Yea, Gringor be flip-flopping a lot but I figure IC-wise, there's no way he'll let someone injured do their own thing without him joining so he can be in for a fight as well.

Gringor of the Ironhide tribe

Gringor caught sight of the flying blood, his axe going through it before it felt like it was striking iron. Impact going down all the way to the bone marrow before it splattered all over him. Stunning his sensitive nose, able to pick even truffles from underneath the ground, covered in absolute tang and iron scent.

His head caught sight of the fire erupting towards him, and briefly, memories of yesterday event came and this time, Gringor knew what to do.

He'll smash it aside.

A singular and muscular arm flexed itself to the point that veins popped as he swung upwards. Ax head biting deep into the ground, staff bent from the sheer speed.

Then at its apex, a chunk of the ground uprooted directly beneath the flames. Sending it upwards in large gouts, blood pounded headily as Gringor readied himself for the other attack. Waiting like a tiger for the moment where Alice attack descended before he'll initiates his own.

Though all his enthusiasm stopped when she suddenly staggered and vomited green blood. Actual green blood unlike the rainbow-colored he was just splattered in.

Moving forward, he just looked at the suffering Alice until she just left.

Huh.

Heading to the well, dumping water all over himself to clean off the blood. Gringor cracked his neck once, looked at Takeshi, the sisters and rabbit girl before changing his mind once again.

"I'll follow her," With that declaration, Gringor slapped Takeshi in the back and headed out. It'll be a darn waste if one of their members died before seeing the great war.

Approaching her, with or without her consent. He loomed over Alice before thumbing towards a general direction. "So where youz heading?"

@Enkryption

To clarify.

Yes

Gringor is indeed attacking and fighting Alice/Caroll.

Honestly, if it wasn't Alice/Caroll, it would've been Takeshi or Nobutada eventually. He was looking for one either ways.

Skarsneek of the Red Hill

Seeing the commotion, waited a few additional seconds and saw the reaction of the flamboyantly colored warriors.

They moved as one and fired spells in one hand, hinting immediately of their origins as Skarsneek vaguely recalled the division that does that. Immortals, at first, all of them joined in the fight before one broke off and then another.

He expected them to support the rest but instead, held their positions and kept their lookout instead.

Switching targets, Skarsneek burst into a full run. His footsteps nearly muted despite moving at his fastest but Skarsneek knew better that it'll fool them since they had some extra sensory in their arsenal.

So that's why he'll add a little more chaos to the mix, his arms moving in a spinning motion and building momentum with fishnet in hand.

Then leaping off a small rock for extra height, Skarsneek grinned as he threw the net at the thickest of the fighting, hoping to snatch or trap a few of the so-called Immortals for Kerry to quickly capitalize on it.

Meanwhile, he targetted the ones that split off and descending already from his jump. Going deeper, he dove to the ground, rolled and smoothly swung his club towards the knee cap while rising up in one swift motion. The club ringing against the armor like a gong as Skarsneek held nothing back in his blow.

Continuing on, Skarsneek grabbed the other club with his free hand and thrust it forward to the other Immortal. Then he swung the other downwards, continuing in a flurry of blows before splitting off and attacking the other. He had no intention of delaying, Skarsneek planned to bring the two of them down immediately if he can while they still had the initiative.

Gringor of the Ironhide tribe

Just as they're about to head out, it seems that their mad boy went nuts and started accusing them of their intentions.

"Youz got beat up, so spider lady and rabbit girl patched you up so you can go for another scrap." Gringor bluntly stated as he crossed his arms at that, slightly annoyed at this delay before his eye turning to the sides briefly in thought. "You did win, right?"

@Enkryption

Though at hearing the axe words, that had Gringor tilted his head for a moment before raising his weapon and swinging it down towards her at breakneck speed. The weapon wouldn't cut or kill due to its origin, but it was still enough to take her down.

Whether she dodge, catch or block, it didn't matter. Gringor would continue his attack with no hard feelings about it, almost like greeting someone.

It was a good time too, in Gringor opinion. He needed a warm-up before breakfast.

@AzureKnight

Right, on further thinking, Gringor will be joining the sisters and takeshi on Sorae mission.

"How did she look like?" Xiao Shan hummed as she placed a hand under her chin, listening to the man's words carefully and reading between the line.

She doubts whatever he did was actually legal nor righteous but it is what it is. Though what caught her attention the most was the usage of poison. That definitely fits the works of the Tang family, though whether this one was in isolation or exiled is outside of her knowledge. Patting both knees as she stood up, towering over the man and lifting him to his feet with barely any effort.

"Well," She looked to where he came from earlier. "Here? Lead the way back."

"You are coming for your boys, right?" Xiao Shan tilted her head to the opening of the bush, waiting for a moment before heading out. Not really caring if the person followed her or not, right now, finding this Tang mad woman is far more fun and interesting.

So with that, Xiao Shan traced back the steps. It wasn't particularly difficult either since he was more focused on running and thereby, left quite the trail. Getting closer and sniffing the air carefully, she adjusted the grip on her club and let it rest on her shoulder instead of it being used as a walking stick.

Alright, finally got mine out. Sorry for the long wait.

Skarsneek of the Red Hills

With that in mind, the four man team set out for their mission.

From afar, it looked peaceful and idyllic with the river. A real picturesque scenery as Skarsneek mused to himself.

Though that was soon broken when a kid approached them desperately, sweat, tears and out of breath as he panted out his plea to them.

"Don't worry." He patted the kid assuredly on the head and marched forward as he spied for any Varjans with narrowed eyes. "We'll get them."

Listening to the others, Skarsneek hummed for a moment as he quickly made a plan.

"We’ll do that but I am better when they don’t know I am there. You distract them first and do your thing, I’ll close in and sock them from behind." He detailed the plan further as he agreed on Kerry's course of action, simple but also allowing plenty of freedom in between.

Carefully staying out of sight, he finally caught sight of the Varjans and blinked a few times, these were different. Unlike the brigands, armored soldiers and knights, and champions, this was a new batch of unknowns to him. The footmen with bows was also another factor.

Hmm. A bonfire burnt brightly, something that he had a sinking suspicion but if that was the case. Then there was only one thing to do.

Skarsneek brought one of his clubs upwards. Seeing the house, and spying on a fishing net. He grinned as an idea popped in his head. Quickly moving, he grabbed the net and waited for Kerry to strike first before he’ll toss the net over to the blue-looking guys. Those looked the most dangerous out of the bunch.

Gringor of the Ironhide tribe

Gringor blinked multiple times when she just disappeared like that, it was unlike anything he had ever seen or experienced. Every bounty hunters or monster left something, but this was just something else entirely.

So curious was he by this phenomenon that he waved his hand to where Kageho just disappeared out of pure curiosity, Gringor nearly missed her question.

“Nah, he followed. No need to crack his head for now. Strong boi too.” Gringor muttered as he shifted around. “You better show up, or I’ll crack your head for real.”

With that, Gringor felt that he deserved a short rest for now. He had recruited two of the members, and he can prob get more depending on the mission tomorrow. So he headed back to the temple to turn himself in for the night.

When morning broke, Gringor shifted from his position of sleeping against the wall, and axe cradled close to him. Rising and getting the nicks outs by stretching his body, he marched out of the old stable house that he found.

Though from afar, he heard multiple panicked noises which drew his attention and moved steadily towards a tent. His nose caught a familiar scent for warriors long before he was close, making him scowl.

Gringor pushed the flap aside as he observe the wounds and cuts. Taking the small details before constructing how the fight went.

“Hmph, you barely won a scrap at least.” He spoke before leaving the tent, looking towards Takeshi, and told him of his progress. “Got your sneaky boi, she’ll come later.”

Gringor had half a mind to go and see to Nobutada but upon hearing a new presence talking about going on a mission, he turned to see the Spider lady. Alongside the unpleasant scent of that goblin all over her.

Humph. It was unbearable but what she spoke off intrigued him, seems like there's another fight ready to be done.

@AzureKnight

Approaching the two sisters, Gringor nodded to them and cut in without any hesitation. Indicating his interest in joining them, alongside Takeshi. "When we leave?"

Xiao Shan

The Hunt for the Madwoman

Xiao Shan was nearly out of the inn before his ears caught music being played. Stopping to look behind, there was a musician playing.

Taking it in, Xiao Shan closed her eyes for a moment. Letting imagination take place as the lyrics play out.

Then once it's over and she was deeplysatisfied. The musician had some chops to their skills it seems.

Grinning, she reached to the sides and produce a coin before concentrating. Estimating the distance, reach and power needed before she flicked the coin towards the musician. The coin soared through the air before landing perfectly on the lap, all of this without Xiao Shan ever turning back.

Hearing the clack of the coin hitting where she intended, Xiao Shan made a small pump of her fist as she grinned triumphantly and proudly at that before continuing on her journey to seek this mad woman.

With that behind, Xiao Shan made their way into the wilderness. The developed roads slowly turned into little dirt paths as she looked around her surroundings. It was a very good weather as well, perfect for just walking around. Xiao Shan idly thought as she picked a berry from a low-hanging branch, looked over it once before tossing it to the side.

Idly, she wondered if no one took the job because of how simply far and boring this job was.

The moment she finished those thoughts, her ears twitched and caught echoes of footsteps before someone came barreling out from a nearby bush.

That had her on edge since she should've caught his presence long before he even came but the man's begging for help as he was out of breath had her put aside that for now.

"Take a breath already, brother." Xiao Shan rested a hand on the thug-like person as she squat down to his level. Her demon-looking mask greeted him directly when he raised his head to look at her. In his state, it might look like a demon from hell.

"I can't hear a damn thing of what you just said."
