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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouaxrjoucf

"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctCUMlruW0
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wLbZRgmXH
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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzetD6S9Kw
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMfxsTqHAO
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGSrtIVNJB
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVwjmmz8Tx
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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweYI8kQzsK
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpl3DfZy4V1
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4O5bbTLF1
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXGsPTJLD6
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v7oGjuqhg
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEftw3F7IM
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdN0cXZ7PH
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7qyYAP5oR
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapxJF5vtWY
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvPV97BMnh
"But you trusted us enough from the beginning." Amber stated as she turned her attention to Rose.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNm7PxbUCA
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFfPWyBeit
"That was because it was necessary. Meeting these creatures, unless we are trying to recruit more allies, aren't really necessary."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaM4YATvY2
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58oRgeu7LJ
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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7MucYFuoP
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGS49B3LHe
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHA6t9vxgYu
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ8pdveKW4
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnZIsM5LyW
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4Wm6nTyGr
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2aiVl4Lrq
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsFEWSS4Ii
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxE1quxB1D
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUlzJyofzi
"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?"828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQgZ8HV2jB
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWQxCb5tD8
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN68Bm60eZ
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOTLmUI189
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?"828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtyrVZ2JPM
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41peFXw6r0
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknCPCMNlac
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoGdDCMPIF
"Of course she would." Kross muttered under his breath. "She's always got to be two steps ahead in the game."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB9v7a4y5M
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gGCwmlTUC
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM1sBdkRCt
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4MDusBHS1
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wTzVrT8AX
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqUwEqYnxZ
"Unique how?" Kross asked with a raised eyebrow as he looked over his shoulder to the dark elf sorceress.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgHz28nanu
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8Vat3SJZi
"Unique in that we may want to avoid being arrested or somehow captured." Faerthurin stated in her blunt tone.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QYavoQ1qF
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexizMJ2rB6
There was silence until Jeminya spoke up quietly. "I'm going to take a guess at this, slave market?"828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVRkeiWYTa
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoEYkWbQJW
Faerthurin nodded. "Yes with different races that aren't humans."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjeYhsdatx
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd99ob3WYLN
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe9vHyd4Ry
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWcEqXff4u
"Pretty much."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWL5wxnIRz
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgKH605tWV
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv3Bh1UbQ5
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahULAPtuBZ
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjMEYkBcSQ
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVV29rl1xl
"Maybe should the royalty here live in a castle, palace or mansion. Does anyone know what dragon leadership lives inside of?" Jalerom questioned.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHS2p65J981
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpI9k9keUCo
"What else would nobility with money live in?" Kross countered.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvGfXkyMCs
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBRm1ne5cT
"Wouldn't some dragons find caves fitting or a structure made of stone for security for their hoarded goods?" Rose asked curiously.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1GFpRPFX9
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmH3Z2QkDU
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."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXQ0u5z7n0
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P896LpRe1
"That is why I said some dragons, not all."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqC26hqtBiz
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwjIIVO1fp
"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.828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCFAm9WJ2g
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRadEM9Tt0
Ivan smiled with a hand patting his chest. "Leave it to me! I can reason with anyone easily."828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjMTjgEPAo
828Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKsmkgFbzS
"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.
