Gideon thought about the stranger once again. Perhaps his concerns may be addressed if he were to meet the swordswoman's charge. For now, though, there was the need to properly meet and address the other hunters. Gideon followed Akando into the lodge, bowing his head to the hunters about in response to their salutations.

"[color=95A5A6]These Living Veins... I'm still not entirely sure if they are prevalent here. I'd have to do more studies on them for sure, perhaps figure out a way to hunt them without the need of multiple Stonesingers. They tend to blend in fairly well.[/color]"

With that said, Gideon would position himself somewhat to the center of the lodge, somewhere where he could get the attention of the hunters.

"[color=95A5A6]Well met, everyone. My name is Gideon, although I'm sure Akando has already told you all about me. I've had my share of experiences hunting across the lands, myself. I believe if we can work together, we can resolve the issues we have with both food and resources after that blizzard had occured. While I will defer to you all in matters regarding the local fauna, there are some concerns I would like to bring to the table as well...[/color]"

Gideon woulld continue to discuss with the hunters, making sure to mention the importance of sustainability once more especially after his and Akando's encounter with the Kyrnith. 

The main topic Gideon would get into, however, is the potential prevalence of any new or as-of-yet undiscovered beasts that lay in Dawn's hinterlands. In particular, he would cite the Living Veins as an example, going into everything he has ascertained from his initial encounter with the beast. This includes the best places to shoot or throw a spear at the beast, as well as how vicous a bite from a Living Vein could be.
