They had been scouting for the majority of day's light, forested embankments on either side as the party blazed a trail through thick woods swathed in darkening shadows. Unlike the others Gerhard was more of a simple folk, the little fjords, the wild creatures, and the earth beneath his feet had kept him at ease during their travels. Although, darkness loomed on the horizon, the large man could feel that a time of great action would be upon them.

Silus, the leader of their company, was a man of honor, of impressive skill. And while their ideals had not aligned, Gerhard respected him for his position. The others, he hadn't too much time to get to know any of them. 

The count, Salezenathor, a name that the bulky the man could not pronounce all too well, he appeared to be a man of staunch personable skills. As the oldest of their party, Gerhard had a certain respect for the count as well.

Recca, the young priest had given them all a blessing before their journeys onset. While this was a very noble and kind action, Gerhard had never truly been a man of piousness. Nor one to respect the authority of those who see themselves as holier than thou. Fortunately Recca hadn't seemed arrogant as far as he could see. And so no ill will was boded between the two.

Ty'ura, the youngest and only female of the group. She was short, yet had certain strength of will about her. She was young, yet not foolish in her ways. Gerhard had not known many women as more than care takers, thus Ty'ura had appeared to him as quite different. Although he has yet enough interaction with the young warrior has been had for him to truly gauge her.

The brothers, Caleb and Llynn Brèvedent. The pair had a certain admirable strength of character. However the detachment they had exhumed led Gerhard to believe they had faced innumerable hardships, yet they had prevailed. He was unable to discern much from the two as they had often appeared secretive. Perhaps they were hiding something dark? Gerhard could not know.

These thoughts had coursed through the heavy man's mind, distracting him from what would lie ahead of the party. Although he soon was shocked back into reality as he bumped into the count ahead of him. They had stopped, their weapons drawn. Silus spoke as if they were nearing their targets. This unnerved Gerhard, the prospect of such violence had seemed frightening to a degree. However there are things that a man must do, he adjusted his dark green suspenders connecting his pants of the same colour to the simple white shirt upon his torso, before doing the same to the thick metal gauntlets resting on his meaty hands.
