Gwen
Gwen smiles and shakes her head at Rowena's antics. She would hate to see her sister disappointed when they went on this journey and someone got hurt, or they found that the wizard wasn't even real. Tyrion needed clerics and healers, not fairytales and blind faith. -
Jord
(Posted a little doodle of da boi on my art instagram)
"Is there something .. wrong?" Jord asks tentatively, finding that his voice comes out in a shrill whisper. He bends down to observe whatever Quill is looking at. "See the way the bugs move, Jord?" Quill asks him.
Jord tries to see the significance of the bugs Quill is pointing at, but Jord doesn't notice any erratic behavior. "No...?" Jord says uncertainly. "Do you see the scratches?" Quill asks, pointing to a tree's roots. Jord squints. "I don't..." He says. Jord knows that Quill is on about something, but Jord doesn't have the tracking skills and hunting ability that Quill has. -
Ma'Tonzi
Ma'Tonzi giggles at Rowena's comments. She hopes that this Faber person won't be so aggressive for much longer. Like it or not, they all had one common destination.
On another hand, it felt good to stretch her wings. She was still a bit tired from the horse fiasco last night, but atleast she could fly out and up in the open air again. -
Quill
Quill shakes his head at Jord. "Nevermind. Nevermind. Must be wrong. Must be fresh. Could just be coincidences. Still, still..." Quill's words got more and more unintelligible past this point. He seemed to be making calculations and comments only he could understand. -
Faber
Faber tries to keep eyes on the fae, but Rowena flies too fast for them to see. Faber finds themself turning around in a circle and being very confused, and Rowena laughs behind Faber.
Embarassed, Faber takes out two great hammers. "You dare mock me?!" They say, pointing one of the weapons at Rowena menacingly. -
Rowena
Rowena squints at the hammers, seemingly unafraid. She didn't fear looking death in the face, an attribute of hers that made her family worry for her greatly. It was just like the night she saw Quill pointing an arrow at her heart.
"Hey, Fabe, is that dwarven made? Bit too heavy looking for God's Eye... I'm thinking that it was forged in the Yellowsky Volcano. The carvings also have to be fae work. Quite a beaut, those weapons are," Rowena comments with a small smile. -
Gwen
Gwen rolls her eyes. She knew what her sister was doing. As long as Rowena keeps Faber distracted she could make Faber decide to not maul her head in..
And what better way to do that than to talk about something the Vanshires knew way too much about; weaponry. It was the family business. Something Rowena and Faber could find common ground in.
Gwen flies by Ma'Tonzi to watch over her. Ma'Tonzi was small, a bird or a hypogriff or a pegasus or something could easily decide to snatch her up. -
Jord
Jord, sensing that Quill was in his own little world now, quietly walked away. He spotted a nice patch of shade and sat down and began to play with the critters that slowly accumulated around him.
Jord's favorites were always the butterflies. They were so small and delicate. Hunted down by predators and witches for potions. Yet, here they were. Existing. Beautiful. Safe, if only for now. -
Ma'Tonzi
Ma'Tonzi saw Gwen looking out for her and giggled. What a strange fae. She claims to dislike all of Rowena's friends, yet Rowena wasn't the only one Gwen had been protecting this whole time.
Ma'Tonzi flies around Gwen curiously, poking and nudging her occasionally. -
Quill
Quill was pacing around in a circle, murmuring to himself. Disagreeing with himself, making theories with himself, proving points to himself. Eventually he pauses and sets his scorpion Arrowhead down to explore. Arrowhead immediately scurries over to Jord's horde of animal compatriots. -
Faber
Faber hesitates, a bit taken aback by all of the accurate information that the little fae girl had just spewed. Then she growls. "First of all, don't call me Fabe. Second, how does little fae know so much about weapon craft?" Faber asks.
Rowena shrugs innocently. "Ever heard of the Vanshire Empire?" She asks. Faber widens their eyes. At this point Faber has lowered the warhammers. Rowena's plan worked. -
Rowena
Rowena continues. "Me and my sister are part of the family. She's due to inherit the busines. Well... that is, after we find the wizard and cure our little brother of his sickness." Rowena can tell that Faber is more interested in the weaponry side of her story, though.
She flies over by Faber. "Hey, what other weapons do you have? Can I examine them? If there's some that are mysteries to you I can tell you their brand and make," Rowena offers. -
Gwen
Gwen stiffens at Ma'Tonzi's proddings. "Hey, keep still. I'm just watching you," she says sternly. Ma'Tonzi flies down by Gwen's belt that had some kind of weapon sheathed and before she can even touch it Gwen swats her away. "Stay away from that!" She snaps, before realizing her mistake.
"Oh.. uh... sorry Tonzi. Sorry. Sometimes I forget how small you are, are you all right?" Gwen whispers at the fairy. -
Jord
Jord sees Arrowhead approaching and looks at Quill hesitantly. Quill gives a flippant motion of approval. Jord then hums a calm tune so that the scorpion won't be eager to attack him.
"Hey, little fella. Are you poisonous?" Jord asks quietly. As if in answer, Arrowhead shakes his stinger menacingly. "Oh, so cute!" Jord gushes. -
Ma'Tonzi
Ma'Tonzi looks offended that Gwen would swat at her. Swat at her, as if she were just some annoying bug. She crosses her arms and flies back to the ground, ignoring Gwen.
All for some dumb weapon. Sure, she was a Vanshire, but Ma'Tonzi didn't think that Gwen would value protecting an item over a fairy's wellbeing.
