[color=aba000]"Hoooh~! Interesting! A Cryptid, your kind is rare, and each unique! Without knowing our problems, you would offer us assistance? How fortunate of us"[/color], the smile of the Sand King begot his delight. Though, his expression would change as he seemed to take a moment to reflect on but one of the things he mentioned, a 'great change', he would mutter to himself. He did not let that moment last long though, [color=aba000]"very well, your assistance will be welcome"[/color].

His address then turned to the young gunslinger, who also offered assistance, albeit for less mystical reasons, and more personal. Yes indeed, the slavery of peoples from other nations being brought here by slavers was an issue, and those from Walton and Averton are the most numerous. The Sand King nodded his head to the side in thought, [color=aba000]"very well, you! Bring him his things, with luck the quartermaster hasn't decided to sell them off just yet"[/color], he said. The crewman standing off to the side did a bow, before walking off. [color=aba000]"You will have them before long, but it seems you have some bone to pick with the Spines"[/color].

The Oni Takemura would shortly step forward, he took a hand to his chest and beat it, [color=f26522][i]"of course! I will join the Radiant Suns! I had been searching for a place to be, ever since my homeland had ousted me, and I was sadly taken captive"[/i][/color], Axom clapped, [color=aba000]"excellent! An Oni would be a boon to this crew. I will see to it you get introduced after this audience"[/color], and with that... They had to address the elf in the room. The one tied up and staring a hole into the Sand King.

[color=aba000]"Hmmmm..."[/color], he crossed his arms, and stared into her eyes, not breaking eye contact. She said nothing, of course, and this seeming staring contest seemed to last for an uncomfortable amount of time. The crewmen were... Understandably glancing at each other in confusion. This continued for... Yet a little while longer, before the silence was finally broken.

[color=aba000]"Such pure eyes and yet it trusts no one... And you are no ordinary elf either"[/color], he was at an impasse, on what to do with her... He cannot very well just let her go free, afterall she seemed to be predisposed to deadly force, but it did not seem to be out of pure malice or hedonism, but rather rampaging and fear...

[color=aba000]"Rajeev, what do you make of her?"[/color] The Shaitan known as Rajeev would also cross his arms in thought, nodding his head before scratching his chin, looking at the tied up elf girl.

[color=f7941d]"I think, she has simply yet to learn the ways of the world, and her power is impressive... We are not babysitters, however so we cannot spare anyone capable enough to watch her, what with the Spines on the move even as we speak..."[/color], he continued.

[color=f7941d]"Hmmm... I may know someone, who can be of help. Leave her with me to see to that, once my short business is concluded, I will return to assist in the chase and investigation"[/color], and there it was... It seems Kazue would be put under someone's care.
