The are described in the missive at the guild seems calm, too calm for a forest. Neither land animals nor birds can be heard. Some bushes have been trampled and even two smaller trees have been uprooted here, a clear sign that the beast must have at least come through here.
Fenris saunters casually down the forest trail, humming a little walking song to himself. The big, fluffy tiger does not seem to mind the little bit of rain that trickles through the canopy overhead. In fact, the only thing that seems to indicate that he is not just out for a walk in the woods is the presence of his lumbering, bear shaped golem Bao Bao. On closer inspection, his walking stick is a heavily reinforced fighting staff. Not that he carries it like one. He stops to look at the ruin left in the wake of the mark he must be following and pokes at a trampled bush, looking around and listening to the sounds of the forest.
Cara walks through the forest with a large warhammer in her right hand. As she walks along, she raises an eyebrow at the trampled bushes and smiles upon noticing the bear golem and the accompanying fluffy tiger. "Hello again, Fenris. So, I take it you're here to help handle whatever we're dealing with today, right?"
Bao is dressed for trouble, kitted out in full mail and bearing a small targe blazoned with both Creator runes and the Solacious emblem. A short rod of living cypress is slung across his back. Everything on the sea lion is clean in ways no amount of rain could explain, even the toes of his boots.
A silver furred wolf walks along the forest path, wary of the creatures of the forest that may challenge him. He stops at a set of tracks leading through a trampled bush. He begins the examine the the area and notices a small group ahead. Cautiously approaching the group he calls out, "Friend, Or foe?"
The only thing to be heard is the quiet rustling of the wind in the leafs of the trees and the words of the assembling group itself as they slowly gather in the area. Enough light shines through the crowns of the trees to illuminate the forest ground well, and with the path of destruction the beast left, tracking it should not be too hard.
"Foe!" Fenris calls out cheerily in response to Aruc's challenge, "I have always wondered about people who ask that question." The fluffy feline strolls casually into the disturbed underbrush. "Honestly, I have always wondered what they would do if I yelled 'Foe!'" he says, his staff thumping rhythmically as he walks, "And now I get to see! Keep up people!" He shoots a smile over his shoulder, but does not wait, assuming the others will follow along.
Cara quickly turns to face the new arrival, "Well, come on. We
Cara quickly turns to face the new arrival, "Well, come on. We're just taking on another monster." She instantly follows after the giant fluffball of a tiger while she carries the large hammer with no trouble at all. "I wonder if this thing can take several pounds of force to the skull."
Little bothered by his armor, Bao slides past Fenris to take point. He winks at Cara. "We'll find out. The Rangers want to know, too." The sea lion moves comfortably through the forest despite his armor, pausing now and again to check the damaged growth and gauge just how big the invasive creature might be.
Aruc Looks at the strangers with a look of confusion and slight annoyance. He states " Why would you just randomly state foe... you know what nevermind. You are all after the moster aswell correct? Then I see no reason for us to cause trouble for eachother. Lets just focus on killing the thing in time for supper."
The group makes its way into a deeper part of the forest, the trails being easy enough to follow for even the most basic hunter and with the ranger leading the way, they quickly come to a small clearing. Here the trail ends, but it is easy to see that the creature has been here and moved on, with trampled bushes to both the north and east of the clearing.
Fenris does not even slow as he passes through the clearing. Nor does he speed up. He just saunters cooly along beside his golem that looks nearly as cuddly as himself, heading to the north. "I'm just saying," he says amiably, "It seems like a silly question. What foe is going to give himself away like that on the road? I mean, if you surprised them, maybe they would let it slip, but I don't know that I have ever met a foe that was -quite- so easily tricked." The tiger does not look around as he talks, his attention focused on the trail before him.
Cara sends her attention over to the trail as well. "I haven't really seen any tracks like this before. It'll probably be easier than that one reptile." She continues to follow after the male tiger as well after waving to the Solacious sea lion.
Bao turns back to the wolf, slowing but not breaking stride. "Tracks going east are older, in case you're wondering why Fenris here didn't stop." He doesn't yet have a weapon in hand, but makes no attempt to hide that he's increasingly expecting trouble.
Aruc looks at the being that addressed him and states, "That is no suprise, I dont expect a creature of its size to go very far very fast. Still, not knowing what the creature is makes my feel, uneasy." With that the wolf firmly plants his right hand on the Hilt of his blade.
Following the keen eyes of Fenris and Bao the group wanders the forest for about half an hour, tracking the beast with no major problems. Suddenly the relative quietness of the forest is broken by a thundering roar and the dying scream of an animal.
Fenris smiles over his shoulder. "That sounds promising, don't you think?" he asks, sauntering on, the thumps of his staff heavy in the dirt of the forest floor. "I don't know that I've seen anything quite like this before," he admits, "Makes me think of a Maneback, but it is far too big. But I imagine we will find out what it looks like soon enough." He does not look around, but his attention goes to Bao for a moment. "I did not realize that Solacious knights were often loaned to the rangers," he says, making conversation in spite of the animal shriek.
Cara's ears perk up as she hears the sound of the roar and a small smile begins to form on her face. She shrugs at the sound of the animal's shriek, "Well, it was going to happen considering the expected size of the creature. It reminds me of the Manebacks as well, Fenris." She looks at the silver furred wolf for a moment, and then braces herself as she begins looking around for the large beast.
Bao shrugs and draws a short, heavy blade. He swings it back and forth a few times to loosen his shoulders. "Auxiliary captain. Special case, I guess. Everybody wants t'borrow me, nobody wants t'own me." He looks over to Cara and Fenris' golem. "I'll try and keep its eyes on me. You lot can do the smashing."
Aruc draws his blade with one hand and readies a herb filled satchel with his other. An eager look crosses his face as he says "Hmm never seen one of these, I wonder how I should cook it?" He looks over his companions and dryly states "try not to get cut up too badly, I only have so many bandages."
Aruc says, "I Embrace the Trope."
