Ba'al was slightly amused by the girl in the suit, figuring she would provide good amusement for thew future, should she make it that far and keep her witty tongue about her. He could use a verbal sparring partner. Hopefully it wouldn't get too annoying though. A sit was, his attention was drawn to Sorin, who released a seething cloud of rolling shadow, apparently concentrated malice or despair or something, that would find the dragon. And it certainly seemed to elicit a reaction on the three paths they had to follow. a clod of purple ash and smoke stained the sky from the mountain peak and there was a tremendous roar, as well as a clamoring of predators that had Ba'al reaching for his Zat'nik'tel. And then a dragon showed up. Ba'al was about to speak against killing the thing, but fortunately Saber stopped the girl who had the Pokemon that fired ice. For one, the roar they just heard had obviously come from that, and for another, if they were supposed to hunt it in this wide terrain then it wouldn't come directly to them. Fortunately, they all seemed to calm down now, and that was for the better, besides the lady wearing what looked like a plane fuselage on her legs with no pants showing up. Given changing circumstances, he re evaluated his plan and options. "Indeed. Since that roar indicated where the dragon was, and now that we know there are other, less gentle creatures here, we don't actually need to split up, unless some would prefer. there is always the possibility of discovering more than just the dragon here." The declaration by the Viking as he pulled out some strange illusions made Ba'al chuckle audibly. Geez, he would fit right in as a System Lord. All he was missing with the certainty in his Godhood, and being evil. He then spoke up on his own attributes. "I prefer to fight with my mind," he pointed out. "However, for defense, I have this." He pulled out his [url=http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110817005731/stargate/images/e/e7/ZatGun-Open-transparent.png]Zat[/url] and deactivated the safety, the head of the snake snapping up with a 'tch' and a rising buzz as he showed it off to those there.
