[h3]---A Remote Forest---[/h3] -[@ToadRopes] & [@cloudystar]- Keerin returned and was not happy at all seeing the arrow still lodged into his rib. "[color=00aeef]Ma'am, did I not tell you to remove the arrow? What part of that was I not clear about?[/color]" She began to antagonize [u]Tomoe[/u]. "Come now, Keerin. She's doing her best." Jarde pleaded with a smile. "I think she did a good job. Besides, you're here now." Keerin sighed and said nothing more about the matter. "[color=00aeef]Now then, let us remove the arrow. It will only hurt for a moment, milord.[/color]" "AGH!" -[@ToadRopes], [@cloudystar], [@Lady Athena], [@Polaris North] (MNO) & [@Darkmoon Angel]- The sounds of rapid, heavy footsteps caught the group's attention and interrupted their conversations. Were they being followed? Was the fighting in Dragonrage Pass not done and had caught up? It appeared not as the footsteps sounded more distant by the second, fading away as soon as they appeared. Prince Jarde, however, had a bad feeling about it. "We should investigate." He stood up as soon as Keerin was done healing him and having put his armor back on. "Come on, everyone!" The prince then made his way towards the sounds of the footsteps, expecting everyone to follow him. While Merilia followed without hesitation, Keerin tried to protest but was forced to follow the flow with, presumably, the rest of the group. [h3]---A Clearing Beside A Steep Base of a Cliff---[/h3] -[@Polaris North] (AZR)- You remember successfully fleeing from the battle of Dragonrage Pass with a [url=http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/megamitensei/images/3/3e/Shin_Megami_Tensei_x_Fire_Emblem_Tiki.png/revision/latest?cb=20151204163340]strangely-dressed girl[/url]. However, you were followed by a group of Footmen from Gleivnir lead by a Gleivnir Warrior. You had no idea why though and they appear to be too threatening for you to ask. Soon, you and the girl get cornered as you run into a natural wall in the form of the foot of a cliff. The two of you were now surrounded with nowhere to run. Despite being the King of Archanea, the Gleivs do not recognize you and closed in on you. "[color=aba000]Give us the girl and we shall spare you![/color]" The Gleivnir Warrior demanded. "[color=aba000]She is responsible for everything and she must pay![/color]" You may have prowess in combat but you were outnumbered twenty to one. Plus you need to watch over the girl if you decide to not hand her over. And there seemed to be more coming... -[@ToadRopes], [@cloudystar], [@Lady Athena], [@Polaris North] (MNO) & [@Darkmoon Angel]- Jarde lead the party through the woods and into a clearing where they see some twenty five Gleivnir Footmen with a Gleivnir Warrior leading them. They surrounded two figures against a steep, rocky wall that belonged to a cliff's bottom. "[color=00aeef]Wait, is that...[/color]" Keerin recognized one of the surrounded figures. "[color=00aeef]It's... it's the King Azure! The King of Archanea![/color]" She pointed out. "[color=00aeef]Why is he being accosted by the Gleivs? And who is that girl with him?[/color]" "[color=red]It doesn't matter! He's under attack! We should help![/color]" Merilia unsheathed her sword. Jarde, meanwhile, could not decide. He wanted to help out the Archanean King but even then, they would be outnumbered. Footmen were not the best soldiers around but they could still overwhelm the party even with a Manakete. And so, the prince was once again indecisive. And once again, his allies will have to make the decision for him. -[@Delta44], [@Eisenhorn] & [@Apollosarcher]- (You guys can arrive separately or together if you wish) You made way for Dragonrage Pass, for reasons your own, and you reached the border between the Concilium and the Moon Kingdom. You were getting close but you had a feeling you were going to be a bit late for the meeting. And you realize you WERE going to be late as you stumble upon a clearing filled with twenty five Gleivnir Footmen with a Gleivnir Warrior leading them. They surrounded two figures against a steep, rocky wall that belonged to a cliff's bottom. One of the figures appeared to be some sort of royalty. Perhaps you would recognize him for you are Concilium people after all. Meanwhile the green-haired girl cowered behind the royal, her pointed ears indicated that she was not human.
