[color=PaleVioletRed]"Oh? Awful presumptuous to think I'll die before you. But if you must know; you can call me Raula."[/color] It was her turn to cross her arms. She wasn't going to step back just because the man stepped forward, but she had little reason to buddy buddy the man so easily; especially after that last comment. [color=PaleVioletRed]"And you? Awful [i]rude[/i] to ask for my name without offering yours, isn't it?"[/color] If she was to be honest, she didn't have much of a plan besides using the man as a shield and do all the work or die. She couldn't really tell [i]him[/i] that though. Luckily it wasn't long before others seemed to have appeared on the other side of the cavern. If nothing else, perhaps more meat to distract the dogs long enough for her to slip by. Her eyes were trained on the man. A strong gaze looking at everything from is size to his muscle and deep into his eyes to see what lied beneath. Sizing him up to see how good her chances were when another joined the two of them. Rather two more, as the man was accompanied by his pet golem. Despite his young appearance, it was clear by the way he spoke that he had perhaps even more years on him than she did. And perhaps even a bit full of himself, judging by how he stood himself on display. Still; even if he didn't look to have the combat prowess she needed to throw in front of the dogs, his mechanical friend seemed to have no problem stepping on those in his way. And depending on how tough it was, might be good enough to get past the dogs with ease. [color=PaleVioletRed]"Hmph. I'd rather avoid aligning myself under the same ideals of those dogs by being apart of a pack; but the intent I can get behind. I'll be glad to work together until we get out of this hole. If you're so interested, you may call me Raula as well. Its not much, but I have a couple of potions if you get injured. It'd be a drag if I had to carry you two and it out of this place."[/color] Weather to just show off the other, larger group forming, or just trying to distance herself a bit from the two men; Raula turned to gesture towards the rest of the denizens of this murky cavern. [color=PaleVioletRed]"You could also try to recruit those over there. But if I had to wager, they'd probably be heading out same as us. It might be just as well to let them go first and come in after them. I'll leave that between you two."[/color] [hr][center][@ZAVAZggg], [@Reflection][/center]
