Do not treat this as a game or you will die or get someone else killed."[/color] Kaleb had nodded his head in agreement as if what the Kharne said didn’t apply to him. [color=goldenrod][i]I like this guy. A little too preachy, but he can be added to the roster. He can be the pep talk guy or the P.R. guy.[/i][/color] Kaleb was still nodding despite Kharne addressing his very specific comments and mentioning the idea of hiding. Even if he [I]had[/i] clearly comprehended what was said, Kaleb would have just brushed the issue off. It didn't matter if it was Liam Neeson in dragon form, Kaleb felt he could take care of himself in the face of anything Av.alia could throw at him. The guy had just slain 67 monsters today and the clock hadn’t even struck noon yet! It wasn’t until Kharne started to go over what Kaleb anticipated to be a tragic backstory, that he actually tuned in. [color=gray]"I'm a mercenary and have been for a little over forty years… Annya Annya Annya Annya…”[/color] Kaleb raised an eyebrow with his mouth agape, completely disappointed in the sentence long origin story. [color=goldenrod][i]What the fuck?[/i][/color] He couldn’t even look to the others considering their status as [i]supporting[/i]. [color=goldenrod][i]Big L in that Liam but we’ll work with it since he’s a killing machine[/i][/color]. And though he had been too distracted to listen to the rest of what Kharne had to say yet again, Kaleb could at least make out that Annya was a decent woman from Kharne's perspective. When the broadcast played… Let’s just say it was quite the wake-up call for the young movie star. The sight of the unneeded mutilation of a human shook him to the core, leaving him almost catatonic. He looked down towards the water, thinking if that had been him, and it easily could have. In fact, if it weren’t for Eris, he would have been gobbled up by one of those giant snakes. [color=goldenrod][i]Shit… that was… That was something.[/i][/color] Kaleb was so absorbed in his thoughts, that he missed Kharne’s first few words shouted in addressing the sudden strong winds currently howling. Kaleb snapped out of his stupor to find the others jumping out of the water and dressing. Kaleb looked from person to person while he got out of the pool. One after the other, they left the spa, only for him simply poke his head out and watch the four of them run towards… a tornado? Again, he raised an eyebrow before shaking his head. [color=goldenrod]“Nope. Not doing that shit.”[/color] Even if the tornado was where the others had been, what the hell could he do about it? [color=seagreen]“Sir, is your party finished?”[/color] An attendant asked from outside. [color=goldenrod]“Give your boy a few minutes and I’ll be out in a few.”[/color] He shot her a grin before going back inside and dipping right back into the water. [color=goldenrod]“Ahhh all to myself… To myself? Heh.”[/color] He held a hand out, watching lines of steam rising from it due to the heat he was beginning to produce.[hr] [i]Currently…[/i] Thick steam escaped the spa tent like a dramatic entrance that Kaleb felt was only fitting for a man like himself. He stepped out confidently, first noticing the tornado or whatever he saw had vanished. People were murmuring in the streets while looking over in the direction of the beach. There were too many conversations to follow but there were several keywords that stuck out. [i]Beach. Tornado. Magic. Human.[/i] He sighed as he was his delight of being in a beachfront town would surely come to an end. [color=seagreen]“Sir, is your-”[/color] [color=goldenrod]“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I’m done.”[/color] Kaleb made his way toward the beach. He’d get there much later than the others but he was sure a few would recognize him casually walking towards the scene. Upon arriving, of course, he had to speak. [color=goldenrod]“Who was it that fucked things up for us here?!”[/color] He pointed over his shoulder towards the greater part of town. [color=goldenrod]“People are talking and… Wait, what happened to Eris?![/color] Kaleb approached his elven companion, noticing how exhausted she appeared. He put an arm around her while looking around at the others, appearing to want answers for a brief moment before guiding her away. [color=goldenrod]“Come on, let’s get the hell away from here. And what even happened? I mean... you’re okay, right?”[/color] [/color]
