As Bartholomew greeted the group, like nothing had happened, Freyr couldn't bring himself to reply to his welcome, other than a simple nod. He didn't knew what to think regarding Bartholomew yet, many things had happened and his harsh words were still on his mind.

With Ditzy's wounds being already treated by Morgan, Freyr smiled as he heard Ditzy's eagerness to meat. Thanks to Morgan's healing and the liliraune's readiness to help, the color was already returning to his face and his voice was getting stronger. He was thankful for their presence, otherwise it would take more for Ditzy to fully recover than just some meat.

[color=8dc73f]"Indeed... He has an amazing resistant body. Even for a Hobgoblin."[/color] Freyr said, turning towards Sylvia, who was equally surprised regarding how tough Ditzy's body was.

[color=8dc73f]"Apparently, we will have quite a feast today. I will be sure to get an extra serving for you when we get to the table."[/color] Freyr replied with an amicable smile to Ditzy after his clear enthusiasm regarding meat.

It was then that a newcomer approached them with a curious voice as he greeted them enthusiastically and proceeded to squawk in amazement as he saw the liliraune sister's pot and platform they used to move themselves. Turning his face towards the newcomer, Freyr was surprised to realize that he was, just like Haley a harpy, albeit of an apparently different species. He couldn't help but to chuckle at his bright personality and curiosity. He wondered if it was a trait most Harpies shared or something, after all, the only harpies he knew had bright and pleasant personalities, sharing a few similarities.

[color=8dc73f]"It's good to meet you, Ozzy, I'm Freyr. I do believe It's our first time meeting each other."[/color] he said, greeting the Harpy boy with a discreet bow and a handshake.

As Freyr looked around, he couldn't help but to think to himself how lively the guild hall had become. It was good seeing so many new faces and how different the guild felt, unlike when they first arrived.

[color=8dc73f]"I was born and raised in the Vieran village, deep inside the Vieran Woods. Due to the fact that the Viera are a very recluse and secretive race, information regarding them is rare and sparse, but if you desire to know more about my kind, I would be happy to help you."[/color] Freyr said, nodding towards the harpy boy. Culture research was an interesting hobby for someone so young. Nonetheless, Freyr respected his thirst for knowledge.

[color=8dc73f]"Nectar Cookies?"[/color] Freyr repeated, curious about the pastries Ozzy, Vivian and Sylvia were talking about. According to what he understood, the liliraune sisters used their own nectar for it's unique sweetness together with a mix of herbs to counteract the aphrodisiac effect.

[color=8dc73f]"I would like to try one too, if the offer also extends to me, that is."[/color] he said, with a smile towards the sisters.

When they finally sat down to eat, they were met with a real feast, just as Freyr had said earlier. Apparently it was all made by Yang and her new cooking student, Ozzy. As he made his dish, Freyr got another big serving of meat, hiding it under the greens on his own plate with a quick and agile movement before he got back to his own seat.

[color=8dc73f]"Psst. Here, as promised."[/color] Freyr whispered to Ditzy, sneaking a big steak on his plate with a sly smile and putting a finger over his mouth.

When he did that though, a small stone, wrapped inside a piece of leather fell from inside his shirt on the table. Due to the impact, the small vines that were tying the leather around the stone snapped, making the stone fall on the table with an audible sound. Immediately as it felt, Freyr felt an unpleasant tingling sensation on his ears, together with a high pitched ring, making him twitch his ears a few times.

Immediately getting the crystal, wrapping it with the leather and hiding under his clothes with a single, fluid and agile movement, Freyr did not want Bartholomew to see it. It was the same crystal used back on the Vieran Woods by that strange Varjan man to create the barrier. Carrying it caused Freyr great discomfort if it wasn't tightly wrapped. He had thought of immediately handing it to  maybe Talia or someone who was well versed in magic arts, but if Bartholomew saw that, he would have to explain what it was to him and he was pretty sure he wouldn't like to know that they met with the Varjans once more, nor he would like to know that they now had their eyes on the guild. Even though the fact that the Viera would also enter the war against Varjo were good news that Bartholomew would probably like hearing, he was unsure how to say it or even if it was the right moment to do so...

Shaking his head and sending those thoughts away, Freyr concentrated his attention on the food in front of him.

[color=8dc73f]"It is delicious. I heard that the feast today was prepared by Yang and her new student, Ozzy, right?"[/color] Freyr asked, looking to both Ozzy and Yang with a chuckle.

Freyr Hoped Bartholomew wasn't magically sensitive to have felt the crystal fragment's magic in the short time it was unwrapped or he had actually seen it falling on the table as he wasn't really sure how Bartholomew would react to the news, both good and bad.
