A startled cry, and a darting shape. The crowd parts as something moves through it at a rapid pace. It's small enough to not be easily visible from a distance, though its effect on the crowd is like a ship through water, eventually veering off into an alleyway.
Selena paces out of her abode at the sound of the disturbance, looking over the crowd with a quiet sigh and muttering something to herself, glancing around the alley for a moment and tapping one of the passers-by. "What did I just miss..?" She asks with a hint of lethargy on her tone.
From the direction of the river, there's a badger making his way home down the path when he hears the cry and sees some swift movement in his peripheral vision. Cedric raises an eyebrow as he wanders over towards the source of the commotion, still damp from his swim. He notices Selena wandering over at about the same time, and offers a little wave. "What happened? I thought I heard some kinda noise."
Having been on patrol nearby, a certain noble fox blinks at the disturbance in the crowd. Ictus hmms as he follows the trail to the allyway, starting to hide in the evening shadows as he looks around
Following the trail to the alley is not too difficult. Some people are pausing, looking in that direction, while others press onwards. No one seems entirely sure what they're reacting to. The alley is dimly lit, with deep shadows hiding what may be hiding within.
The rattle of her plate-mail announces Rixo's presence briefly before the panda, herself, makes her way onto the scene. "What's all this about? More of a disturbance than I'm used to over here." Her helmet is tucked under her arm, for the time being, as she glances among the crowd.
Selena sighs, shaking her head disappointedly as she moves off immediately down that 'trail' with a quick wave to Ictus, Cedric and Rixo with a brief smile, a flick of her hand bringing a few flickering flames into existance to light up the alley.
Cedric nods as the flames lights up the alley, and turns his head to look around for any clues that may have been illuminated by them. "Hmm..."
Light spills out into the darkness, banishing the shadows closest to Selena. A small figure shrinks behind a box, a boot or shoe of some sort shrinking out of sight.
Ictus nods to Selena as she arrives and chuckles at the balls of flame, "Well, that's one way to flush them out." as he looks towards the box and hmms as hje approaches, "What do we have here?"
Rixo leans on the wall of one of the buildings, just behind the others. "I'm kind of curious, myself. Whatever it was, it was moving pretty quickly. A thief, maybe? I didn't hear much of the shouting that usually comes with such a happening."
Selena looks back to the fox and then the box. "Yes, what indeed. I can safely say it isn't Arimia." She jokes, looking over to Rixo. "I'd like to hope not." She replies, looking over near the box. "Hey, are you all right back there?" The wolfess queries, moving over to the box cautiously.
Wulf is a bit late to the party, but she supposes thats fine. Being in the back meant she could ensure the zippy thing didn't slip by. "Sorry I'm late."
A short figure suddenly bursts out from hiding. It's wearing very strange clothing. No cotton of local manufacture, that's for certain, and such bright colors! Its hands are covered in white gloves and a hood flaps about its head, concealing it as it dashes away with a squeak.
Cedric stretches his arms out as he glances in the direction of the figure, a little surprised at its sudden departure from hiding. "H-hey, wait!" the badger shouts after the squeaky being before running after it without much hesitation.
Rixo rubs her neck and sighs before jogging after Cedric at a more relaxed speed. "We're not going to hurt you or anything!" A moment of pondering and she adds, under her breath, "I think."
Ictus looks to Selena and sighs, "Likely the case though..." he then blinks at the being and shakes his head as he chases after with Cedric, "Stop!" as he works to catch the being
Selena blinks as the figure takes off, a little dazzled by the bright clothing. "Well. Hey Wulf." She greets the husky as she arrives. She doesn't attempt to run after the small figure as Cedric moves off, but she does follow the pair.
Getting a hand on a shoulder, Cedric sends the small figure spinning around. The hood whips free, flopping onto... her... back. A child, bare of flesh, with no snout to speak of. She squeals when held and begins speaking animatedly in a strange tongue, frantic and frightened. It sounds similar to the common tongue, but off.
Wulf tips her imaginary hat at Selena and dashes off to help Cedric and Ictus to catch the speedster. "Wait up there you!" as she catches up she slows to a halt, staring at the child with interest. "That in the creators name..."
Cedric blinks a few times after the hood falls, unable to understand any of the being's odd rambling. "Er... hi? Can you understand what I'm saying?" the badger asks, quickly adding, "Cause I don't understand a word you're saying." he then notices the bare flesh and the lack of a snout, and releases the female being's shoulder, to try and show her he doesn't intend to hurt her.
If she was curious before, she's fascinated, now. Rixo rubs her eyes with the hem of her cloak just to make sure it's not some kind of trick of the eye. "You're... Well. This was unexpected. Can't say I've ever seen anything quite like you. Interesting!"
Ictus sighs as Cedric catches the being first and shrugs, then he blinks at the child with a shake of his head, "What...?" his eyes go wide then, "A... A creator? Here? Why? What is she doing this far from the camp?"
Selena blinks as the being begins to talk, shaking her head. "First tongue, I'll bet." She comments simply as she comes up to the others, looking back to the child with a quiet sigh. "Could you speak slowly?" The wolfess asks the child, tilting her head slightly - though not asking the same questions as the others to be sure. Ictus and Rixo's comments are met with a shrug. "Let's not crowd her. Children are curious; that's all the reason they need to wander about."
The child bounces back a step or two, looking between all those present. When not being held, she seems to calm, taking a few breaths, then trying again, slower. Most of the words are either archaic, or just... wrong... As if she were simply taught badly, or were from a land so distant, the accent rendered it night intelligible. 'Hello' comes through at least. She puts a hand on her chest, 'Juliana', then repeats the gesture and word again.
Wulf backs up a bit and twitches her nose curiously. "Your name is Juliana? Can you understand us little girl?" The Husky crouches to the ground to get more to eye level with her. "Your awfully fast."
Ictus nods to Selena in agreement as he takes a step back, "Err... Hello." as she introduces herself, or at least that's what he assumes, "Ictus." as he repeats the gesture
Cedric nods to the little creator girl. "Well, hello Juliana. Um... sorry about chasing you, I just wanted to make sure you were okay. Are you lost?" he asks, crouching down slightly so that he's speaking to the girl at her own height.
Rixo just offers a shrug. She's not so good with children, but she places a gauntleted hand on her chest. "Rixo. Nice to... Meet you?" She shrugs again and gives a polite bow, completing her greeting, before she takes a step back to give the child space.
