[h2] Versle Ynnmaar [/h2] Looking down at the small blonde haired woman before him, his tongue swiftly slid across his lips as she spoke. Was she really trying to "square up" with him? Surely she knows this would be a one sided contest if it were anything than more a battle of quips. Intrigued by her confidence he held her gaze. A sly smile forming on his face as the thoughts of showing her up came rushing into his mind. "Seems like the call for hunters was mistaken as a babysitting venture. How'd you two get in here anyway? Surely your parents must be looking for you." The sarcasm in her words match by his own. Not one to step down from a challenge, he fully stretches his frame and stares intently at her before the voice of the queen demands his attention. After listening to the queen's announcement of why they had been summoned, it all started making sense. He was unfamiliar with most of these other hunters, but not so clueless to now know that this would be well more than a one man job so to speak. The description of a large reptilian protector caused a wide grin to reach across his face as he looked over to Adelaide, giving her the "I told you so" nod. the other sister still a mystery to him but nonetheless interesting, hiding behind her hood he wasn't sure what she could really do, but if she had any of the confidence of Adelaide then he would follow them. If nothing else to prove that silver tongues aren't enough to take down real monsters. Looking down onto his own slip of paper and seeing the number 1 printed on it, he began to follow the crowd and joined the motley crew of hunters gathered in this area. Each one clearly with their own specialization, most of them a mystery to him. He reaches out to the noisy "invention" as Latrell had called it and poked it a bit. Unsure as to how this tiny contraption could be of any use to their upcoming mission he gave Latrell a look of "is this really coming with us?" "Well I know why they called me here to go with you lot. Not enough muscles between the lot of you to open a locked door I'd reckon. So it seems I'll be dealing with this "reptile" while you all watch from the sidelines" he says with a chuckle as they all start to leave the room. "Still unsure of what that fox guy is bringing to the table. Do we need decorative masks for this mission or something?" he says with a look of confusion towards Izu. "I assume you're a lot more capable than that body lets on." Looking over the small frames of his new companions, Versle thinks to the near future of what is going to happen on these mountains. Raised in the mountains north of Jale himself, he is familiar with the conditions that will soon be upon them. But is this group capable of handling the harsh climbs and frigid temperatures of the peaks? Concerns grew in his mind as he absently listened to whatever Nikolai was saying while they were congregating. 'Oh well' he thought, a mission is a mission and completing missions means more food in his belly. Hopefully one of these people could cook well enough to keep them sated during this adventure to come.
