In his rush to get her somewhere safe, Antaeus's answers to the guards were a bit more fast paced than his usual speech. His experience had obviously flustered the normally confident boy, and while the initial fear had passed his face was still flushed and his broad shoulders shook with every heavy breath.

"It's me, Antaeus! From the mines! I was hunting up north, came across her and this fellow!" he would gesture to the orc. "Brought it down but she's hurt bad! The orc's helped me, he's a good guy so if we can get through--"

The soldiers passed them through and directed him to Maeda's college. Antaeus nodded and urged the orc onward. He knew roughly where the school teacher lived--though he couldn't help feeling a shiver at the thought of meeting her again. He didn't dislike Ms. Maeda, he really didn't--but something about all those legs had always just made him slightly uncomfortable. He knew it was kind of silly and wasn't really fair to the spider-woman. And he wasn't even that scared of normal spiders. He swept them out all the time at home whenever his sister or mother screamed. But it was just...

He shook his head. None of that was important right now.

"Ms. Maeda is an Arachne, by the way, so don't let that surprise you." he said to the orc as they reached the door. He carefully let down his end of the stretcher so that he could knock on the door. He hated to wake someone up in the middle of the night, but this was an emergency, so his big fist fairly boomed against the wood.

"Ms. Maeda! It's Antaeus! Someone's hurt, we need help quick!" he called. He looked back at the orc. "I don't know if she'll use medicine or magic, but I'm hoping she can save her. Are you one of her companions, or did you just come upon us happenstance?" It could be excused given the circumstances, but Antaeus hadn't even asked this fellow's name yet. He wondered if he and the silver haired girl were together in a party. Were they real adventurers who had been hunting the stag? That girl had picked the bloody creature up all on her own, after all. Surely that kind of strength had to come from hard training or some kind of heroic power...

[hider=Quest Log]
+Bookie has agreed to write a letter to Captain Ork at the Garrison. I should kill an animal in the forest and take it to Captain Ork to prove I'm adventuring material.
--The animal can be anything from the Forest. Bookie suggested a deer or a boar.

+With the help of these others, I've slain the White Stag! I should take back some form of proof, and give Barthen's trap back to him...
[s]--Barthen has requested me to hunt a White Stag in the Forest, and has given me a free hunting trap for this purpose. If I don't succeed I should probably bring the trap back.[/s]
[s]---I should try to find the Redchaser, she might be able to help me.[/s]

+Barthen is paying 1 GP per pound of Medicinal Herbs from the forest.
