When the sounds of a man being pounced upon by Shaedra's animal companion, Jacoby's empty hand closed around thin air. A moment later, an elegantly crafted longsword appeared in his hand that seemed to glow softly with the same shade of blue the eye in Jacoby's orb gave off. Jacoby walked over to where the man was being held by Jamil. "Hmm..." Jacoby said and the eye in his orb examined the man before coming to a stop at the 'BB' burned onto the man's leather armor. "BB..." Jacoby commented "I assume it stands for 'Barnaby Brothers', a bandit group that operates in this forest. If any of you aren't looking for a fight, I suggest you move on. That whistle he just let off was probably a call for help". If the whistle was indeed meant as a call for help, Jacoby had every indention of staying to face the bandits. They were a danger to the innocent and their actions were detestable. The less there were of them in the forest, the better.
