[sub]The Town Of Orobo[/sub][/center]

	Jenso was lead by Pij until the edge of the forest was in sight, then, without hesitation, she looped around and dove back into the forest, tweeting happily all the while. With Pij and Lark behind him, Jenso was on his own yet again, but would what he'd learned help him at all? Only time would tell.

	Several hours down the road and a village was rising over the horizon. It looked similar to Arcadia, but it was built inside of what looked to be a crater. The grass on either side of the path ended at a seared line of dirt, and turned to gravel and rock. A large sign read 'Welcome to Orobo' and several people could be seen in the distance. The village was small, and built in a perfect circle. There were many houses and buildings around the center of the town, where a large fountain stood. The paths were black like soot, and the circular street surrounding the fountain was lightly peppered with friendly civilians. Where had the man gone off to? Hell, what did he even look like?

Lark had only mentioned that he looked [i]suspicious.[/i] That could have been anyone!
