The Cat's Meow Tavern is quiet today, contrary to the name, it doesn't serve just those of the feline nature. You are all directed to a nice room upstairs where one of the richly dressed feline types are waiting, the lion looks at those gathered and grins with a feline grin, "Ah, hello. hello! Please take a seat." he gestures to the table and some chairs
Viara enters the room with a smile, padding over to a seat and hopping up into it. "Hello! I'm Viara, and who are you? I'm supposed to help you somehow, can you elaborate so that I can do the best job possible?" she yips, smiling widely. She takes in the decor a bit as she flays her tail about, watching the lion expectantly.
Angus slipped in quietly behind Viara, but refuses to take a seat. With a smile he clasps his hands behind his back and nods to the lion. "Thank you for the offer but I've been sitting in a rather dusty room for the past few hours and I think I'll stand." He responded, giving Viara a nod in greeting as he waited.
Mazurek is in griffon form as he has come to be for some time. He fits the name of the establishment...well, halfway anyway. The Raven-Panther follows behind Angus, and instead of taking a seat the quadruped instead settles to the floor in front of Viara. Silent footrest he is.
Cedric wasn't far behind the others in entering the tavern's room, giving the area a quick glance around before nodding to the welcoming lion. "Greetings." the young badger responded, pulling out a chair and taking a seat.
The lion nods to Viara and smiles, "I am Aqualia, it's a pleasure to meet you all." he chuckles at the questions and nods, "As for the job..." he looks over to a side room and calls out, "Genge, you can come out." A short persian cat comes out and nods, "Yes master Aqualia?" the lion chuckles and gestures towards the group, "These fine people will be escorting you to the outpost." The persian nods and smiles to the group, "Ah, You are to escort me to the Kindcraft area. There will be an outpost nearby, I have documents that will allow me to borrow some research notes." the Lion nods and smiles, "Any other questions?"
Viara scooches to the edge of the seat so that she can tap the griffon with a foot, offering a smile and a wave to everyone before she returns her attention to the lion. "The Kindcraft? They aren't good miners, are we going to have to fight them or will it be safe?" she asks curiously. "I guess we will since you want an escort. When should we go? It's nice to meet you Aqualia, and Genge."
Angus:nods lightly. "Not to restate Viara here, but how much resistance from the Kindcraft do you think we can expect, are we traveling there by foot. Not to mention are we taking any established routes to the location?" The fox asked bluntly, sizing Genge up slightly before he turned back to the lion.
Mazurek's tail swishes a little in response to the foot-tap, seeking to lightly bat against the leg of said foot, even shifting a little closer afterward, "I'll take a rider or two if needed. We'll get there faster that way." No saddle, though.
Cedric doesn't raise any further questions about the danger of the job, the others seem to have inquired enough about that for the time being. The badger leans back in his seat slightly and thumps his hands lightly on the table as he thinks about it for a moment. "I hope the question isn't too rude... but how much would the compensation happen to be, for this task?" he asks with an apologetic expression.
Aqualia nods to Viara and sighs, "Indeed, it's an unpleasent affair. And as soon as you are ready to leave will suffice." he chuckles, "Though they will be expecting Genge here to show up sometime soon." Genge nods at that and looks over at Angus, "Oh, we'll be taking a well traveled route. On foot sadly, otherwise I wouldn't need an escort. There is little expected resistance... But you can't be too careful with the Kindcraft." he shrugs at that before going pale at Mazurek, "Um, I'm sorry. I... I'm a bit afraid of heights." Aqualia hardly looks offended at Cedric's question and nods, "You will be fairly compensated. Provided the research notes, and Genge here, get here unharmed." he smiles
Viara nods and hops down, making sure not to jump on the griffon who she pats as she moves away. "Okay I can do this! He won't get hurt!" she declares and smiles, pulling out a shovel and smiling. "I'm ready to go when you are." she adds and looks to Cedric curiously. "Oh we'll get payed? That's nice I guess."
Angus taps his chin lightly as he nods, moving over near Mazurek to pat him on the shoulder. "Maz, you think you can try look out. Fly high enough to see if anythings coming our way, but close enough to offer us a warning?" He asked the Griffion, he wasn't much of a skilled flyer, and had never really ridden with the griffon thanks to his own fear of heights, so had no idea if his idea was a good or a bad one.
Mazurek shrugs, "It won't be any different than before, really. If nobody wants to climb up with me into the air, so be it. I can easily inform everyone if there's trouble. There's some advantages with being a griffon, after all. I can amplify my screeches with my air maths. I am not defenseless by any means, either."
"Performance-based incentive..." Cedric muses to himself with a nod in confirmation to Viara while lightly tracing his thumb's claw underneath his chin thoughtfully. "Sounds reason'ble enough to me. You?" he remarks with a friendly smile, posing the question to the others while pushing his chair back and leaning forward to rise to his feet quickly. He hadn't been sitting long, but it seemed more than long enough to him, and he was eager to get to work. The badger isn't afraid of heights, personally, and would be willing to give flight a shot. He doesn't mention this however, thinking it might be best for him to keep to the trail with the client.
With the question and answer round done, Aqualia nods as he escorts the escort and Genge to the entrance to the Tavern. He waves the group off and things get started along the way. At about the half day mark, Mazurek would spot a group of beings to the west of the group, seeming to be moving to cut them off
Viara smiles as she escorts the feline towards their destination, hefting around her shovel to be sure that people can see they are armed, if you consider a shovel a weapon. She looks back to the one being escorted and asks "What are we helping you get exactly? Or is that private?"
Angus frowns at all the noise being made. "Why did I have to be stuck with the civilian." He muttered softly as Viara waves her weapon around and draws attention to there little group. His own daggers stayed right were they belonged, stuck in their scabbards until they were needed as he walked along, flicking his ears as he stays ready in case of a signal from Mazurek.
Signal from the Griffon? Well, it doesn't really come in such a manner as one might have expected. The avian was circling a bit ahead of the group, within plain sight of them all. He breaks his momentum to begin circling the approaching group instead, calling down with the assistance of some air maths, "Hello there! Would you happen to know where the best hunting spots would be?" Bluffing? Perhaps.
Cedric sat nearby, watching the tiny wolf swing her shovel, while taking notice of Angus' displeasure. Truth be told, he'd been feeling antsy enough to start swinging something around, himself, from sheer boredom! He was able to contain his urges though, channelling them towards doodling in the dirt with a stick. His gaze turns over towards the circling griffon and he drops the stick and climbs up to his feet, heading towards Angus, Viara and their client. "Hey, I think I hear the griffon talking up ahead."
