The Mountains were as warm as they seemingly always were, various critters scittering around as night time begins to set upon the land and chills begin to take to the desert air as a thick mist begins to form around the surroundings. Near the rumored cave, is a group of three people... Two Graceful Clan Sparrows, and Kalt herself all leaning up against a wall while waiting. The Sparrows were clad in your most basic adventuring gear, boxes of torches and spools of ropes ready to aid those heading in. Kalt herself is clad in a light brown leather jacket, with gilded chain below it and bronze knee and shin guards upon her legs. Two short swords at her hips, and she appeared more than ready for anything about to happen! THough, judging from the lack of weapons on the sparrows... They were the 'brains' behind this operation.
Fenris arrives on the scene looking immaculately groomed and wearing his long coat. He took careful stock before he came today to make sure he looked just right, since he had not had a chance to approach Sally about fixing his blunder from the other day. Five fingers on each hand, slighter build, regular face patterns. It was rough to have to put on your real face as a disguise! Hopefully, his coat would disguise any small irregularities in his proportions.
The tiger gives a lazy salute as he joins the group. "What's the plan?" he asks with an easy smile.
Thelergramor makes his way to the mountains, approaches the group. Clad in his coat, no shirt under it nor any chainmail. Light on equipment, just his knife, pistol and spear. Plague mask, scarf and hat, a flask marked 'not water' in his hand, drinking what is likely alcohol. "Right. What's all this then?" Uninformed, for the most part.
Rainer finally comes running up, probably a good few minutes later and right around when they're starting to reason that no one else is likely coming, stumbling to a halt a few paces short of the group and doubling over, planting his hands on his knees to keep himself from toppling tuckus over teakettle. "Waaait! Wait... I'm... I'm here...! Don't start... I wanna... I wanna come too... Explorer... Extrordinaaaaiii-aaaaw what gives?" Suddenly and inexplicably he's reinvigorated, or just too outraged to remember he's exhausted, the wolf snaps upright and gestures with upturned palms at the predominantly militia group. "I thought this was a Freeswords job!"
Always one for exploring and seeing what was what, Lucasiel rattles onto the scene in all of her plated glory, axe propped on her shoulder. "Well, considering I'm here, it must be an open job." She glances amongst the others, adjusting her helm before nodding. "Good to be seeing you all."
With her cloak pulled close, and the crimson scarf covering all that doesn't get pulled into shadows by the hood of her cloak, Sara dutifully trudges up the mountain and stops behind the group that had already stopped infront of the cave. "Hmm.. is this the place?" she asks, her voice muffled behind the silken material of her scarf.
Kalt gives a slight wave to Fenris as he approaches, offering a slight shrug before motioning to the sparrows "I ain't knowin', these two are figurin' they're the brains behind it an' all so M'figurin' they'll tell us." One of the sparrows jumping up at that, before turning and bowing to the approaching group. "Goodness! Plenty of people now! Hello though! My name is Marcuss, and this is my brother Dave. We're 'expedition' funders, and planners and such I suppose you could say~" A low grunt from Dave signalling his own greeting before Marcuss continues, blinking at Rainer. "Hm? It is! I...
