Veo, the satyr, was leading the mule right around the bin as Alice moved up the street to join the elves. Veo placed his crossbow in its holster upon the side of the mule so it would be quick to grab and pulled out when the time had come for him to use it. Hopefully not so soon when they finally left. He would lead the way to the destroyed wagon, from there Alice would take over the hunt. Her abilities to track were indeed impressive, even among the guards. The guards probably just thought of that out of respect for her dead father ,but then again maybe not. He would know if there is any truth to it today. If she does prove to be very useful and helps me find that gem, perhaps I will take her to the lake and she will find out why the gem was so valuable. He patted the head of the mule and then quickened the pace. 

       "You're all here, that's good." He said nodding to each one of them. "The old man said the attack occurred five miles up the road,... damn bandits were pretty gutsy for that. I wonder....." He said pausing and then shaking his head. He pulled the mule along taking lead. A guard watched them as they left. Veo just simply nodded to the guard out of respect and courtesy. With that they were outside the village of Reisui and out into the dangerous frozen tundra of Dosei. He wondered if the attack on his wagon was intentional.... and so close to the village. It was as if they knew what package it was carrying. Then again, it could just be bandits being stupid like always. He took a glance towards Alice, he then began to wonder if this specific group was anywhere responsible for the death of her father. If so then it looks like she would also have a bone to pick with them. He looked away and to the front. His eyes were on the road and they would not leave it until they reached the wagon.

        Eirika felt a odd difference in temperature as they left the village. Perhaps the village was a little warmer due to the chimneys and the warmth coming off the people compared to out here. Out here where the light would fade and disappear once the sun goes down. She simply reached up and grabbed her wings to pull them around her for some sort of warmth. The feathers were so soft and comfortable. Hopefully they would keep her warm. As she did this a feather came loose and began to float down towards the ground. She did not even notice it had come loose. She wondered how far they would have to travel to find these bandits and take back what belonged to the village. Well what belonged to Veo anyways. She figured there was something personal about the wagon. Then perhaps Veo just didn't like being robbed. She turned her head to look to Alice and smiled. "Your a hunter here right? So, side from wild boar what else will we be expecting in these woods?" She asked.

       Elduin's eyes shifted as his ears perked up a little so he could listen to Alice's response. He wanted to know as much as he could from the woods outside of Reisui as he could possible. To know about any problems or troubles before they occurred.
