[quote=Magnus Eissenhoeff][color=FF5353][b]"S-So, basically, we've been hired by Jeb Blanck to find someone. We were hoping to find him, or someone that knew his farm south of Ambran, but so far nobody has had any information. Do you happen to know where we can find him, Ma'am? We'd really appreciate any help you could give."[/b][/color][/quote]

The Holstaur's mood was soured from [u]Annalise's[/u] earlier threats but she stuck around fortunately. "[color=lightcyan]Well if you're looking for Jeb himself, why don't you go to his farm south of Ambran? Why're you looking for him here?[/color]" The bovine monster was a bit confused from [u]Magnus'[/u] explanation. "[color=lightcyan]And you say Jeb's looking for someone? May I know who is he looking for?[/color]"

"[color=lightcyan]And also what's the deal with your friend over there?[/color]" The Holstaur asked about [u]Annalise[/u]. "[color=lightcyan]If she's looking for a fight, I know a warrior who's living here as well as a Salamander who'd love a good scrap.[/color]"

[quote=Nephele Francine Megalos III][color=A9A9A9][b]"I am here from Artenni's Emporium's Mahigan branch. We'd gotten a request some time ago for a caravan to be dispatched here, and I was to find the path to Sonarra for them. Best to have a monster cut through brush after all. If you'd grant us passage, we can stop and provide our goods to your people in about an hours' time. If that is agreeable, that is."[/b][/color][/quote]

"[color=rosybrown]...You are a bad liar, Dragon.[/color]" The warrior instantly saw through your lie. "[color=rosybrown]Caravans may be crazy enough to come to Varjan territory, yes, but to send a monster to search the path? Ohhhh, no one is that stupid or ignorant. Especially not an emporium from the north.[/color]"

He and his men slowly reached for their weapons. It seems you had a fight in your--

"[color=rosybrown]HAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!![/color]" The warrior and his men suddenly burst into hearty laughter, pointing fingers at you.

"[color=rosybrown]Relax, aking kaibigan! Relax![/color]" He told you. "[color=rosybrown]Welcome to Sonarra, ate! Let's come, eat, drink! And then we'll talk.[/color]" The warrior then motioned you to follow him. He and his men led you inside the dreary town. The streets were barely clean and there was a slight stench of decay and refuse in the air.

The warrior motioned you to sit with him on a table in front of a shoddy, poorly-built bar. "[color=rosybrown]My name is Felipe de Santa Anna. A proud warrior of Emilio Hari's rebellion against the iron oppression of the Varjans.[/color]" He introduced himself. "[color=rosybrown]Perhaps you have heard of him, Dragon? Emilio Hari?[/color]"

"[color=rosybrown]Anyway, what is a Dragon like you doing so deep into Varjo? Who are you? Are you really from an emporium from the north?[/color]" Felipe asked. "[color=rosybrown]Or are you from the guild? I posted a request there, you know?[/color]"

[quote=Freyr][color=8dc73f]"We have advantage on this terrain. Stealth isn't an option though, since we are in an open area. We have the element of surprise but there aren't that many places to hide once we show ourselves. So we have to use this advantage very well. A hard first strike to lessen the numbers to make the ongoing fight at least manageable. My arrows can easily pierce the other knights armors, but I doubt I will be able to do anything at this distance to the two heavy armored knights, both the red one and the high ranking knight."[/color][/quote]

"[color=royalblue]Sounds like we need a distraction. To maximize the effect of the ambush.[/color]" Haley said from out of nowhere.

"[color=royalblue]Hey, guys![/color]" The Siren greeted the party with a sheepish smile. "[color=royalblue]I followed you not long after you left. Don't worry, I wasn't seen. I mean, come on. If they saw me, they'd be acting all alert and all that.[/color]" Haley then took a glance at the prison caravan. "[color=royalblue]And they seem pretty docile right now.[/color]"

"[color=royalblue]Anyway, I agree with Freyr. All we have to ourselves is the surprise and we have to make that count since there's only four of us and a bajillion of them.[/color]" Haley continued. "[color=royalblue]I have an idea, I can focus all attention of the caravan on me while you guys sneak up from behind and take them out one by one stealthily. We'll keep the facade as long as we can. If it breaks, hopefully you'll have taken enough of them down to even the playing field.[/color]"

"[color=royalblue]What do you guys think?[/color]"

[quote=Ozzy Skyway][color=gold]"Isn't that a little heavy?"[/color][/quote]

"Wha-?! Are you saying I'm fat?" Ian took offense at your question, missing its point. "I'll have you know I have a strict training regimen as well as a balanced diet of proteins and carbs and salads as was outlined in the latest issue of [i]Monster Girl Care: How To Look Great For The Hubby[/i].

[quote=Ozzy Skyway][color=gold]"Thank goodness harpies are adapted for carrying off pretty heavy prey.  Let me know if it's uncomfortable Ian."[/color][/quote]

"Hey, hey, no need to try to impress the ladies, Ozzy." Ian remarked. "You don't have to carry me by yourself. Let your Mothman friend here help out. After all, being in a relationship doesn't mean shouldering all the burden so your significant other doesn't have to." The mercenary appeared to have jumped to a conclusion regarding [u]Morgan[/u] and [u]Ozzy[/u]. "Burden must be carried by the two of them together. Just like how they will tackle everything else in their lives: Together."

Ian appeared like he has shared some wise advice and not some awkward assumptions.
