving a shy smile and a slight bow to her. "A pleasure to meet you. My name is Travis. I'm a fairly new, but trying to prove myself to be reliable." When the talk turns a bit to Shanty Town, he gets a sad and depressed look over his face, and then he meeps as Kilsa grabs and hugs him, hugging her back with a soft sigh. "I am glad to be here."
The female taipan nods to Arimia, not at all willing to talk about the topic herself. She listens to Kilsa go on about the horrible things she saw and frowns, fighting off an aggressive feeling. Her voice carries a tone of aggrivation when she hisses "I really don't need to remember what I saw and treated right now sssweetie, I don't want to talk about it either... shut up about it." The serpent looks down at her map and works on re-occupying her thoughts, before she turns behind her, and sparks a flame off to the side of the cart, just enough to let out her pent up feelings before she resumes frowning. She moves over towards Arimia, gingerly as she attempts to lay into her smaller form slightly, but she'll back off if it won't be allowed. "So sssweeties... is everyone ready? Traps and beasties, treasure and loot?" she asks looking over her group of friends.
Selena sighs quietly as Arimia moves away, her gaze shifting to the seat for a few moments before she nods to the raccoon. "You know where to find me if you want to talk or if you need anything. And I do mean anything." She replies, occupying herself with a book after a few more moments spared to listen to Kilsa's addition to the coversation. "Sure." She replies simply to the Taipan a little tacitly. "It's what we're here for."
Mirana gets up and moves over to Bite, "Yes, sure am ready, in fact, mind if I help you read the map Miss Bite? And, what kind of treasure do you think we will find? I know about your treasure hunts in the past, well, a little anyway, not much. Would you mind talking to me about them?"

Can I just get all the evil on promise to line up at my front door so I can hammer them in one at a time and skip the desk work?"
Travis gives a soft sigh as he gazes out the wagon, watching the scenery as it passes by. When Kilsa mention bone dragons though, he almost jumps out of his seat, giving a squeak of surprise, eyes going wide as he turns to Kilsa, almost tumbling out of his seat in his surprise. "What was that? Bone Dragons? And this just started recently?"
Bite frowns but nods to Arimia, using the space she's been given to lay in the cart fairly close to the raccoon, stretching and looking over the map. "Sure thing sssweetie, i think i got it perfect but I could use a second opinio.. bone dragons..." she hisses and squints. "I guess we shouldn't have left it for research teams, we could have brought the whole place down or at least sealed it back up." she adds. The cart quickly enters a dense forest along the path that Bite had charted out.
Selena glances back over to Arimia for a moment, then back to her book, turning a few pages. As the subject of bone dragons comes up, the wolfess grumbles something quietly under her breath, closing the book and putting it in her bag. "Regar's minions. There's your cause." She states flatly, looking out of the cart side to wwatch the forest go by.
Mirana looks over the map and takes notes of it, "Yes.. this looks like a good way to go! Nicely done Miss Bite. Now, we need to keep in mind though that avoiding trouble is better then solving it." She looks about the cart... she didn't like prying into her team mates... she really didn't but, she starts with Selena, exerting her unsual abilities to sense what Selena was going through, to try and understand starting with her. She'd try others later. "And.. bone dragons, I'd rather avoid them entirely if we can But... wow.. ok I'll look at your reports later." She says looking over to Kilsa. After memorising the map, she too looks out to the forest and tries to scoot a bit closer to Selena.
Arimia finally slides her blade back into it's sheathe, apparently convinced she's done all she can do with it. That doesn't stop her for long, however, as she pulls a small sword from another sheathe, setting about inspecting that one.
The badger looks a little sheepish at Selena, "Well. I'm no history buff but I remember him being dead. Nevermind all this grim talk is going to ruin what little time we have before we end up having to explore our little ruin and have a little fun." Kilsa eyes gleam as she takes a deep breath. "I for one want to enjoy this Creator bless day without thinking of the state of promise for a while." She looks at the forest herself, "I wonder what the Creators had in mind for us with this place." The badger mind drifts to the thought of her religon and the Creators.
Travis gives himself another shake, and then closes his eyes. He sits quietly, trying to calm his breathing and his nerves, his fur all fluffed up from the shock of Kilsa's words. He tries to regain his peace, but now his mind is going over a lot of the things he has seen in just the last week, and very little of what he has seen was good.
Bite smiles at the compliment, taking the map back. As she notices Mirana's actions, she frowns and lays back down near Arimia, setting her dagger out in the cart calmly before she closes her eyes. "I'm excited too sssweetie, just be patient, we'll get to experience it very soon." she hisses as the cart rolls on. The man up front seems more intersted in the storys being passed around than the path, the cart getting a bit bump as he swerves a little too far into some rough ground. "Sorry bout that folks." he says loudly.
Selena doesn't seem to notice Mirana's closeness at all, though it's entirely possible she just isn't paying attention. "Hey Kilsa. You know those dragons were dead too?" She replies sarcastically, not looking back from the badger until after asking the question. "Unless I'm sorely mistaken, it's not a long shot to assume a man known for reanimating creatures and healing other beings from the brink of death, that posessed a cult following and had live workers in the ruins of his citadel could cheat death just a tiny bit with the help of some colossal lunar crystal that's now in posession of the blackbacks." She states flatly, keeping an even gaze on the badger for a few moments before sighing and shaking her head. "...Sorry." She sighs, turning her gaze back to the window.
Mirana sighs, and looks to Bite's frown, "Miss Bite? What is that frown for?" she asks before looking to Selena. She can't think of anything to say to help the wolfess with what she is feeling, so she just offers a hug before looking over to Kilsa, "My Lady? I take it things need looking into? Will you be organising something to help?" She asks. She looks over to Arimia... no, no prying into Arimia. It might help her understand, but just no. Travis on the other hand... well, she didn't need Kitsune powers there, she just gets up and then sits back down with him...or rather that is what she ment to do, instead the bump causes her to fall into him instead. She looks up to him from her fallen position, "Umm, sorry. But, don't be so worried, or grim. Tell me about it if you can, I'll listen, and if you can't, well, then can I ask a few questions?"
Arimia pulls out a whetstone and starts to sharpen the small sword. She continues doing so, essentially ignoring the conversation and movements of the others in the cart. Though not entirely, as her ears turn and flick to listen while her eyes remain focused on the blade. At the bump her hand slips, causing a cut along it, but she just ignores that and resumes sharpening the sword.
The badger nods at Mirana, "I will probably take what help I can take." She nods and starts to nod off at the relaxing ride and begins to doze off but not before speaking to Selena, "I know but I'm trying to be hopeful." She mumbles before snoring reaches everyone ears.
