I like a good workout, but how far is this place? You sure fast travel doesn't exist?"[/color] Darius whined as the three walked off the beaten path. Skar had mentioned that all roads lead to other people and the ragtag group needed to avoid as many people as possible. Darius had a high price on him and the group had a long way ahead of them. [Color=green]"SHUT… the fuck… up?"[/color] Skar attempted to mimic Darius while trying to yell at him, but she was finding it hard to speak like him. To her, he spoke as freely as an orc did, but he used many words to express himself like an elf. Darius looked at Skar with a smile. [Color=lightblue]"Oooh! Shots fired!"[/color] Darius laughed before looking at Myra who was still holding her bleeding meat. He was worried that it could go bad on her if she held onto it for too long. [Color=lightblue]"Skar you want to camp out real quick. Just to eat and maybe rest our feet?"[/color] Darius asked Skar who sighed before nodding her head forward. [Color=green]"Stream ahead. We rest there."[/color] She wasn't from this area, but she knew it well in her travels to and from Orc Landing where weapons and drink were plenty. Myra was notably less agitated than she was a while ago when she saw the Lich's image on the sky, but judging by her wary expression as they proceeded, she still didn't like the idea that much. That said, Myra was somewhat amused by Darius and Skar's conversation. While she didn't understand absolutely [i]anything[/i] about Darius was saying as he used some weird words, the tone both of them were using and their expressions were indeed amusing. Especially how Skar changed tone as she spoke, she began yelling but it changed so much that it was rather curious for Myra. After a while, Darius asked Skar if they could rest for a bit. Myra was already able to smell water when Skar mentioned it, but her having mentioned it was enough for Myra to understand that they would indeed rest there. While she knew Darius didn't eat meat, she wasn't so sure about Skar herself. Looking at the big pieces of meat she was holding, she extended one of them towards Skar, silently asking if she wanted to eat some when she got to the river. She had already seen a few of the green giants hunting, so that meant she surely could eat meat... right? [Color=green]"Hmm…"[/color] Skar looked at the demon offering her meat. She questioned the demon's motives as demons always had their reasons for doing things. [Color=green][i]Why demon can't be simple like orc?[/i][/color] Skar crouched down and hesitantly moved to smell the meat while Darius watched with a grin. [Color=lightblue][i]Finally! My girls are sharing![/i][/color] Darius wished he had a camera so he could take a picture of this moment. Their difference in size made things even funnier. Skar identified the meat as still being fresh, but it would need to be cooked before she could enjoy it. Orcs could eat raw meat when desperate or lazy, but it was normally better to cook things. Skar held a hand up to nonverbally tell Myra to wait. [Color=green]"Wait, demon. I make fire and cook meat."[/color] Skar offered, which was a little out of the norm. Maybe she was just hungry or Darius was using some strange magic on Myra and herself. She suspected it for a while due to how the man could cooperate with an orc and a demon so easily. [Color=green]"Darius. Watch camp. Demon, watch Darius."[/color] Skar ordered as she walked from the stream and deeper into the forest to find wood to make a fire. Darius gave a quick thumbs up and placed a hand on Myra's head. [Color=lightblue]"Wait why are you making HER watch me?!"[/color] Darius called out, but Skar left unimpeded. He looked at Myra and then at the stream. [Color=lightblue]"Skar will be gone for a bit and Myra is… she's something, but not like a regular person…"[/color] Darius raised his right arm and sniffed under it. He needed a shower before he arrived in Avalia, so the mild musty smell wasn't a surprise. It was time to take advantage of the stream before him. [Color=lightblue]"Myra, watch… watch that tree. Don't look at me."[/color] Darius instructed, waiting on how the demon would respond to his words. Despite her initial hesitation, Myra was glad that Skar accepted the meat she was offering her. It might be just a small thing, but it was already a step in the right direction in order for her and Skar to trust each other. Interestingly enough, judging by how happy Darius was upon seeing that, he also knew the importance of that small act. With the meat in hands, Skar went deeper into the woods to do something, maybe she didn't want to eat in front of Darius or Myra? Or perhaps she didn't want to share... Either way, before she walked away, she told Myra to watch Darius. Even though Darius seemed to have something to complain over what Skar said, she was already gone. Looking towards him with a curious expression, almost as if she was quite literally 'watching' Darius, just like Skar asked, she simply observed him as he looked at her and then to the river near them, with a thoughtful expression, mumbling something. Even though she didn't understand what he meant other than that Skar was gone and her name, the second he raised his arms and smelled himself, his intentions became clear to Myra. Maybe Myra should have expected but when she got closer to Darius and sniffed the air, she quickly gave a step back, shaking her head due to the smell. While it wasn't particularly strong, it was still strange and unfamiliar to Myra. It tickled her nose in a rather unpleasant way. When Darius pointed towards the tree, gesturing for her to turn around and look at that tree, she turned her head towards where Skar went and then to Darius again, looking at him with watchful eyes. Skar told Myra to keep looking at Darius, didn't she?
