As the boat's hull dragged into the sands of the shallows younglings and older alkidike's were gathering either out of curiosity or hostility. Youngling's who had never left the island before were more likely curious or afraid, some hiding behind their older sisters. Spears bristled as well numerous arrows were notched and ready to fly, it didn't look promising.

No one moved however until Jerarda straightened herself and went to step out of the boat and into the water. Some arrows were lowered if for the only reason because they recognized their sister. The air was thick with suspicion, confusion, aggression and mingled with a tinge of fear. Outsiders were rare...only two others had ever come here and that was to beg for a child from Aisha. They too had been met with similar hostility but unlike them...Jerarda could be just as hostile towards those whom would threaten her.

Taking a step forward Jerarda gestured for Takoda to stand and for Rishima to get out of the boat. Already though the elders were coming, she could see them, as well sense every gaze turning towards their leaders though there were some warriors still fixated on the trio Jerarda felt herself relax somewhat seeing the elders, at least the shifter would be..out of their hair shortly. Though she wondered...giving him a look out of the corner of her eyes, if he was truly so serious about this sickness.

Moving towards the crowd she didn't get too far before she was signaled to stop. Showing the proper respect to the elders Jerarda spoke softly to the women. After all was said in done she informed them of what Takoda had requested, how he had willingly come as a prisoner and what he had wanted. There was some...anger through out them though Jerarda argued quietly with them. She had to stick to her guns, if there was some magical disease she would do her best to prevent her people getting it.

When the conversation got heated she had to deflect the anger from Rishima, after all she had expected some...uneasiness with a mix breed coming to the island but she had Yansa's opinion after all she was the one to test Rishima.

Soon the elders indicated Takoda was to be brought to them and that Rishima and Jerarda were to wait for them so that they could be spoken with next.
