"Let's just go, Marcus!" one of the two sparrows huddled around the little campfire says to the other, "No one is coming!" The other snorts at him. "Relax, David!" he says, "I'm sure that they will show up soon. That treasure is bound to be down here! Just think about last time!"

Thelergramor walks towards the campfire, hands in his pants pockets. His plague mask upon his face, one lens cracked from a slight altercation with a certain fox and her prosthetic limb. Equipped heavily with weapons, the wolf silently steps up to the sparrows. No words, glances behind him for anyone else coming.

Garbed in her full combat regalia, Natska approaches the pair of bird-folk at their campfire. The jaguar rests her ornately inscribed gauntlets on her hips, tapping at her metal tassets for a moment, then nods. "There was a notice that you needed Freeswords," she says, glancing around.

A clanking lion swiftly jogs towards the job location in all due haste, each step forcing his equipment to clank against each other with the subtltly of an overloaded blunderbuss. "Greetins!" Dio exclaims with a somewhat heavy pant. "I came 'ere as fast as I could with all this 'eavy armor I got goin' on." Thrusting out his chest and reclaiming his breath, he slams a fist upon the heavy armor on his chest in a proud fashion. "Dio the Traveler at yer service. 'ow can the Freeswords 'elp ya today?"

Trailing just behind Natska, Cassidy slinks onto the scene in her apparel. A red tailcoat worn above a short black skirt, with her hat and mask in attendance as usualy. "Not quite a relaxing day, but it should be fun at least, right?"

Towards the campsite of the sparrow beings the figure of a tall, monochrome furred being travels casually, clad in everyday garb with no hint of armor or weaponry to be found visibly on his person, save for the fact that the badger is followed by a fire elemental of roughly the same size and shape as him. As he approaches the sparrows, he gives a quick nod to the pair of sparrows, as well as Dio, Natska and Cassidy, quietly agreeing with their sentiments. "Haven't had a good treasure hunt in a while... not since that farm incident with all the corpses..." Cedric muses, scratching his cheek idly. "Anyhow, we should get down to business, I s'pose..."

The jumpier of the two sparrows cries out and whirls on Thelergramor. "Lost scouts!" he cries when he sees the wolf's masked visage, firing off a shot from his small pistol!

"David!" the other sparrow shouts, grabbing his brother's arm, 'What are you doing!?" Marcus looks around at the coming Freeswords. "I am so sorry!" he says, "Is he alright? David is a terrible shot!"

Thelergramor blinks as one of the sparrows pulls a gun and fires at him. The shot hits his left upper arm, tearing a bit of his chainmail and leaving a nice, bleeding gash. A few inches to the left, might have hit bone. As it is now, just a flesh wound. "...Are you fucking KIDDING ME!" Thel drops his hands to his swords, glaring at the bird. Able to contain himself out of some divine miracle, he doesn't attack the bird. "...I'm fine." Thel takes his scarf, ties it around the wound. "Be glad I'm in a good mood. Yesterday, you would have been dead already." The wolf crosses his arms, leans back. "Alright, what are we doing?"

Natska tenses at the gunshot, ready to leap... but not to Thel's defense, and she relaxes, and then gives Cass a nod. "Yea, but it sounded too interesting." She moves closer, and calls out. "Please do not shoot Private Meat. He is good enough at hurting himself, thank you."
