Korra Post 3 The young girl felt herself shed her own tears, she should be embarrassed and she was truth be told about how bad her sense of direction was. But in a way she had to thank that part of her, because if it wasn't because of her getting lost in the first place she never would of found her new family in the first place. Feeling Ma Ta take ahold of her hand she gave it a squeeze, her gaze returning to her daddy as he proceeded to give her a gift. Guilt rose in her, how long had he been waiting to give her this? Better not ask. Lifting her free hand she poked at one of the bells that lined the necklace its soft tinkle made her smile. "Thank you daddy. I've missed you both so much." She managed trying not start crying again. At her Ma Ta's question she blushed slightly, "Ah...I've been...lost in the forests..of Jahaur.." The young woman managed sheepishly. "But I found this nice little town, but it seemed every time I tried to find home Naxiv would find me..and guide me back to that village. Oh...where is she?" Korra noted that the radaku had vanished from sight, probably uncomfertable with the amount of people here.

Aysun - Post 5 As a couple more bold people seem to be intent upon bothering Issaly the older Aysun found himself wondering if maybe he should have brought Maw with him... At least then they wouldn't be bothering the poor Shifter. He supposed that he in place of the big janarim, who was probably off playing with Abysio, he'd have to stand in. As such he kept an eye out and the next person about bug Issaly found find themselves flat on their face, Aysun having 'accidentally' tripped the up. Of course he apologized profusely so that others around them would hear him, not wanting to appear rude. Aysun got a few insults hurled his way for his efforts, the same old ones that involved his mixed blood, but he could care less. What mattered was that Issaly's modesty was protected the best that it could be without him starting an all out brawl. Not a good thing because if that happened his beasts might get involved. Not a mess that he wanted to start, especially on a day like today. He was already outcast enough on a good day without messing up an entire festival. Turning to Issaly he gave him a smile and asked, "Want to check out some games? I heard someone saying there is one where you can win cute little fish!" Not that he needed anymore pets himself, but he could still look, right?

Jacinthus - Post 4 Jacinthus wasn't certain who 'Naxiv' was but if he found this person he would be sure to drop kick them all the way back to Jauhar. Who would intentionally lead someone back to the same place over and over instead of actually being helpful? Whoever it was they were no friend to Jacinthus now that they had tried to keep his daughter from her home. Giving a little shake of his head he said, "Regardless of all of that you're safely back with us now and that is what matters most." He'd be even happier once they were all safely back in Yera, but for the time being where they were was fine lost long as they were there together. Glancing between the gathered members of his family he said, "Now that we are all together I feel we can enjoy the festival that much more. I still want to keep an ear out for any news about what the Cheifs are up to, but other then that we can have as much fun as the two of you would like." He'd even brought extra coin along just in case there was something that Takoda wanted. He was glad for that now since Korra was also here and might want to buy some things. "Is there anywhere the two of you want to look first?" He asked, not one for shopping a lot when it came to himself but he often times did so looking for gifts for the two of them.

Barihn Post 2
Barihn was still just as lost wandering around, curious about just what the chieftains were discussing. He'd always had an interest in politics of the people, even before he lived in the forest. Now that he was stuck out in the forest he just had to have his own politics. He was his own little tribe. A one man village. Unless one counted the animals as his people as well.
"I wonder what people would think of an animal village. I think I would be the best chieftain of the animal village," he drawled out, getting distracted by his own thoughts.

Dovev (Post 4)
~~~~~~~~~~"Yes..." Dovev said, relieved. A little knowledge about the local medicinal flora was more than he had. "This one is looking for healing herbs - the sort that could be easily processed into wound dressings and such by the untrained. Or, that could be processed for a price by the trained." Either case was good. "If you could advise this one, this one would be grateful."

SATHE Post 4
Sathe listened to the water earthling's description of what he was looking for, nodding her head slowly. Well that was an easy enough request, something she had learned as once of her first herbs being a healer. She blew out a quiet sigh, and here she thought it was going to be much tougher to help this guy out.
She looked back to the stall and scanned for the right one. "Ah, there!" She chirped out. She picked up a large leaf found in Tale, it was dark purple in color with a waxy surface and a jagged edge. "This one will help. You can tell it's the right one by the veins on the back of the leaf." She flipped it over and held it out for him to see. "One leaf crushed and mixed with a good amount of webwood oil and a couple drops of honey can be used for the dressings." She rolled off the recipe. It was really simple and something anyone could do.

Issaly- Post 5 Issaly slipped closer to Aysun somehow slipping under the others arm. Feeling Aysun's hand settle on his hip the slender healer felt a little more secure. As he heard the other male the youth hummed. "A game sounds fun. Let's go!" he smiled brightly. A few little fish to his small pack would be a nice calm addition.

Aysun - Post 6 As Issaly ducked under his arm Aysun couldn't help but to give a little smile, lifting a hand to ruffle his hair, messing it up slightly, "You don't have to worry, I will be the best stand in for Abysio that I can until we meet up with our beasts again." He told the Shifter in a reassuring manner. He felt hat, since their beasts weren't invited to the festival for obvious reasons that he should be the one to look after him in their place. Best not to let a bunch of weirdos bother him. If that happened Abysio might end up wanting to hunt down said weirdos to eat them... which wouldn't be the best way to wrap up a festival. It wouldn't reflect well on creatures from Oba either. Shaking his head to clear such dark, spiraling thoughts he instead turned his full attention to Issaly who was saying that the games sounded fun. Giving a nod of his head he moved to lead the way over to said games. Here was to hoping that he wouldn't have to fend off too many weirdos while playings games... though he would if he had to. Motioning to the game with the little fish that they came to stand in front of he said, "You go first." That way he could scope out the crowd and make sure that they were well away from those that he was looking out for. Being there were a lot of adults with their children around this particular game he was certain that it would be fine.

Issaly- Post 6 The small shifter let out a happy giggle as he knelt down to try his hand at the game. Showing off his more childish side the youth looked up to Aysun when his first attempt yeilded a small curled tail creature called a Piplet. "Aysun look!!" he held the small jar out for the other to see as he won his little prize. "Its adorable! I've seen them before...didn't know you could actually make a nice little decoration out of them..." He sorta wanted a few more...the small creature was a energetic little thing.

Dovev (Post 5)
~~~~~~~~~~Dovev observed her actions and listened to her words and tried his best to commit them to memory, because they were indeed simple, yet very important and not a skill - or a knowledge - that he posessed. He had been fortunate to nearly run into this woman, just as she had been fortunate that he hadn't actually run into her. He took the leaf and looked at the veins - indeed, they were distinctive. He handed it back, mentally setting a price in his head that he wouldn't mind going too far over. "And which is webwood? This one assumes that it is a plant...?" he asked. If the plant was sold at the stall, it would be a good idea to purchase it. At the very least, it would be a good idea to be able to recognize it when he was in the Tale - it was clearly important and that made it a good trade good. Of course, if the oil was sold at this stall, then it would be very efficient indeed to shop here. Honey, at least, he knew, and he had seen a stall selling it. Very sweet stuff. Tasty. Could be brewed into mead. He hadn't realized that it could be a topical medicine... Interesting, he thought That it has so many uses.

SATHE Post 5
He looked like he was trying to soak it all in, in turn asking for more details. It had Sathe thinking. Making webwood oil was actually pretty hard, she mulled it over in her head.
"Well... webwood is a type of tree. You can get a small handful of roots - they're super thin and outrageously numerous, kinda shaped like a web where is where it gets its name-" Sathe felt herself falling off into a tangent and tried to bring it back. "-But! Yeah, it's pretty difficult to make, so I would suggest just buying it already processed. If you want I can walk you through making it, but this stall sells the oils." She pointed to an olive tinted liquid in one of the vials on the herbalist's stall.

Vers
Compared to the usual yearly meeting, it seemed as is this year was a brief one. It was only a couple of hours after the start that the doors to the meeting hall opened and the chieftains emerged. The sun was only just starting to wane, barely late afternoon, when they quieted the crowd. "It's been a prosperous year." one of the chieftains called out to the crowd. It was the chieftain of Vers. "The spirits are happy with Tale, and have promised a better year to come." The resident shaman of Vers followed up behind the chieftain's words.
It was then that the leaders of the villages called for the bonfires to start. The time to celebrate was finally at hand, and clusters of fires were started for all to enjoy. The vendors brought out their special brews and offered their special treats to the children.

Aysun - Post 7 Aysun gave a smile, following along after Issaly as he went over to the fishing game. He wanted to resist himself, telling himself that he had plenty of pets as it was and that he didn't need anymore. He told himself that but upon seeing some of the odd little creatures he couldn't resist trying at least once or twice! Who could fault him? Just look at them! He gave a happy sound in his throat and said, "They are really adorable! As much as I know that I shouldn't try for another pet surely one more wouldn't hurt at this point?" What was one more when he already had a small army? He set to playing the game alongside Issaly and some others, most if not all of them younger then Aysun himself. He didn't mind though, finding great fun in the game. In fact it held his attention for a time, at least until he heard word that it was time to hear from the Chiefs after their meeting. Motioning to Issaly he hurried to where others were gathering, eager to hear the news, and good news it was. Upon hearing that the spirits were happy with Tale and that the year ahead was going to be even better then the last one he lifted his fingers to his lips, giving a joyous whistle in response. Turning to Issaly he smiled and said, "That was great news to hear! So here's to the coming year and all the prosperity that will come along with it!" He'd definitely have to tell Chandra the news once he caught up with his brother his (slightly) older brother next. Surely it was news that he'd be happy to hear as well since he knew that his brother was having a bit of a rough patch. Any good news should help!

Issaly- Post 7 As Issaly caught two more little fishes he sorta thought they looked like twins. Humming he stood to look over at the cheering and the results of the meeting. The little shifter got excited as well. It was always good to know the spirits were on your side. As he let out a few cheers he turned to Aysun. Leaning up to kiss the bigger male on the cheek he blushed as he squeaked pulling back. "S-sorry!" he gathered himself before nodding. "Y-yeah! Its amazing...always good when the spirits are favoring your home..." he was still blushing.

Aysun - Post 8 Lifting a hand he set to ruffling Issaly's hair after the boy gave him a kiss on the cheek, "Heh, no problem. Come on, now that we know that things are going to be going well this year we should celebrate! Maybe we can try out some of the drinks that the vendors are serving up now! Just one though." He knew that alcohol had an interesting history in his family and he'd rather not risk more then just a single drink personally. After a few steps he gave a humming sound then asked, "Wait, are you actually old enough for such things?" He gave Issaly a thoughtful once over, feeling that it was likely debatable. maybe he was too young for such things? He tapped a finger against his lips then said, "You know what, maybe we can find something else to do instead." Something that was more friendly for the younger crowd? Snapping his fingers he said, "How about see about gathering our beasts? We can make sure they are behaving."
