A small ways into the swamp, just off the beaten trail, sits a recently excavated cave entrance it seems. This old entrance was once sealed by what seems to be a tarnished, round metal door that now lays discarded to the side. The local wildlife that usually flourishes around these parts is absent strangely enough, the only individual present is none other than Kalt it seems. The vixen clad in her usual gear, with that raggedy looking cloak tied tight around her, as she seems to be awaiting the arrival of her 'help'.
And help has arrived, Angus traverses the swamp after recieving the call. He was ready for action, his usual gear replaced with equipment he thought would be better suited for this situation, his mainback and canvas replaced with leather with a crystal studded bow hanging off his back as he steps up to Kalt and smiles. "Hello hun, was it you that sent the call?"
Thelergramor walks on through the swamp shirtless, clearly in basilisk form with his grey-green scales on display. His serpentine tail drags behind him, a cannon held heavily in one arm and a guisarme in the other. Knife and axe at his belt, the ammo pouch containing more cannonshot next to them... The basilisk came armed. Though, caves and cannons...
Thel glances around from behind his plague mask, seeing Angus and Kalt, and hoping she doesn't still hate him at the moment... He walks over to them, leans on his polearm and speaks: "Kalt, Angus. This the place then?"
Zuri is among the group that answered Kalt's summons. The small salamander jovially strides alongside some of the others while munching on the remains of a chocolate-covered biscuit. On seeing Kalt the young mercenary quickly pats down his shirt to pat down any crumbs that might have made its way there. As per usual, he does not bring much in the way of armor other than sturdy cloak and vest, and for weapons he has only his two matched daggers. He comes to a stop next to Angus, and can't help but wave excitedly at Kalt in greeting.
Assuming this to be the previously discussed operation, Cassidy was naturally present. Though if this IS said operation... She's more than a little surprised to see all of these... Other, undiscussed parties here. She doesn't show it, though, with the porcelain mask on her face. She just gives a little shake of her head and looks towards Kalt. "This isn't the infiltration thing we were talking about, is it?"
Fenris saunters up in his customary long coat, an odd, silvery little otter shaped golem romping around his feet. He does not have much to say, just giving a questioning look to Kalt and a lazy salute to the others.
Cara runs through the area with her usual weapons in hand, however her standard attire has been replaced with with a canvas and more suitable clothing that consists of much shorter pants, boots, and a canvas jacket with multiple pockets that hold emergency supplies. She stops as she notices the large basilisk in the area and smiles, "This is going to be rather difficult if a basilisk is needed." Then, from out of the corner of her eye she notices two other familiar people. It appears that Fenris and Zuri made it on the list for this mission as well. She nods to them and moves over to the royal couple, eager to hear the report on the job for today as indicated from the gently swaying of her tail.
Ariving shortly after Cassidy, and wearing her padded sneak-suit, Natska takes up a spot by her wife's elbow. She gives a small, happy smile to the gathered crew, then turns her attention to Kalt, her ears perked as she waits to hear what is up.
Kalt returns Zuri's wave with a smile before the Vixen nods to Angus. "Yup, got sumptin' m'needin some folks to do for me... an' no Cass, this ain't the doom an' gloom trip... But it'll go help in' us for it." She pushes herself from the wall, and crosses her arms over her chest. "In this here cave, is a map, four runestones, an' some treasure. I'm needin the map an' runestones, the treasure is all yers to split how ya want it. They got some traps, an' they got some weird nasty fightin things. I won't be join in' ya for the push inside, m'gonna be checkin to make sure nuttin follows us in, 'fore I meet ya at the end. Any questions?"
Angus gives all a nod in greeting as he unslings the bow, drawing it taut to make sure that the pull was right. "So some cave splunking to try and find shines? Sounds about normal." He comments, flashing his bondmate a smile as he regards the others, seeing who would be coming with him.
Thelergramor has no questions for Kalt, aside from: "How big is it inside? We talking huge, or too small for a cannon to be useful?" He assumes it won't be a good idea to bring it in with him, considers leaving it with Kalt at the entrance. He then glances at Cara, nods. "Yeah, always good to have one of us around. Except when it isn't." Makes enough sense to the basilisk!
He then greets the rest. "Cassidy, Fenris, Natska... Other's whose names I don't know." He smiles behind his plague mask, looks back towards the cave. While it may not have been obvious from a distance, the basilisk has a few bruises on his body from his recent captivity. Nothing that should interfere with his performance today, or he wouldn't have shown up...
"Should be fun..."
Zuri steps up next to Angus, nodding in agreement with his words. "Walk in the park, eh mister Angus?" He tucks his hand into the breast pocket of his vest to retrieve yet another chocolate biscuit to start nibbling on. He smiles back at Cara. "And hey, if things do go sour in there, I guess we can practice some fancy martial arts!" He chuckles and takes a bite of his biscuit, seeming quite relaxed at this point in time.
"Ahh. Good, good," Cassidy says, nodding along and patting down her own padded jumpsuit before tucking her hands in the pockets dark longcoat she wears over it. "I was going to say... Didn't know how I felt about so many unknown variables on a sensitive job like that. This one seems alright enough, though." A nod to Thel. "Good to see you're alive. I was wondering what happened to you after that mess in the shanties."
Fenris nods and makes a few minor adjustments to some strange, silvery sleeves he is wearing and flexing his fingers in his gauntlets. He whistles and his golem clambors to his shoulders.
Cara answers politely, "No." Then, she proceeds to turn to everyone else and frowns before speaking, "Um, sadly I don't really know anything about traps though." She manages to smile as she continues, "I can certainly fight if you need me to do that, but is it okay if I just stay close to someone that actually knows about traps though? I'll give you my share of the treasure if you're okay with that."
and
Then, she turns to Zuri and responds, "If all goes well, then we shouldn't have to show off, Zuri." She proceeds to chuckle for a moment, "This is either going to be a very interesting day or a really strange one. Hopefully, these aren't the freaky kind of traps."
