As Gromgard said yes, the artists smiled at each other before turning to Mamoru, hearing her decline. As Shill looked like he was going to begin pleading, Penn examined the look on her face and stopped his brother. Instead of pleading, he walked up to her and frowned softly. "Pretty lady no like a picture?" he asked curiously. Gromgard cleared his throat, telling Penn not to press the issue further. He then spoke in the goblin language, asking for some of the scouts to join the painting.

Getting the scene perfect wasn't hard. They used a nearby downed tree as a table and set it up for a picnic scene with Gromgard at the head and three of the goblins around him nearby. Though they were posing, the scouts still kept their attention outward for signs of danger. At one point, much to the joy of the artists, a black bird, much like a crow or a raven, landed at the opposite end of the log. They quickly added it to the portrait before continuing on everything else.

It had been a little over an hour by the time they were finished and were showing off the picture. One of the scouts frowned, not understanding it. Though he did stop the scout beside him from throwing a berry at the painting, having seen the fury of the artists.

After everyone had seen it, Gromgard smiled and grabbed the painting to slide into his shadow pocket to keep it safe for the trip home. He patted the artists on their heads before beginning to stretch. Sitting in the pose for so long had made him a bit stiff. He then looked at the food and decided it would be a good spot to have a picnic to allow everyone to eat.

The pair of scouts remaining in the trees jumped down to enjoy the food with the others. The rest of the scouts claimed their same spots from their poses and began their meal. Gromgard, however, offered a spot at the other end of the log to Mamoru to sit beside him, across from the artists.

Once everyone had eaten, Gromgard looked back towards the castle. [color=f1f101]"Shall we head back to the chateau?"[/color] he asked, glancing at Mamoru. He felt it had been long enough and didn't want to stay out all day.
