The introductions went surprisingly quickly. Uzul did have questions for Mika but she quickly answered them. He was surprised that these were some of the humans. He thought humans would look more unique, maybe something deserving of the dark elves' hunt. But who knows, they could be holding some kind of odd powers. Uzul would normally advise against traveling through the heart of the desert but time was of the essence. After it was set that they would go through the desert, Uzul pulled from his experience on how much water, the food they might need. With the restriction of 2 camels, they are going to have to rely on an oasis along the way to keep them topped off. The food could also prove to be an issue. He doesn't want to completely overbear the camels as Uzul believes that at least one of the people coming will get injured and require the camel to carry them. Trekking through the desert was a logistical nightmare but it seemed the people coming along were more than capable of handling the planning. Uzul even admits that their ability to quickly plan and gather resources far exceeded his own. Well, all that meant was his true duty was to consult them and guide them to Dugmaghord.

Uzul couldn't help but feel uneasy about who was traveling with them. Both Rosaria and Nuallán were not only light elves but were in the highest social circles of sun elven society. Both seemed well versed in a wide array of subjects but Nuallán worried him on base principle. At the end of the day, Uzul was once a marauder who murdered many sun elves within their lands during the raids. Nuallán was Rosaria's protector and he could see Uzul as a threat because of his past. He hoped it wouldn't come to that but he had to keep it as a possibility. It wasn't long until they gathered the supplies and the group headed into the desert. 

Jomari was mildly interesting to Uzul, he wanted to come into the desert when it seemed the rest of the humans were staying. He couldn't tell if he was brave or dumb for that. He had an air of charm he carried and he seemed to have had irritated some of the people here. However, he didn't look like a traditional warrior to Uzul and that worried him. Everyone else here had some confidence in their ability to fight. He looks to be more of a manipulator, someone who fights through less physical means. Those skills were of course useful but unless he can convince a wyvern to turn away with his words, they didn't mean much yet. He could prove useful for tricking more neutral orcs potentially. Uzul will be keeping a close guard on him, monsters like to go after what they perceive to be the easiest meal. Uzul couldn't get a good read on Kuroi as he joined later but Mika seemed confident with him so Uzul won't worry about him as much

Once Mika had finally adjusted to walking on the shifting sands, she asked Uzul a question. Uzul turned to Mika and thought on how to answer her question. The desert may be full of monsters but they only made it harder to survive it. Uzul was speaking to Mika but he made his voice loud enough for others to hear clearly. [Color=#1dc604]"The desert is full of monsters to watch out for but even more dangerous are the smaller animals that can bite and poison you. Not only that, it's best to keep your mouth and nose covered. Sand will get into your mouth and dry you out. Conserve your energy the best you can. If you can't walk either me or the camels will carry you."[/color] Uzul keeps walking until he can see a scorpion then heading towards it to grab it by the back of its tail. He presents it to the group, [Color=#1dc604]"This is a scorpion, they are small bug with a tail long curled tail, the stinger on the ends is sharp and stabs into you to deliver poison into you. Smaller doesn't mean less poisonous. What matters is species, this one will cause some pain, swelling, and labor your breathing. Very few can actually kill you but they make it harder to survive so be wary of them."[/color] Uzul kept going over the other dangers of the desert. He kept the actual monsters of the desert to the very end as in his eyes to warriors they are a threat that they can handle but a small insignificant sting from one of them can get you killed.

After giving what he can on how to be safer in the harsh sands, he finally got into how they Will be chartering the desert. Uzul speaks again with little space between his safety instructions, [Color=#1dc604]"As everyone knows, time is of the essence and we need to move quickly through the desert. We will be moving through the heart of this land where we can run into some of the worse this place has to offer. Our survival will rest on following what I told you and moving from Oasis to Oasis. These Oasis are almost guaranteed to have dangerous creatures near them. If you feel this is getting too much, please let me know and I'll do my best to take care of all of you. If you see another orc, consider them a threat until it is completely confirmed they are not"[/color]

Uzul continued walking in front, keeping them on the right path. He understands how determined they are but he can't help but worry that they aren't prepared to fight in less than ideal conditions. You will never be in top shape while traveling in the desert, that is what the desert does to you. He will do what he can for the princess and her entourage.
