Rala rolled her eyes at another one of Aura's snide remarks at her expense. The swordswoman grit her teeth to hold back the gnawing desire to snap at the Genasai. They where allies, there was no need for her to be hostile despite it being in her nature. Instead the woman merely scoffed and replied sharply. [Color=RosyBrown]"Not even in your dreams, Aura"[/color] She replied bluntly. As the other two bickered Rala scouted the area once more, looking for any miscreants or people out of place. It was curious that the hawk could change shapes but Rala had dealt with enough mages, criminal or otherwise, to understand that this was likely a familiar. She had a respect for Hawk, such a small being doing their best just to serve another. She wondered what sort of deal the two had, but felt that now was not the time to ask. Cascade seemed to not understand how bizarre her village was seeming, and Rala too felt there were getting nowhere in explaining this to the cheery child. Perhaps Cascade knew, and kept their persona up merely to feel a sense of normality amongst more common folk.
