(This song is catchy and has been stuck in my head. I also enjoy the story woven by Josh in the Brony DnD posted on Dr Wolf's channel. My mind wove the two together for a non-canon scene that I wanted to draw out but at current my time is occupied by a couple or so things, and I need to work on practicing pony's/wolves/beasts in general as they are not my strong suit nor is drawing things in full with all proper proportions, this is my attempt to write out what has been playing as a moving scene in my head to the song)757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInUrrCLkum

Our heroes arrived on a new land after a slight mis-course. They had taken their leave from the fire elves and everything seemed fine until a thick fog rolled in, causing them to get turned around somehow. The daylight was soft as they made their way across this new island of untold possible aid and danger. So far they hadn't found much help against Simula here, except for a tribe of forest gnomes that had previously tried to take down Amber as they had thought she was something like a reptilian deer in humanoid form.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhrg2KByKC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL2oM0x2rO
"It was this way they had said we could find the dragon's, right?" Jalerom questioned with the map they had gotten from the gnomes in front of him. He pushed back some of his hair that blew into his eyes before looking up to Kross and Amber that were in the lead.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIrWXDIGv4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvv3R1o6OD
Faerthurin took a breath and folded her arms. "I'm sure we didn't miss anything, overly cautious rogue." She flatly commented before looking over to Lucid on her shoulder, reaching up and gave his feathered head a pet. "This may be a stupid question Jalerom but has anyone told you that you worry too much?" she lightly chuckled as did the raven at this question.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKrS1rn1wN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQjPnPpLhy
"Well I'm sorry that I believe so strongly that it's better to be safe than sorry." Jalerom retorted quickly with a head turn to see her smirking.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWllQaRaX2
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pYNwy9dYD
Faerthurin lightly shook her head as Jalerom looked back to the map. She gently held an offered hand to Lucid. "Lucid, please fly ahead and see how much farther it is to the town of Thason." She requested and the raven gave a caw, hopping on her hand then taking flight as he took off ahead of the party.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAnGNeKgQX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalTp3yrf9z
"So, what other creatures do you think are going to maybe be there? That we might be able to recruit that is?" Kross asked after some moments of silence and looked to Amber at his side as she spoke up first. The golden viper called Jaylen lifted her cobra head with a hissing yawn, hanging relaxedly around Kross's neck and gave a small nod before looking to her master. He gently stroked her scales and she laid her head back down, happy for the attention.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0OwhcCay4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn2xyDlYkL
"Well there should be dragons obviously and other reptilian type creatures based on what the gnomes told us. There could also be some humans!" she had excitement in her voice with the ending sentence.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhci6NQxHmF
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyqyRZkSKu
Kross chuckled at Amber's jovial tone before looking back as another voice spoke up. "Just don't let your guards down too much. We still don't know how welcoming these creatures are going to be." Jeminya stated from her Pegasus mount Starjay. "We may have done well to not be killed by the fire elves and we prevented Amber from becoming a meal for the gnomes, but we don't know what else these new creatures are going to be like."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT8AzuYw8P
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcNHnSISIQ
"You could adapt my behavior towards humanoids and not trust them." Rose commented from where she rode on the back of her giant wolf known as Shiloh.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKX3iajwAF7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNsMQJ9htb
"But you trusted us enough from the beginning." Amber stated as she turned her attention to Rose.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOy1oDqQIe
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvByP3KOS3
"That was because it was necessary. Meeting these creatures, unless we are trying to recruit more allies, aren't really necessary."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNmzyEpi87
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI351Q60YQc
Ivan jogged up to walk in line with Rose after walking beside Oin. "I'm sure if we just show them we mean no harm like we have been doing then I'm sure everything will work out just fine." He chipperly said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeQUcsSVC1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtbwmAh29a
Oin sighed and folded his arms, looking over their unique group. "I would like to hope if we do manage to find these yellow dragons and meet with their leader, if he or she says no," he turned his dwarfen gaze on Jeminya, "that we can continue to not have a repeat of unwarranted violence like what happened back in Optimarr."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvagSJnbrBC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPqjwE0wS9
Jeminya huffed, folding her arms as she turned her tiefling gaze on Oin. "One time, I lost my temper one time on a leader and you won't stop bringing it up."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJCHH7jLck
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0P1ABHOXv
"I also recall you having an attitude towards other leaders, yet those others were very forgiving of that young pup behavior that comes out when things aren't going exactly your way." Oin sternly stated, locking eyes with the red horned woman.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhCwVIruNr
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZghSjd4Ern
Ivan moved back in-between the dwarf and tiefling as the rest of the party had come to a stop. "Yes, that is true but she's grown a lot since then and learned how to be more queenly."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNac5AMEZT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nvUGYpOI8
"I was just stating a fact and my hope for the future since I do not enjoy being wanted by royalty." Oin firmly explained before continuing onwards to catch up with the rest of their group which had halted to watch. "Shall we continue?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUbR3JC2tP
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyayzxEv3F
"Yes, if your old bones can keep up that is." Jeminya stated lightly before pushing some of her dark hair back behind her shoulder, giving her steed the order to jog forwards. Ivan smiled and quickly broke into a jog to keep up before returning to a walk.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhzHPeHYSn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8ONaFJnsU
Quietness settled over the party once more for a minute or so before Rose spoke up, turning her attention to Jeminya. "Tell me, can your sister's magic reach this far across the ocean?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWG6ttvUdU
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSO1oT7qci
Jeminya sighed with a shake of her head. "I have no idea. There's a chance Simula's magic can reach us but there is also a chance it cannot...but I wouldn't put it past her to be able to be scouring us right now."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNddM4RvpH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTom9eSjY9t
"Of course she would." Kross muttered under his breath. "She's always got to be two steps ahead in the game."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDsB0N7q9t
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoHB9JbbGk
"But we'll change that. We'll learn how to be two steps ahead of her." Jalerom added quietly from behind the saurian shifter ranger.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaLH8zzknN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLYNNtbQyL
Shortly after that, Lucid returned and landed on the offered hand of his master. "Yes Lucid?" he adjusted his wings and his footing as he explained to her in their shared mental link. "Thank you." She looked to the group as the bird flapped and landed on her shoulder. "He said we should reach it by this afternoon and to be weary because of the the um...unique goods the merchant's in the square have for sale."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslGqX9kFNI
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamRCidVmH4
"Unique how?" Kross asked with a raised eyebrow as he looked over his shoulder to the dark elf sorceress.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsRxw1GMqB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj1IAi7OpE
"Unique in that we may want to avoid being arrested or somehow captured." Faerthurin stated in her blunt tone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0OFKGt2kh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVmtwDHwYu
There was silence until Jeminya spoke up quietly. "I'm going to take a guess at this, slave market?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkAxK0Vicu
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCjzYtfyG9
Faerthurin nodded. "Yes with different races that aren't humans."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9JDlEQrAB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEfN2KLwUR
"So anyone would be money for them if we get arrested, aside from maybe Ivan and Rose." Jalerom said after he looked up from the map, turning to see Faerthurin give another nod.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDARb67o06V
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6bWN9mEfP
"Pretty much."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkTSR09xqc
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWs2JVhpCtF
"Then perhaps we should figure out who we will be aiming to speak to directly so we aren't tempting our luck." Oin suggested and received an unanimous agreement from the party.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNbRMFM061
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2adOkK2iuB
"Well we want to speak to the leader of the yellow dragons. Maybe we should just aim for the largest building that fits the appearance for royalty?" Amber suggested as the group came to a stop.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5Bgaj8OE1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GvHvewLFX
"Maybe should the royalty here live in a castle, palace or mansion. Does anyone know what dragon leadership lives inside of?" Jalerom questioned.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSmaHmsOnQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa3pmsOQ58
"What else would nobility with money live in?" Kross countered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlUwIleUDC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsc9H3DRKa
"Wouldn't some dragons find caves fitting or a structure made of stone for security for their hoarded goods?" Rose asked curiously.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcRnzbwmt0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtVMhfa5m2
Amber huffed annoyed. "Hey I'm offended by that! You know Amarta and me are both dragons and we don't live in caves or such dwellings."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96634iiSKX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTPn7Av0It
"That is why I said some dragons, not all."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfdhURQjGn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zisAU41d9
"We will probably need to be diplomatic with whoever we choose, if necessary, when asking for the location of the leadership if we cannot find any guards." Faerthurin looked to Ivan.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYqYXKi6U7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo1X1YaTzQ
Ivan smiled with a hand patting his chest. "Leave it to me! I can reason with anyone easily."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8GiTOhvVZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHiWYZwcCf
"Well then, we won't dally and will see if we can meet with the nobility as soon as possible so we don't run the risk of becoming a profit in some merchant's pocketbook." Jeminya stated and the rest nodded.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcjyZCHEOd
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHCeK93U89
The party resumed walking in the direction of the town. They arrived in the busy settlement that had guards patrolling the streets. "Well this town seems normal enough." Ivan commented before moving over to a guard that was chatting to a humanoid hooded lizard.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj77E8Qv6U9
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAaHml7YVm
"Looks can be deceiving." Rose muttered quietly as she started looking around. "I know from personal experience."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSu0m4yCFkj
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAPkHJQ7om
"Hello sir, how are you today?" Ivan nicely asked the guard.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOkP8xkBBM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4081Fc6oIP
The woman gave the guard his drink and went back inside. He took a sip and looked to Ivan. "You are way too chipper." He gruffly stated in a flat tone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL178W39mP
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNrfwfiklX
"Oh thank you! So I was wondering if you could dire-"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5hEAtBRIv
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoNBxzNTcN
"Talk to me later. I'm on break and don't feel like handling chipper musicians or merry party's when I'm not required to." He rudely interrupted before taking another drink from his mug, bags looking to be under his eyes.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08CUFVJjo5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFzlUiTTBE
Jalerom moved up and pulled Ivan back. "Sorry to interrupt."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct1Je6sJip
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDhejozCCN
"Maybe it would be best we just look around first." Jaminya said as the pair rejoined. The group agreed and they proceeded forwards. They passed by a few homes, a jeweler shop and a potions shop before coming into the town's square with an unknown follower behind them. It was in the square they would see different small stands set up, with four sellers that had some cages set up with creatures inside and a couple having them outside of cages in chains.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVkp4VeXc0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM8WFGfhjk
Amber moved closer to Ivan who gently took her hand into his as she had her arms wrapped around his. "Should we try asking another guard?" she quietly asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBufgBFYH7n
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgM29XHJgj
"I could always give it another shot." Ivan suggested.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxvj79cr3z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidgyAjKGwI
"I think the sooner we find them and go the better." Rose lowly stated as Faerthurin nodded, neither enjoying some of the eyes on their group.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uwQnL3OVH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIimrkZcw7D
They continued before stopping upon hearing a female's voice break out of the business chatter. "Hello new faces~" was called sweetly out by a lovely young woman with some snake scales on her flesh. The party looked to one another before Ivan began to approach the woman sitting behind a stall attached to a tent. Kross approached with Ivan, taking in the sight of the fine clothing she had hanging and folded, along with spools of thread and a few simple bracelets. "What brings a handsome lot like yourselves all the way here?" she sniffed the air, a surprised look coming to her face. "And across the sea no less. Interesting."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dJt3HiEun
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYk5KK9QkT
"Hello to you as well ma'am. You have many fine wears here." Kross said politely which brought her to smile.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgfI2oP9OF
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhn8H4psyF
"Oh we're here on business and could use help finding someone."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaS9WVzrOV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4x64Pfsia
"Finding someone is what a vendor is for." She cooed happily. "Who do you seek?" she turned her eyes to Kross with a devilish smirk pulling at her lips. "You have good eyes, saurian and also," her gaze returned to Ivan, "my information is not free."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XiqGM4bJZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCzugwXiCV
Kross eyed her with unease as he took a small step back. "What will information, should you have it, cost to get it?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Sh5jQD9J0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGX2TMVqPBf
She gave a quiet chuckle, resting her elbow on the stand as she leaned forwards and placed her chin gently on her curled fingers, her eyes closing. "Not too much," her eyes opened to gaze upon Kross, "just you, my dear saurian shifter."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVTipLWCkt
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhZNLw0QtH
Kross frowned at this. "Sorry but I'm not for sale."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMonxmSwkM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVglkIMjDm6
"Ma'am," Ivan pipped in. "I'm sorry but we don't sell our friends so maybe there is a gold amount you would like instead?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygL1qgvhsp
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOODJnsCDlJ
She looked to Ivan. "Gold is nice and I get that from sales but certain products cost money to obtain to make." She sat upright and sighed. "And I don't feel like passing up on free material but...if you want I'll give you his body back once I've removed what I want." She began to run her fingers through her hair casually, seemingly not noticing the looks of shock and disgust at her statement. "I mean...he might still be breathing despite the loss of blood."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuqMPpdz2m
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxwdLlL9kK
"What is wrong with you?!" Faerthurin exclaimed. "How can you talk like that so casually?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6hA2QI1t6
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oM1kGvp7r
"Because it's what I do, it's what I live for darling elf." She sat back in her seat. "I heard you want to get out of town as soon as possible so maybe to get your answers, hand over the reptile man so I can have more material to melt down and form into thread to make more clothing."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sxMWuTSMh
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ0GmxWyOY
"Well isn't she a charmer?" Jeminya asked sarcastically.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeZBXS3D4F
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyO1xHednQ
The snake woman turned her attention to Jeminya, narrowing her eyes into slits. "I could create strong bands for my bracelets from your horns and fangs, beast. Best to keep that pretty mouth shut before I raise my price."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg2AlK3gHX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROxLKdBR3v
Kross put his hand on his blade, ready to draw it. "You want to try threatening her again, snake?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDbvTc41mM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq0W914jq0
She turned her gaze sternly to the ranger. "How about I get some more interested that won't be so nice as me?" she hissed threateningly.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajAf94JJQ7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhfTmiT6EI
"I'd like to see you try." Kross dared.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkm5Jpg4fDm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3axGf8xMA
"Kross!" Faerthurin snapped.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMDWkONeoI
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gnhiJSqH0
"Don't dare her, please?" Jalerom finished quickly after Faerthurin.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9ybsBH1S2
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3UesOg9Qc
The woman stood up and opened her mouth, took a breath yet before she could shout her thoughts, clapping came from behind the group. They turned to look and watched a good looking man dressed in a simple shirt, pants, brown boots, a scarf tied around his neck, and a dust gray-yellow trench coat. "Bravo Crystal, bravo. You are such a great actress and are looking fabulous today."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCW27gcvKl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ImJFZCBt6
"What do you want Klarian? I'm busy." She hissed irritatedly.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC9iSPuogX
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPRG6INP0t
Klarian came up to and leaned on the stand. "Can't we just talk? I mean, you are always so busy that I never get to see you."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKSewA6Dq4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPU7skpBQ9
"Get to the point so I might have me two or three new pieces to process." She growled.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKFpDjiTQc
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTVn7jroIU
"Only in your dreams." Kross muttered tensely, ignoring the glare to 'can it' that Oin was giving him.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsOPwaDy8Z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjcnrht0Rr
Klarian sighed as he got closer and wrapped an arm around Crystal, pulling her in close. "Aren't you curious to how a group so mixed aren't killing each other, especially with a demon with them?" he whispered. Crystal looked the party over as Jeminya frowned to being called a 'demon' so bluntly. Klarian swiftly slipped a folded dress inside his coat just before Crystal returned her gaze to him, giving a nod.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ4RjeyoFq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfCJTB7lDL
"What's your theory for their lack of brutality to one another?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHsvmgmZmf
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1kJHWTrej
He motioned to the druid on her wolf. "She seems to be very powerful. Who knows, maybe using any part of them could taint your products." Crystal frowned, a little glint of fear starting to come to her eyes. "You'd be potentially giving outsiders the power to do what one person wants." He whispered slyly. "And think of how that would hurt your sales and bargaining ability for supplies." She held in a growl before slightly gasping as he turned and left her to bow before Rose. "Oh dear master, tell me what you want and I shall obey."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGFqLgAnTr
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUoWSzt2S9
"You-you traitor! Get them away from my stand!" Crystal snapped while backing up. "I don't need to get enchanted by some hex woman!"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROMzoeWNIS
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA2lDoOQTN
"Hey I'm not-" Rose was cut off as Crystal went inside along with a few other merchants who had overheard. She looked to Klarian confused.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6muv2wWB9v
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTijooDNhwc
"Did you use tame animals on him or something, Rose?" Amber curiously asked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsewxHJeif0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQpBg2wwrq
Rose shook her head. "Not that I remember." She answered then turned her attention to him. "What's going on with you? Klarian was what she called you, right?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun69BWXYMq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWGvheFc7y
Klarian stood up out of the bow, smirking. "I had to give a reason to save your skins."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyAfPUhzjJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65c6KOZeIj
Oin stepped forward. "Thank you for that. Now we will be on our way if you do not require anything for payment."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrGylYdoPp
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqbl5o2J1N
The group regathered and began to continue on. "You're looking for the leader of the yellow dragons, are you not?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyAPVWjuMm
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckHtEV29iD
This caused the group to stop. "What if we are?" Jalerom asked as he looked to Klarian, who was now nearing them.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVq5tEC7DL
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzAN9v0nJN
"Because you are looking for them and I just so happen to know where they are."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5feTHtNzj
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyLBXaUFm5
"How convenient." Kross commented suspiciously while folding his arms.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqywYhFkh1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbINFFnEad9
"Yes, very." Oin added dryly. "What would you require in payment?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetNwz06dKQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S7lPlqLIi
Klarian put his hands into his pockets, shrugging. "Just some company is all for a little time. I'll even offer you free lodging and take you to the nobility by the morning lights break."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nPFrtSv2Y
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPCpEnGxes
"...group chat." Kross said and the party huddled up with Jeminya dismounting. "I don't trust this guy."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0eqFhUeq8
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrWYewykVI
"Neither do I but he did sort of keep that woman from making us the days sale." Jeminya softly commented.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSlaOSxT5W
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7ykXHvT8h
"He may look untrustworthy but I bet he is honest on the inside." Ivan chimed in.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdLdj00qL5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszLoXn8nME
"He's wearing a trench coat. I don't know about you but often times when someone's wearing a trench coat, they aren't the good guy." Jalerom stated.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcqgVQ0b1Y
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hbLIA8Ym5
"Except in that one show but he was more the rival hero." Kross added.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NOBSLHtnv
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaoDZ94EIx
"Besides that, the point is I don't think we can trust him. I trust him less than I do Jaylen." Jalerom said quietly.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOxUYb6f6y
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAEJ0lw7Fv
"Hey, she hasn't hurt anyone outside of freaking Rin out." Kross said as the golden viper hissed displeased by the rouge's distrust of her.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkvYZVNhPn
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FdXx0vFEZ
Faerthurin looked towards the waiting Klarian. "I don't pick up that he's lying but I'm not sure he wouldn't not betray us either if we do trust him." She stated before looking back to her group members. Klarian took this chance to step his way closer.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB72dykxx4X
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vymnA4ckN
"Sure he might sell us or worse but he also might not do that either. Isn't it worth the chance to locate the leadership with someone who prevented a fight from breaking out?" Ivan reasoned.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdfK7859N4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboQct7QkUu
"You know what," Klarian butted in, resting an arm on Ivan's shoulder while he flashed a grin. "Little bardy boy here is right. And if I," he stood up and placed a hand on his chest, "do say so myself..." he took a step back. "This town is not a nice place for little party's all alone."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuwF4ZQIKq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hoTxkF5CC
Kross watched suspiciously. "We've noticed."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkapAJEYGeq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYWJFcpWEU
Klarian ignored the comment. "There are lots of twists and corners that could lead to the unknown~." He sang while motioning around them to all the side streets and alleyways. He approached swiftly and placed a hand on Faerthurin's upper arm. "Let me guide your way," she shrugged him off as Lucid tried to peck his hand but he removed it as he moved on. "And I'll be sure to help you through." He sang as he looked to Jeminya then Oin, Ivan, Rose, Jalerom, Amber and Kross while moving towards one of the side streets. "You could really use a friend out here and luckily for you..." as he sang he kicked a wall, causing hanging lanterns to ignite and light the way.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qrfrQLin7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCptzA2F9Z
Oin looked around curiously. "Does anyone else hear music?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RHWhIymMq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5AT6QtrKT
"I'll check for magic." Faerthurin stated and tried to cast her spell, sensing magic but the details kept escaping her as her mind kept wanting to listen to Klarian's song.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbjaEoVc10
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5AN8SH8fF
"I'm the friend that you need, when you're lost and don't know what to do." He motioned them forwards as his body moved almost as if he was dancing some to the catchy music. "I'm your pal, your amigo, useful and resourceful too!" he moved down another alley as the guard standing there moved aside. "And my help, you'll concede is a plus guaranteed~" the party followed, some impressed and others not at how he seemed to have influence over at least one guard.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPMlb3qERK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxq1MSQROO
"You can call and I'll come running, just follow my lead." Klarian smiled charmingly. "'Cause I'm the friend you need!"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KCBVWIvMD
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGQ1manDOK
"He's a friend, quite a friend." A woman sweeping her balcony off chimed in, causing the group to look over then to another person who spoke up.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KZlThL3TQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWTKRh1h1J
"He's a friend indeed." A man finished as he left his home.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RygsRl4bG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMazo3CfzT
Oin frowned yet continued to follow them. "I'm not liking this one bit." He quietly commented.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbS48HiCni5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4DZI8Ti5k
"I know, must be using the same kind of magic as the Nighttwist used on us before." Kross added as he also had noticed how into the song Rose, Lucid and Shiloh was. He also noted how Faerthurin, Ivan, Amber and Jem with Starjay were enjoying it but didn't seem as taken in as the others.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY5D6Hvz8T
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyavg9468ZO
"Best we can do is protect them." Jalerom stated and the other two nodded.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6LfxUwaDM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AuRLA4tgd
"You need a bud to spot the danger," he stopped them with his arms out, keeping them out of sight of three differently dressed guards passing by. He continued with them, turning as he grabbed a rock and threw it at a window. "A pal to stop the creep. A chum and not a stranger to assist." The window slammed shut on someone's hand that had been reaching out to try grabbing Rose's hair. Shiloh picked up the pace as farther ahead, Klarian pushed in a brick. "You need a bro who is cunning that can help you take the leap!" the group coughed and looked to see him enter the dimly lit passageway. "A friend who knows what's lying in the mist."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KqaQcDhws
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTUzosStpH
They followed and it soon opened up to another part of the town. He looked up to spot Amber moving down a different way. "Don't fear these darkened alleys, they're scary yes I know." He sang soothingly as she came up behind her to see her frozen in fear of several decent sized bugs. "Why you could use a friend," he placed one arm around her as a fire spell lit in his other palm. "To protect you wherever you go." He used the spell, taking out the bugs as they lunged to attack them.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbYuyAtsbx
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTsXGIe85V
"Thanks," Amber sighed heavily and he nodded, reuniting with the others as he approached Faerthurin. 757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFD8m7q0tZ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbIkXUL3YX
"And such a dazzling beauty~" he motioned to her as he gave a gentlemanly bow. "Covered in dirt and muck." Distaste entered his fallen tone on the last word. "But now your fate is changing," he pulled the new and lovely yet simple dress out, showing her as her eyes widened. "Now you are in luck 'cause I'm the friend that you need," he gave her the dress and turned, leading the way to a more open area. "When you're lost and don't know what to do. I'm your pal, your amigo, looking out for friends like you!"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqDjKKEXxQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6tofHiBpM
He smiled charmingly as they neared his home. "And my help, you'll concede is a plus guaranteed." He unlocked and opened the door for them as the doorman slept in his chair. "Just call and I'll come running, we'll say that's agreed..." once all were in, he moved to the doorman and slipped him a few coins. "Here, tell Devion the training grounds, by dawn. I have something that will magically free my collateral." Klarian whispered and the doorman gave a nod before closing his eyes again. Starjay stayed out with the doorman before flying up and landing carefully, getting comfortable on the flat roof.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxnPETJ3PB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tEwiRWirM
Inside the lower floor of the two story home. "Doesn't anyone find it odd he didn't follow us in right away?" Oin questioned only to get a few nods as the others ignored him.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qnAC06DQl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrT5RfqEWq
"He's probably tipping the doorman. Don't be so suspicious, Oin." Ivan said in his normal positive tone.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZThO5PaBT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXhI9Ab2Fw
Klarian entered quickly singing out the last of his lines as the music was nearing an end. "'Cause I'm the friend you neeeed!~"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3LuLGCaZR
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93CNBbi5AD
"He's a friend," Ivan, Faerthurin, Rose, Jeminya, Amber sang with Lucid cawing and Shiloh giving a bark.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuYrMdLET4
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRXjwLiPfs
"Quite a friend!" Amber quickly said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDJlYQdzIo
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT2fO9Y4oY
"He's a friend indeed!" they finished as the music died away while they followed him up to his quarters as the lower half was more of a nightly bar, which gave him income while the entire upstairs with the rooms was his to use as he wished.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAhGFQFiEK
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCfktoB8EF
They reached the top and he opened the door to a large room which was his, filled with some lovely crystals setting just so, allowing the sunlight to dance through them and cast a colorful light on the surface below them. "Welcome to my humble abode." He smoothly said as they entered.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCfQ8tPhqQ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgnXD1GudH
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxeADO7Rug
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJ2lFBZOrX
Faerthurin blinked and looked around confused. "Um...how did I get here?" she looked down at the dress. "And where did I get this dress from?" she asked with her mind feeling foggy in spots.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNjlbYnwaY
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOm83Vj9Vt
"It was given to you by Klarian. We," Oin motioned to himself, Jalerom and Kross, "think he used a charm spell, something like the Nighttwist. Also he got that dress likely from the vendor who wanted Kross."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ENQQD3Qtl
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWor5wZdNQ
Her face fell and twisted with disgust at the thought of what made the thread used for the material. "What is this made of?" she uneasily inquired.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmVbHLtIvV
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxc9tp6frK
"Don't worry, it's not saurian or dragon or anything else of the sort." Klarian spoke calmly in a matter-of-fact way while he walked over and flopped on his sofa. "It's made of plants. She sells clothing and accessories made from creatures but she also makes less expensive items from plant fiber."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2k3XEtNsgd
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC6PJsa1Oj
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogXQ93rL0Q
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nD7uzb3kJ
"She wouldn't be caught dead selling anything that was low quality, no matter what it's made from." Klarian pointed out as the others came around that had been under his charm spell. He pushed some short orange hair back that had come loose from his ponytail out of his sky blue eyes.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQsqPwRVRu
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpJNmeccVR
"So why did you help us and lead us here? You have to have a motive." Oin flatly stated in his stern tone while watching the man.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8HW5lbF8G
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6qJmtX0e1
"I already told you my motive." He groaned with a roll of his eyes. "I wanted some company for a little while and I said I would take you to meet the leadership by the morning's light, as their abode isn't too far from mine." Klarian said innocently as he looked to Oin. "Don't you trust a kind stranger?" Oin didn't answer this, only folded his arms and stared Klarian down who shivered before diverting his eyes away from the dwarf.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO04K04VJ0J
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxTmpmtaHm
Faerthurin looked the place over, taking in what he had before looking Klarian over while mentally going through what she had researched. Kross looked over to the elf sorceress and made his way over, carrying a unique clock in his hands he had picked up. "Something on your mind?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnNp08vrm1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRzEzhiWpD
"He's obviously a dragon, possibly part of the race we're looking for as they tend to be more drawn to crystals and stained glass...but I don't recall any information on them being able to use charm spells like what he used." She quietly answered with her sights staying on the relaxing man.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVbCnGsXt2
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YrKisxCfy
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2IT19wfFF
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE0qwjSYZM
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlN2AtzKgH
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK1pAMULwR
Klarian inhaled deeply with his head leaned back, eyes closed as he exhaled. "I can hear you two so just ask~" he calmly sang before lifting his head and opening his eyes, motioning for the pair to come over. "I'm not gonna bite because you ask me anything."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1KemOERZk
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEYmX31IwX
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNfndzg29z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4IsfF3PIs
Klarian rubbed his chin in thought. "Well I'm not really a half-breed as I'm not equally half and half." He began with a slight slyness to his tone. "I could be mostly one thing and a third another."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8y4NtT55n
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCSm32CDwG
Kross thought some. "Hmm it seems he may not be what he seems so we should probably just leave." He shrugged, "I mean, we have been here a while after all and all he wanted was company for a bit." He stretched and sighed with his tone being casual. "All he did was get lucky with that weak spell of his." He turned on his heel, making his way towards the door. "It wasn't nearly as strong as that tree a time back."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm3giWhYui
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X6eLq4186
Klarian's jaw fell for a moment before he quickly closed it and stood. "I'll have you know that I may be a third incubus but I am dang good with my charm spells!" he huffed, snorting a couple small sparks as his hands clinched snugly into fists. "You can't even cast magic as an archer." He pointed at Kross with his eyes set on the archer. "I bet you haven't even studied magic."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTVEiTLpTY
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsleFJOyUWI
Kross turned giving a small bow while sliding the clock back in its place, smirking. "And that, is how you get an answer on race."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr4An514g9
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpy7ohsgWL
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAcjU3Zrw7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDvOoXcwI1
During this Oin had been inspecting a desk area but didn't find much of interest, Rose had found an interesting book on dragons titled 'The Beginner's Introduction to Dragon Culture' and had flipped through it. She had looked up during the conversation between the trio and noticed the sparks. Jalerom had found and was looking over a picture after having put down scribbled notes involving money. "Hmm..." Ivan came over with Amber who was resisting to claim one of the collected treasures for a souvenir.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcVMCkWnnp
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC6ADTvZpz
"What you looking at?" Ivan looked at the picture of two males, looking like brothers. "Oh they look similar. Where do you think the younger brother is?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4mBqDjxd3
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ndfDl8Bm4
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6PEqPn9AT
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PvBu3f92r
The man got up and made his way over upon seeing the rogue with the picture frame. "Heh, that's an interesting question to ask someone but as you can see, no siblings here." He reached out and plucked the photograph out of Jalerom's hands. "Pictures are misleading sometimes."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxflqYDqBG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGr9v05buT
Ivan, Jalerom and Amber looked to him disbelieving of that statement. "So how come he looks like you? There looks to be a resemblance." Ivan prodded gently. "We all have family so hold old is your brother? You both look happy in that photo."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5gND1odYB
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovofda1L8X
Klarian inhaled and sighed as he looked to the picture and nodded. "Yea, we were until I messed up." He set the frame down on the stand it had been on. "He's currently in the guards care because of me not controlling my betting habit and not being able to fork up the coin I owe." He somberly said.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJuoAHtxMv
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA6UdZhirb
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAc1YK0czE
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8QpLL4dqq
"I've...sort of been making payments. I own this place and make some sales but when your alcohol prices go up, more of the money earned has to go to keeping it running and the lights on." He looked to Amber. "I can't raise drink prices too much or people will stop coming and then I'll really be in trouble."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN9JK0g8gy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSmqDKegU1
"That's not good. How much do you owe?" Jalerom inquired as he looked to the photo. "Maybe we can help? I mean, we do have a talented bard." Ivan nodded proudly.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegGgXKRMGy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUGa63hrSq
"But wait, you can use song to so why don't you use that to get money? Like singing and see if any patrons would pay you as they do bards?" Amber questioned with that realization.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzigmLCuCN8
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrWRVcHaPO
Klarian snickered and moved back over to the sofa and sat. "Yea right, like me trying to enchant them is going to get me money. If they resist it then they aren't gonna give up the dough. Besides," he sighed, "I'm roughly..." he rubbed the back of his neck, "a few thousand in debt to the battle grounds owner."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7xPeDU7u7
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloswx9X7hx
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshHu3oKrlS
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9pM14mzE3
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljitjtzmxY
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNvCe2M8HY
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIgkJ7fGJ6
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOrphsay15
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwNsa7XqCC
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gVZDMnFkP
"Our mission here is to meet with the leadership of the yellow dragons in order to ask for aid in defeating my sister, nothing more. But I also don't feel right about us leaving a family broken like this...even if it is his own fault."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYhUPFzvY5
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLVfr8NXkA
"Hey!" Klarian stood quickly. "I didn't put him up as collateral! I put up my home and the guards decided to take him instead." He snapped, baring a bit of fang as small patches of yellow showed on his hands and peeking up from under his scarf on his neck. "I don't know why they took him but I wouldn't put him up to settle any debt that is my own doing." He growled with his eyes locked with Jeminya's as the room's atmosphere began to tense.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OpBn27yJJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj1MLrVhrd
The dwarfen cleric coughed, breaking into the tension. "We do have a time restraint even if we don't know exactly how much is left." Oin said as he pondered this over.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OuzKWuHNJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhcrxRgjnY
Silence filled the room for a few moments up to a minute before it was broken. "I say we help him. Maybe there's some way we can clear his debt and reunite him with his brother." Kross suggested.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1REetQs3aE
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93zZy6pJdo
Faerthurin placed a hand on her hip as the other motioned in the air. "How do you plan on us doing that? Ivan's good but it would take days if not longer of him preforming at his best to possibly make a dent in this morons more than a thousand gold debt."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmzvMNM8yJ
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqfhBo7e7x
Kross shook his head. "No, no he said it was at a battle grounds. Maybe they'll let us show off our skill and if we're good enough, then his brother gets released along with the removal of his debts."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdvw9fKfk0
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIqAMtbvLV
Quietness fell once more as this was considered before Jalerom eventually spoke up. "That would make sense due to people making bets on who would win. We're pretty strong and could at least check it out on how the set up is here." He looked around, "um that is if everyone else agrees to us helping him out."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFijKFM3h7i
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYySJe67ZMW
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoX8wuEU0Z
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdLVny4wrF
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc6oxpBh59
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CwxwduDRQ
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FysnTLjsq
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrOf72H4lE
Rose had been staying quiet and looked down to Shiloh. "Depending on what we are fighting and how far it is required to go will depend on if I'm in or not on this." She flatly explained with some uncertainty.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKTvHkFX94
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5THGHIHUC
Oin sighed nodding. "I will help as well. It will be good for our skills and it will help someone who could be an alley in the future."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi2P8zIKcF
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBaBQbkW3U
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbLJRzRnct
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA8WI3mwUf
Klarian stared at them all shocked. "I didn't expect this at all. And you all aren't going to want money back in return?" they shook their heads no. "This...man now I feel bad for-" he stopped himself before completing that sentence.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8ex724wpM
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdqhGFvt9S
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWZsFYPigz
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGNrGcXBEc
Klarian waved a hand through the air to try dismissing it. "Oh nothing, nothing! Just a stray thought!" he gulped as the eyes on him did not look the least bit impressed or swayed. "Uh..." he stood and stretched, giving a yawn. "Man would you look at the time. We should really sleep if we are to wake early and get to the battle grounds to put that plan into motion, night!" quickly he moved to push everyone out of his room so they could go to the four other rooms.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaj9a0MQcN
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43DD8meAsu
Once they were out and the door was shut, Jalerom looked back at the door with a straight eye look. "He was planning on selling us out at the battle grounds to the owner wasn't he?"757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YKruRazMy
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwSw533ck0
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTpGP3pQZG
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhi6kkiBAeF
"Of course with our luck." Jalerom sighed. "So...how are we splitting up with rooms?" he moved to look inside one of the four. "This one has four beds in it."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDPmjoNFGj
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbkvhkG2zk
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY090yxI6H1
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CpFlth9xa
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡateHRKCJMz
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzg2IQNfrr
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiWnrINZE3
757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsECo9pBE5u
Discussion took place and the group split up to go to their agreed upon room assignments, hoping for a good rest up before the morning.757Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGKAzbWbbb
