With a plan agreed upon, at least for now, the pack began their preparations. Sabine got up and took the fire salts over to her alchemy equipment to fashion them into explosives, and after pausing for more thought, Ariel did so as well. On the surface, it seemed like something was bothering Ariel, but in reality she was currently quite astonished. That ring, she had read about it before, but to think that Meesei herself was Hircine's champion was beyond all that she had suspected. It seemed to make sense, the more she thought about it. Meesei was wise and powerful. If anyone was capable of carrying out the wishes of Hircine himself, it would be her. Maybe she just expected Hircine's champion to be... more grounded in savagery and with less self control? Fendros, while knowing about the title, did not know the effects of the ring itself. He sat looking at it on Meesei's finger for a short while. It seemed a little cruel of the Lord of the Hunt to give full control over to only the most loyal servants, while other lycanthropes are forced to his curse. Cold and calculating. The strange thing was that perhaps a few weeks ago he would have sought to have the ring so he could escape and live without having to transform, now he wasn't so drawn to it. He had commitments here in the pack, as well as new friends, and he even found love in the mix. He wondered how it took this long to realise that he wasn't going to escape because he didn't want to anymore. With a sigh, he stood up. Perhaps he and Janius could find something more effective against these skeletons amongst the spare weapons that were found. Before that, though, he extended a hand and a smile to Ahnasha. "What are your plans today?" He asked quietly. While Ariel had expected her and Sabine to begin their work in earnest, Sabine had taken some time to remove a few small soul gems from her bag, before looking to Ariel and tugging on her sleeve. "Let's find soul gems," Sabine said simply. Ariel was a little confused, but if Meesei needed the soul gems now, then they might as well look."Okay," Ariel replied, following her sister to the various supplies around the caves. The supplies relating to alchemy and magic, evidently the mage's side of the room, was comparatively well sorted and cataloged than the other supplies. It was no wonder that Sabine was able to find the fire salts jar so quickly.
