(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)666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLpFJYopV3

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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OUQBWzmb3
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnHqVRU0PO
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhscz9ghEK
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk8KCHTmoL
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn7mW5Olpi
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw03KQInVfB
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5vKOs3nlt
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Za2s2JCOZ
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7UxXGve5t
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOw2c4rOWEi
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V4dfId0LG
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWqlCeIWCT
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOAum3lEXH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm5NOi9Zdb
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ828Gwn9wbf
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYXJKdmN23
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vdiMqmh20
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3koupFPDh
"But you trusted us enough from the beginning." Amber stated as she turned her attention to Rose.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG2gxfj8OV
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ752cF1lR98
"That was because it was necessary. Meeting these creatures, unless we are trying to recruit more allies, aren't really necessary."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Skr1Hvxbk
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFlrlfVf7V
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2FPEEUrgr
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIP6WO3cHd
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIDUiA14q6
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXngcNULO87
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdptrAk7ao6
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsxIJDead0
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyy921ng696
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV6cLUv2an
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXUDEFL2QR
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm5y69QX0v
"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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zzd8Jhxde
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiKMl7P51L
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczBqxqE3Kg
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsqXq3kMEl
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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnPpJNZiXQ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtDUCYQ3Wt
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhngOa7IXB9
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡter1Wzs6Wc
"Of course she would." Kross muttered under his breath. "She's always got to be two steps ahead in the game."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnWOHVT2I2
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGEgtq5reg
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6y6JTLVKNW
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy6soudu2w
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj8nTWoQB1
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlWtADMijL
"Unique how?" Kross asked with a raised eyebrow as he looked over his shoulder to the dark elf sorceress.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcSBRCKIOI
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV9nKVfE9t
"Unique in that we may want to avoid being arrested or somehow captured." Faerthurin stated in her blunt tone.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWGW3sohBz
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkqda1FN7U
There was silence until Jeminya spoke up quietly. "I'm going to take a guess at this, slave market?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOxomQvHB6
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjUA25Xqsd
Faerthurin nodded. "Yes with different races that aren't humans."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8QixHbsth
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaWCQiMutU
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nN4SMclXZ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU0OTT4NXp
"Pretty much."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCV1w8tMie
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBN5fihtfAj
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM38wWFFXm
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGP71PFaUO
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLKnY8HIxd
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmyIt52GwG
"Maybe should the royalty here live in a castle, palace or mansion. Does anyone know what dragon leadership lives inside of?" Jalerom questioned.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSwFqlBWoy
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoucgQxO85x
"What else would nobility with money live in?" Kross countered.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPUWjk1Pmb
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYCnhHZKGr
"Wouldn't some dragons find caves fitting or a structure made of stone for security for their hoarded goods?" Rose asked curiously.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8W173QZg5
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPbMLQArlQ
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwj6nundW49
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9eE5ZrHIU
"That is why I said some dragons, not all."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJawpKlDuX
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9diXY6wPR
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQbyq10OCA
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2BwmOpgcO
Ivan smiled with a hand patting his chest. "Leave it to me! I can reason with anyone easily."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8C28cNrxhY
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY9VcXu8ts
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUQyk2bvDK
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeQdbrxwdE
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYaFVieM7h
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37kEl0k4YV
"Looks can be deceiving." Rose muttered quietly as she started looking around. "I know from personal experience."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQKsZ1JFBc
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPWBkAjApL
"Hello sir, how are you today?" Ivan nicely asked the guard.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqU8ojuHB1
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfMIV96pCC
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1V81RGOs1
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLilUDlz5y
"Oh thank you! So I was wondering if you could dire-"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YKtmnquZF
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtoizajW9s
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsVIlbNs4Q
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP16wHZrnF
Jalerom moved up and pulled Ivan back. "Sorry to interrupt."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yeSMunJIH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEduQaHPXil
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5eWg01oSx
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KNyDv92qB
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMueO9zqbu
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFwcRs09t1
"I could always give it another shot." Ivan suggested.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1MMeXZUAw
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTYddFDIYs
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomTkcNFo9o
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hZZaancPt
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy3H6YITGE
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8qiDCGvxF
"Hello to you as well ma'am. You have many fine wears here." Kross said politely which brought her to smile.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYzbHog54H
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAShlevuLg
"Oh we're here on business and could use help finding someone."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB1Zu6PhNF
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh24iptQZZj
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMTYitBsW9
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2TA2x7kAt
Kross eyed her with unease as he took a small step back. "What will information, should you have it, cost to get it?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2OuJj81xM
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o9q856iHz
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQwVbBNNQH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfXMXT2Qjm
Kross frowned at this. "Sorry but I'm not for sale."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6yTXl7ORi
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2bc5n6G8f
"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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SKgoHx06A
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE8UX3Mlz9
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny5kKd4Qje
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoU9HmmmFr
"What is wrong with you?!" Faerthurin exclaimed. "How can you talk like that so casually?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaW7nAmb33
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjbClpBofe
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyXk92QOZO
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44cK4Upcp1
"Well isn't she a charmer?" Jeminya asked sarcastically.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVVsmvLI3v
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXB2SCRqhL
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDYNZYWwru
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJfk5uChe9
Kross put his hand on his blade, ready to draw it. "You want to try threatening her again, snake?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OUeg2O3gE
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfdK3TS5qY
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiMaUiuAWl
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5o7gBCAmj
"I'd like to see you try." Kross dared.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXzcLC8LnG
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgX0eM3oDo
"Kross!" Faerthurin snapped.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiltlLfsN42
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQd3EJime7i
"Don't dare her, please?" Jalerom finished quickly after Faerthurin.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25cN0WmWHm
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOooRKP8vmL
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykcEEc1UWJ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEATYImP70
"What do you want Klarian? I'm busy." She hissed irritatedly.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReh0YiSHO1
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojtxkXPbPa
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEJs51Oo5m
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWC43otHPCK
"Get to the point so I might have me two or three new pieces to process." She growled.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWnRU46B3j
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaGoCACmCC
"Only in your dreams." Kross muttered tensely, ignoring the glare to 'can it' that Oin was giving him.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7Qn106SWd
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDySGpyAiGl
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qcn8TWYsH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfjX30cnrW
"What's your theory for their lack of brutality to one another?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKyOVSdnQk
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnva1GIQaHw
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMlYbk2lea
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYJ7yleHJ9
"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!"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5rPoNWWTf
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW4SalfXl3
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo1oO7q9C6
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gwjMU6U6O
"Did you use tame animals on him or something, Rose?" Amber curiously asked.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZaUw0rbNp
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiedNHHr7nA
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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw84bBsr0S4
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxFgsuG9Mj
Klarian stood up out of the bow, smirking. "I had to give a reason to save your skins."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RW2lurF0U
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1NECaazRL
Oin stepped forward. "Thank you for that. Now we will be on our way if you do not require anything for payment."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPD3tn003t
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ61FsQi9Rm
The group regathered and began to continue on. "You're looking for the leader of the yellow dragons, are you not?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaDOHVFv0G
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVRuQaOSkJ
This caused the group to stop. "What if we are?" Jalerom asked as he looked to Klarian, who was now nearing them.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy2jX94C5B
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N4ScKtPIt
"Because you are looking for them and I just so happen to know where they are."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9FjfyKjnK
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eVrrUciwK
"How convenient." Kross commented suspiciously while folding his arms.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8JidXqhj2
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4Lw9i5g4g
"Yes, very." Oin added dryly. "What would you require in payment?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjtp7rEvi3
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zIMTKtSyJ
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbPAHyhALO
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh5sMurBQQ
"...group chat." Kross said and the party huddled up with Jeminya dismounting. "I don't trust this guy."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbas5406EEI
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YpF96UnAE
"Neither do I but he did sort of keep that woman from making us the days sale." Jeminya softly commented.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFtqe0TqFr
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGwPx4by4l
"He may look untrustworthy but I bet he is honest on the inside." Ivan chimed in.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAGJrIsYcU
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5joes2SStf
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjbxqODSIM
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUU1SPReaA
"Except in that one show but he was more the rival hero." Kross added.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb0No7Dzpa
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiN0Mu4UZGO
"Besides that, the point is I don't think we can trust him. I trust him less than I do Jaylen." Jalerom said quietly.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeLCWU8GKR
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4scJxaQ65
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTb63hCWHf
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoGXXG2vS8
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9FqpeeJvI
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g4SLyNHjm
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6mgAZNRVL
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro7cFpQ1Ra
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDATnrhrdb
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn5lTDplrt
Kross watched suspiciously. "We've noticed."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2oSZgZ8Wb
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eoPbkCf6i
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguHD608bni
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagUu0W49Gs
Oin looked around curiously. "Does anyone else hear music?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDIICC5r9p
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4Hv4E0zeX
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEFUZpsuxs
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8aWJIq6im
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsF6M6JiKh
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46cdLSPtYX
"You can call and I'll come running, just follow my lead." Klarian smiled charmingly. "'Cause I'm the friend you need!"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzxyAbsBuj
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcDbc382q2
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡospvwQWA5I
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZnC10GkC5
"He's a friend indeed." A man finished as he left his home.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDARvn0ww3z
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhYtYMrHlk
Oin frowned yet continued to follow them. "I'm not liking this one bit." He quietly commented.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkzwFCGXMO
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyfNI76YuN
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalNyqwiQPs
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGikIhSlIY
"Best we can do is protect them." Jalerom stated and the other two nodded.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXkRGD4aZA
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOd1XKtdA1
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPRZOTfxXM
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxgngWRk6c
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pvj4SQmYn
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfTHC3A5E7
"Thanks," Amber sighed heavily and he nodded, reuniting with the others as he approached Faerthurin. 666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJZIcXyfML
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe69Lx09hib
"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!"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvRSImrc1p
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGnJHx8tZH
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKLZbkwb2U
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7rsSPrabS
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuZ6312TcL
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvwd1BqvDD
"He's probably tipping the doorman. Don't be so suspicious, Oin." Ivan said in his normal positive tone.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdhC3Mg6z6
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYFNJ2ERls
Klarian entered quickly singing out the last of his lines as the music was nearing an end. "'Cause I'm the friend you neeeed!~"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepCb3V2VT3
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDT7XaiRNg
"He's a friend," Ivan, Faerthurin, Rose, Jeminya, Amber sang with Lucid cawing and Shiloh giving a bark.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS2VaF2zlu
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGQQ4AgmWl
"Quite a friend!" Amber quickly said.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxzMXFArjB
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbXe1VSz7r
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYnvYGyzh1
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeEewOjQox
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW6NzigllN
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8MYi7xrbm
"Oh wow...so many shiny things..." Amber said softly as she looked at the crystals hanging and sitting around with widening eyes.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl1vEWtav8
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYZSYT0qfi
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgBXltfA5s
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tAPHi1qde
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UFKtD2lTG
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ712s0stROU
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhKWzfYKeY
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg5TXHXpTr
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6nnVZrJMI
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOJU8SmMKk
"It looks well made for someone who sells it cheep." Faerthurin commented.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQvjupfgqr
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1U2N7gO5D
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0qH6qhWU3
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyyWNKnDqu
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfA4RVacqA
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7ezKpl1NS
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzqbmMlMsI
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMRttUkeVi
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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv4TtcKTD4
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaI1A3eYZD
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1vPiUEOIC
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEO5bs5hoL
"Could he be a half-breed?" Kross questioned.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf7ZGIuSux
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pjygj0Fga
"Maybe, I know succubus, incubus and other creatures can use charm magic like that."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtvrHGIJJE
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxi4kdxeXt
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmi1ZVL5wg
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8B1Nrp1ev
"Then what are you?" Faerthurin bluntly asked as she kept her distance, having folded up the dress and stored it in her pack.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeiasPkBb4
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TgcTn2A9a
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnVDV4Fvlc
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7asflzFkM
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7KIVKXDZW
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KJTuu7gfN
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheYzMn3VtP
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6TVxON1x0
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzhluRcuPY
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOUWPAXtR8
Faerthurin smirked. "Clever ranger, very clever." She said pleased and a bit impressed.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqCB5nBQyl
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfYqa2u4lD
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYlNRoc4rU
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjULCzSrEp0
"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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdiOJL76vi
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIXKC3kRO6
"No idea." Jalerom looked over to Klarian. "Hey, do you have a little brother?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaZYvh4nVg
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYHAr0p0K9
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCP2JHx1t8P
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa87Ntehyzr
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz1YqPDxT4
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCxSvAJzDV
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZKjR9W0yy
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayblF3F5jh
"So they took him to get you to pay your debt? Why haven't you been paying or have you?" Amber asked curiously.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nZD6aZkTv
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcBHONEXoG
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2ve2hhzlg
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaiqIttk04
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67bI3DQeKg
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRziBzRnp2V
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipQYBzIWva
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L6LRaDymf
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8aseIsbK2
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuQy2iMRVZ
"I think we've found someone with a worse betting habit than Kross." Faerthurin dryly remarked.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Jol9qkhCJ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg18gnBUdMD
"Hey! I resent that comment." Kross huffed. "I haven't lost any money in any gambling, thank you very much."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6bG8TnCEV
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctKAvXdUh7
"Maybe not money but you do bet a lot when you take unneeded risks in battle." Faerthurin countered, locking a glare with Kross.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYaHbR58SK
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8vgR5YsSw
Oin listened and sighed, making his way over to where Jeminya had sat to observe and take things in. "Your plans after all this?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEYAoA9XFv
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20KBa7I18G
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWC0WbiKac
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7idOmWuGA
"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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnulFEdT48
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17LTYhuUZL
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlEwpkbJNG
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4jlq9d9a7
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwUF3k8XlR
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpReNP7OKtb
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXQGi1dTpJ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kOu7v5tIK
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE0P4dJDLo
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfgImgAkiK
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvncfViWpIE
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP68jl7Ax7T
"I say we help him out since he helped us out." Ivan stated with a nod.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtqZsmf0vH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSncj507se
"I suppose we could help him out, so long as we can get aid in return." Faerthurin said with an exhale.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWLfxdw0lz
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsx3b49aPg
Amber nodded, "as we aren't going to be arrested and caged again, I'm up to help fight for his brother's freedom."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjVEOgOKHj
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GTvdupe2M
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOiLdGXRqQ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IhUiDrOiV
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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOWX8nhkZr
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4myiXa867Z
"Then it seems to be unanimous." Jeminya said as she stood, looking to Klarian. "We will help you with reuniting with your brother."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNlWlaGPDo
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaI6dJUV4nS
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CbWfgZwLK
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAeY3xaW1l
"Bad for what?" Jeminya asked strongly as he tried to laugh it off.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eU0xl2Bhw
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfaswJOjdU
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iAAbD38OQ
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6fuE6lpfd
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?"666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSsqEyTjJy
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lQN4eEYIp
"Yup, likely so." Kross flatly replied.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDXrNDxWoS
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhP67Z6tcA
"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."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarN3VcChPx
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZOmTSEBAY
Rose got off Shiloh and checked the second. "This one has three."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6MBvmcJey
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8w7e8XNLV
Faerthurin checked the third. "This one has three as well."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc08e6jqhH
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w1z02fqTj
Jeminya looked in the fourth. "This one has two beds in it."666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDSFb4JgRA
666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNIeW7NGTZ
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.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1D3pmE0Xq5
