While it was hardly unexpected that Archer would arrive to the scene, what with two of the biggest magical anomalies this side of the Undercity in one place, she still attempted to be mildly surprised by the cigarette smoke laden arrival of the mage. [color=#018c3b][b]"Well you didn't stop by the Stoneworks so I was under the impression you were here for pleasure not business, and who am I to interrupt a night of fiery passion."[/b][/color] Zolya retorts with a cheeky smile while giving the air a very intimate hug. [color=#859abc][b]"Child of Olympia."[/b][/color] Merllwyn replied respectfully to the entity that had arrived.

Following the nonchalant mage up the brambles Zolya replied pulling the jar with a sample of Yue's haze out of her cloak [color=#018c3b][b]"We leave the silly stuff to Olympia, they're the reason all of this got out of hand. Now that the genie is out of the bottle, we're making sure she gets the guidance she needs."[/b][/color] Her words mostly directed at the organisation behind Archer than the man himself, knowing he didn't see entirely eye to eye on these matters with his higher-ups.

she then got to take a look at the 'malevolent entity' Merllwyn had gotten himself worked up about. Surface deep there wasn't that much wrong with the harpy, looking at things with another eye though... His concerns and Archers reaction weren't unfounded, and she subtly cast a little barrier spell on herself just in case.

[color=#0050ff][b]"I can imagine, being forced to see that bullshit all the time, all the while they keep you in the dark. Kinda makes me glad I just can't see it, period."[/b][/color] Raudd told her tensing his hand into a closed fist as a way to redirect the frustration he felt towards those who put her in this situation. In a way that made it a little more frustrating to hear Archer appear behind him, though probably also for the better. Any other Olympia member he might have punched in the face to vent those frustrations.

Raudd got up onto his feet when Yue jumped into Archer's arms and gave him a bearhug. [color=#0050ff][b]"Easy now, if you keep squeezing him like that, you're gonna break him in two."[/b][/color] A grin came over his face as he watched the reunion. Zolya on the other hand quietly stepped in and added a barrier of her own to help the poor man with pressure of the bearhug.

That was the moment when the harpy spoke up asking about the crimson moving around. A true blessing the creature likely wasn't even aware she'd just given, an unprompted confirmation that what you're seeing is in fact real. It then followed up with a tangent about being assaulted, and attacking them... Was it Archer that put it on edge or... [color=#0050ff][i]Shapeshifter[/i][/color] was what popped into Raudds mind seemingly finishing the blank his sister was drawing.

She quickly shook off the thoughts and used the momentum by answering the question. [color=#018c3b][b]"Because that's what happens when you drop someone in a gilded cage with surveillance and pretend they are crazy when they are seeing things normal people shouldn't be able to see. Worst of all if the person in question has no way to shut it out without someone telling them how."[/b][/color] She then turned to Archer. [color=#018c3b][b]"So, are you gonna tell her, or will she go under my wing?"[/b][/color] She said with a couple of the ravens taking it as their cue to land on the rooftop. Of course she knew the answer, but who knows he might actually surprise them.

Meanwhile attempting to be as non-threatening as a fairly large Viking can be Raudd put a few steps towards the creature and pulled a card out of his pocket. [color=#0050ff][b]"Sounds like you have your own set of struggles, if you need help just follow the trail from this card. There are friendly people there that can help you."[/b][/color] He said putting the card on the ground and sliding it the remaining distance to the creature. It might be the shapeshifter, but he had a gut feeling this behavior was genuine, which would have been one hell of a reformation if it was the shapeshifter.
