[b]"We'll wait on you to head out then."[/b] Ru loitered a moment while Darthalia approached, observing the map to get an idea of where they would rendezvous in case something came up. The area wasn't one Ru was remotely familiar with, so he would be largely dependent on that map, or those who carried it. If worse came to worse he could probably start marching in the general direction of Meridian and hope he had enough food. Ru shoved those dark thoughts to the back of his mind and set out to gathering the rest of the Jackals. 

Looking around, Eddy was addressing the main group, and Ordore talking to Darthalia, which left Misala and Nero to gather. Of the two, Nero looked the more approachable, so Ru headed in his direction, coming to stand before the boy. [b]"You are joining us on the scouting mission, correct? I am Ru, master of procurement."[/b] He said formally, using the euphemism for thief and bowing slightly. Nero had seemed rather formal when introducing himself, so Ru returned the favor, and besides, calling himself a thief had seemed a bit improper at the time. When he spoke next, the formal tone fled, and Ru's voice returned to its normal, cheerful self. [b]"We've just gotta grab miss assassin lady Misala over there then head out."[/b] Ru gestured towards where Misala was standing. [b]"We'll be staying at a nearby town to gather supplies before venturing into the wilds. Any questions?"[/b]
