Kieren watched quietly as Mike and Ashlinn talked. Ashlinn seemed to have barely finish her sentence before Mike had run ahead. Kieren contemplated running herself but she was entranced by the bellowing dark clouds in the distance, her face remained at peace, but her heart was in a frenzy. She could only imagine what sort of damage this wave of Cimmerians might do, and the fact that her sister would be among the mess only upset her even more. Kieren was good at shoving these thoughts to the back of her mind, She knew fear wasn't going to help and would only hinder her performance for the future. If she is going to remain a leader she has to stay focused and keep her heart out of her head. 

Meanwhile in the practitioners tent Felix is keeping guard by peacefully sleeping by the flap of the entrance. His tranquil thoughts and dreams were only interrupted by the whiskers of a winged lion agitating his face. Felix mewed uncomfortably, lifting only one of his heads to turn himself around. At this point it was no use, the lion had already caught his scent and was nosing his body excitedly. Felix, now wide awake, attempted to move himself away but to no avail was already caught delicately between the lions jaws and placed outside the tent. Felix growled lowly, but this warning of agitation was hardly noticed by Bastian. The lion simply tried to paw the small cat affectionately, while Felix kept attempting to escape. 

Now arrived at the Mercenaries camp, Kieren took a look around. She couldn't locate Mike at first but trusted he was doing his job. She looked to Ashlinn who said she would set up the supplies. Kieren nodded in approval giving her a small smile [b][color=powderblue]"Thank you, I'll take a look around, I need to talk to some of the others anyway. I'll be back shortly!"[/color][/b] she waved slightly as she headed off looking for Erika. She wondered if her sister already made it here, they all needed to meet soon. It was getting dark, and who knew how close the new wave would be by morning.
