“You don’t mind Liza, do you?” Septim asked amusedly as he glanced over the new girl. Posture indicated training despite the seemingly lax nature, clone probably indicated very early training or perhaps even designed for a specific purpose? Not enough information to be certain. 

Frowning behind his helmet as one of the six went up in flames, Septim held back the urge to give the giant reptile a friendly warning shot to the hand. The darn thing hadn’t even participated, and it was taking an entire sixth of their current food supply?! Instead, he manifested a handgun and sent a round into the ground at Jackal’s feet. “That’s your freebie,” he said in a friendly tone, “next time, no work, no food.” Letting the manifestation fade away afterwards, he hoped the message had gotten through to the dragonic being.

“Because working together is easier if we know each other's names and what each of us can do.” Septim answered the armored humanoid before he tilted his head. “Also, any relevant past experience would be nice to bring up. There seems to be people from all sorts of time periods and worlds.” Tapping his helmet, the frontal section seemed to disconnect and attach to his face before he pulled the rest off; leaving Septim with a gas-mask-esque piece.

Letting his long crimson hair out with a shake of the head, Septim tucked the helmet beneath an arm and looked towards the two that decided the meeting was important enough to pay attention to. His smile was hidden by the piece he still wore, but it reached his eyes. “Mmm. Too many different species to tell, but yes, a few days might drive some desperate,” he agreed with Mable as he glanced over the hundreds alone that he could see, "some might just need to be hungry..." 

“Game is… apt, I suppose,” Septim admitted after some thought. The scale of the rewards were far greater than what he was used to, but he knew of some that saw Marks as challenges and dived into them for their own amusement, so Mable’s comparison wasn’t completely out of place. “Given our first reward though, exploring further is a priority. It seems likely we’ll get access to food, shelter, and other necessities as subsequent rewards.”
