He shifted his grip on his squirmy, small older sister. Alois put the little fireball in a standing Full Nelson. "Stop squirmin'! I ain't lettin' you out there!" he hissed. He was too preoccupied with Thyra's wrestling form to listen to the others speak. "Oum dammit! Stay still, woman!" The white haired boy approached Thyra with vigor since they shared interests in storms. "Oh, hell no! Get away from my sister!" he commanded to boy. He wasn't about to deal with two Thyra's. The hot-headed dread-head quirked an eyebrow at him and asked, "What in the world are you talkin' about fairies?" He made a face of incredulous confusing. "No she is NOT going out there! All she's gonna do it moan and gripe about how she can't get her hair to behave after it frizzes and I ain't dealin' with it!" Alois says. "What the hell is this guy talkin' about? Magic firefly? Who's mans is this!?" he thought. "I hope whatever we're doing gets started soon. This whole situation is an unknown and I don't like unknowns." he said thinking about the shuffling he heard a few minutes ago. Someone is here and he has questions for them. As his sister tenaciously fights against his hold his spins her uncontrollably to disorientate her before she tried her trump card: biting Which she shared with Peninnah. What is up with the females and chomping flesh?

After some time and sorting, with some students having a more rebellious nature than others Thyra heart, everyone would find themselves traversing the short hallway to the door from which the smell of food emanated from. The dim light of the lanterns and smell of incense gave an almost mystical feeling to the students; and perhaps foreboding or anticipation for what lay beyond the door. It was a simple one like the one up front; a simple sliding screen door. The glow of light seeped through from behind it but little else. All seemed relatively silent for the moment; though now all could smell the faint scents of food beyond the door. Whoever chose to open the door first would find no resistance to the act, and it would reveal a large room dotted with short tables and small pillows besides them.
It was not just one room, but seemed to be a series of rooms from what they could tell; the sliding doors that would divide them being open for the time being. Directly across, at the far end, they could see an area partially sunken into the ground that seemed more a general seating area than anything else. While the tables directly in front of them held no food, the scent of it was now strong in the air; a variety of dishes from what they could tell. Those with a keen sense of smell and culinary knowledge could pick out meats, vacuoan spices, and other such ingredients. Once they proceeded further in the room, they would be greeted with the sight of a buffet of food before them. Fish, meat, vegetables, fruit, and desserts all stacked upon one table in the center room; being long enough to seat them all.
For those curious, or determined enough to continue, that would approach the table they would find a simple note on the table. "Welcome Wyrmlings, I am pleased that you all could make it. Please, take a seat and enjoy the food. I shall be joining you all shortly; there are just some last minute preparations I must attend to. I hope you enjoy the food; I did my best to have dishes all of you could eat. Your instructor, Sinn." The students now had their choice of what to do while they awaited Sinn; eat, chat, dry off, or whatever they desired. For the time being, they would find a few other screen doors that led back to the center building dark and closed off. The door on the far end of this series of room, across from where they entered, was currently closed though they could hear the rain and storm brewing outside of it.

Sváfnir grinned lightly as his cousin punched his arm and genuinely seeming to show concern, which didn't really strike Sváfnir as odd but was not expected. "Feel better?....You're acting dumber than usual, you better not be getting sick." As I have told the little Rose I am fine Pen Pen and besides you of all should know sickness has never stopped me. Though I must say the concern for your tribesman is quite touching Nina. Sváfnir grinned doing his best to put on a show so Peninnah would be at ease. The nose of the Warrior caught scent of the familiar meats and spices and suddenly he remembered he skipped breakfast. Peni I don't know about you but something smells delicious. A gesture to his cousins before he would take point down the hall to where his nose led him, a small difficulty getting the door open with the wounds he hid easy enough, though to his displeasure was not where the food was but instead an area partially sunken into the ground. Sváfnir trudged further into the room, strung along by the now overly enticing smell of food no doubt, the Warrior stopped and stared in awe of the sight of this gorgeous buffet. Hey over here! There is food! Sváfnir, usually the first to take to the buffet went to take a step towards the oasis but held himself finding something about the whole thing very odd, waiting for the others Sváfnir looked to Peninnah as if he had wished to speak but changed his mind and began looking around.

Peninnah was distracted only a little with the twins before she would pay attention to her cousin. His demeanor sparked a flame that reflected in her crimson eyes."You jerk!"She thought before growling softly...before refraining from tackling Svaf right then and there, even though her fingers twitched as if desiring to deck him. She would then sighed and gave him a stern glare."Concern has nothing to do with it...But if I find out you're lying, I'll report you to Eydis,"Peninnah said in all seriousness before his comment as they walked further in; temporarily forgetting the others behind them.
Frowning slightly, she would sniff the air as well"It can't be,"she thought, not daring to hope, but so wishing it to be true."Home,"Peni murmured under her breath as they got closer, visibly relaxing then tensing slightly. At the door, she would assist with her strength and her cousin's as they would open it, standing at either side of it once it was opened fully. The scents that permeated the air now wafting into the hall they had once been standing in.
At the sight of the sitting area, she would look to Svaf and then the others. Peninnah smiled at the rest."Everyone, it's safe to come in, but keep your guards up,"The petite young woman informed them, probably unnecessary, but true none-the-less. She would then walk further in with the others and her family members to go and find where the food was, further in, smiling when her cousin shouted; but, more importantly, than the foods of home, there seemed to be a few towels by the tables of mouth-watering Vacouian morsels. Crimson eyes would glance around as she would walk over to the towels, picking a couple up before turning to the group and walking back."Here, take these."She would tell each one that looked like they had been most wet before going on t to the next. If she shared Nirie's concern, she didn't show it...for now.

Oh my~... Temper was certainly a play in a lot of these interesting people! Narky could see that much, but was still having such a thought integrated in his mind. Calm as stilled water, the young dragonling kept himself calm, even towards this other guy getting snappy at him for approaching them. The command wasn't on deaf ears however, as Narky had simply regarded the command with a small nod. "Ah! a non-believer. That is alright sir. Not everyone may see the splendors of fairies! But I have no wishes of harming a princess who wishes to experience the wonderous elements of the outside. Rain is the cleansing of stress, and the free spirit of fun. Perhaps we can help should her hair get in such a way! I know uhm.. Not much about hair, but maybe helping afterwards could help!" Having been oblivious to their earlier arguing, Narky was still in the dark towards their relationship of brother and sister, and the amount of words they exchanged. With so much to look at and see, as well as the current conditions, missing out on a lot of things perceptively was a sure thing to happen quite a bit. The idea thrown out there was simply one meant to be in good nature. Whether it had come across that way or not, it was unknown, as the two were to a point that Thyra had began on biting him! "Oh!" Was the temper so severe that biting was another part of the angering process!? Was the temper they all had spoken of, some sort of disease that caused biting!?!? Such a sight had the young man wondering in complete awe. "Have we all bitten somebody!? Is that the reason we are really here?!?" Had he bit someone in his sleep and not know it!? The more he tried to think on it, the more his head was beginning to hurt. IT wasn't easy trying to think back so far! Then again, if he was asleep, he wouldn't know in the first place. One sure thing was, the mentioning from Alois on the unknown essence of this place had brought his mind to shift away from biting, to the curiosities of what this place possibly held. The unknown entities possibly hiding in this place, built up that curiosity. Rather than be unnerved, Narky was more goal oriented to know just when was unknown here. Even a little bit of information was something he would have loved to pick up on. Anything that could clarify any questions those in the room held onto. So far no one knew too much aside from the sign outside. What else could possibly be here? Anything as truly mystifying as he had hoped??
The smell of food heading there way had distracted that. The smell was certainly of meat, no doubt about that. He was not the only one either who could pick out the scent of it all. Svaf, the male with the two girls he was associating with, had been the first to lead on towards its jackpot. At first, the smell of meat had him rather dissatisfied. unsure what all was upon the buffet table of foods. It was not until he had followed others in after Penninah had announced it safe, had he decided to take a look. Only seeing meat on first sight, relief had hit him as he noticed another sort of plates! Vegetables!!! Unlike everyone else perhaps in this room, Narky was a full on vegetarian. Eating meat was something his stomach liked to talk back about, as well as he found it wrong to eat an animal. With the dangers of grimm out and about, Narky felt it immoral to eat a more innocent creature! He respected others who may eat meat, and had no qualms, but it wasn't his personal preference to eat such things himself. Before he could begin grabbing a plate, and digging in, he was interrupted by Penninah returning over to him with a towel. "Thank you miss!" he had smiled bright, taking it in appreciation. Setting it upon his head, he had towel wrapped his hair, before going ahead and fetching a plate. "Yay!! Salad! Steamed potato! Diced carrots and peas!" Truly a favored meal choice by the dragon boy of story-telling. Grabbing a few spoon and forkfuls of each vegetable choice, he had made wat to the sitting area, taking a seat nearest to the food table. It was then he had seen the note, reading it silently to himself, just as he had no time at all to put a spoonful of lettuce into his mouth. "What mysterious words!!!" Someone else was joining them!? With his mouth full of lettuse, he tried calling to the others who hadn't made way over yet, with a large piece of lettuce dangling out of his mouth. "Efwebudy!!! The's a noot ofa her! Ta Fawey fwoke haf gwented uf a gust!" (Everybody! There's a note over here! The fairy folk have granted us a guest!) That's what he had believed anyway. After a few more bites of lettuce though, he had finally taken time to remove the towel from his hair, and work on drying his clothes with the cloth.

Bad enough she had to deal with a soak and wet Narky, but she had to now step into the sibling mess because she wasn't liking what she was hearing. "Hey! Don't talk to him like that!" She budded in. She knew Narky was just trying to be helpful and encourage Thyra to cool off, but it seems that he should have maybe not budded in. Narky was innocent. So it didn't dawn on him to just stay out of it. "Just leave it be honey. Let's just focus on you getting dried off before it becomes an issue." She needed not have to bail her teammate out of a situation. Whether it be an alteration with the brother and sister or becoming ill. Plus no telling what was going on in that extensive mind of his. She hoped for a distraction of some kind to get them away from all of this. She had to be honest all the waiting around was making her pretty impatient. Plus on top of that, she was holding on to the letters she could make out from outside. What was this place and why were they all here was her true questions?
As the door opened up, the smell of food became more evident. Her stomach growled reminding her of its' emptiness. As she followed the others, she heard Penninah said it is safe, but keep their guard up, which she was already doing away. There was no way she was becoming relaxed in such an unfamiliar place. Even if it was wonderous and beautiful, it was better to be alert to what was happening. The smell of the food was welcoming for sure. Narky was offered a towel by Penninah and Pyrve was grateful. "Thank you." She said politely. A chuckle came from her lips as Narky wrapped the towel around his head and proceeded to make himself food. She followed suit to appease her stomach. Taking a seat with him, she indulged in the food that was piled up on her plate. Eating, she heard him say something and she fell out laughing because he had food hanging out his mouth. "Narky darling. I didn't understand a word you said." She told him after she had recovered from from her laughing fit. "Could you repeat that without a mouth full of food?" She requested as he continued to dry himself.

She would say she came to Beacon not by choice and that had she not arrived, she would be hunted down. 'What purpose would someone have by threatening someone to attend Beacon?' he wondered to himself thoughtfully. While he could come up with no answers to that, the story only grew more peculiar; she was kidnapped by bandits after her ship crashed before she was eventually rescued. 'Is it all related or separate?' Pyrrhus wondered to himself, but again had no answers. And little time to think of any; as he now had to retrieve Svafnir. Thankfully, Svafnir would listen to the warning and call of his relatives and head in from the rain; thanking Pyrrhus and calling him Red as he did so. Something Pyrrhus, for the time being, didn't see fit to correct for now as he would follow him inside. Water was still dripping from him and his armor, his hair pressed down a bit as well; nowhere near as soaked as Narky or Svafnir were though in comparison. 'At least we'll all be out of the rain now; assuming Thyra doesn't run out here at least,' he thought to himself. As he stood by the doorway for now, trying to dry himself off by brushing off the excess water, he would note Lady Penninah punch Svafnir and seem to exchange some words with him. While he wasn't sure what the words were, he could tell there seemed to be some concern for him; or so he hoped at the very least.
As things calmed down, much as they could with Thyra and Alois in a room together, one of the final people would introduce themselves; Narkyena. He would greet them, forgetting if he said his name earlier, explain he did not have a temper like most people here, before saying he hoped a firefly guided him to meet them. Then having to double check if he was awake or dreaming. 'He is a strange and interesting fellow; but harmless and good company nonetheless,' Pyrrhus thought to himself. And with that, alone with the call for a towel, they were off; Penninah and Svafnir taking the lead to reach deeper into the building. There was a slight altercation between Narkyena and Pyrve with Alois but it seems to have stopped...for now at least. As Pyrrhus followed after, being towards the rear of the group, he would feel a bit mystified by the atmosphere of the hallway. The dim light and smell of incense made it almost seem like a spiritual journey down the path; with the sliding door at the end having light seeping from the cracks around its frame only add to the feeling. Though, once closer, Pyrrhus too could smell food and hear it voiced by others. While he had a snack earlier to eat...real food was not something he had much of on their trip here, and his stomach growled quietly. Food was definitely a positive as he mostly forgot he was still a bit wet.
As the doors opened and light flooded down the hall, Pyrrhus struggled to see past the people to the actual room. He would hear Lady Penninah say it was safe to enter but to have their guards up, and as he followed he would hear Svafnir say there was food shortly after. Judging by his voice, he approved of the food as well. Following in calmly yet alert, Pyrrhus would note the seating areas directly by and across from them; wondering where the food was till he followed the turn everyone took to see a veritable feast! Food of all kinds were present at the table; seeming like there was a feast for everyone truthfully. His stomach growled louder this time at the sight as his mouth watered. As Pyrrhus entered, he would be offered a towel by Lady Penninah. "Thank you," he would say with sincerity and use it to wipe himself dry as best he could for a minute or so. He did not share the apprehension of Penninah and Svafnir though as he saw Pyrve and Narkyena eating; taking a seat at a nearby table and getting a plate for himself with a variety of food on it. He would eat rather calmly, going at the food slow and thoughtfully. It really did taste as good as it looked. Looking over to his team, he would raise his voice slightly. "You guys should grab a bite; the food is great," he would recommend aloud before returning to the food. He would hear something be said by Narkyena, who had a mouthful of lettuce, but he could not truly understand it. Hearing Pyrve ask him to repeat it again, with a mouth that wasn't fully, Pyrrhus was content to wait it out to hear what Narkyena desired to say. ♞ Post count: 30 ☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀.☀ ▄ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ ▄

As the student were milling about in varying states in the "Dining room", they would hear the sound of heavy thunder from beyond the screen door. It seems the storm had picked up in intensity since their short trip deeper into the shrine. Along with it though, for those not eating yet and paying attention to that far door, they would note something else as well; a brief flash of light from beyond it for just a fleeting moment. Fleeting enough to question whether it actually occurred or not. Seconds after, the screen door would seem to shudder a moment before it would be pulled open. As if on cue, a flash of lightning struck not too far and illuminated the dark and rain filled eve; revealing a towering figure at the door. A giant of a man stood in the doorway; taller than anyone else in the room (though only a little more than Alois). In his right hand was a large, black-metal cricket bat that had water dripping off its end. Over his left shoulder, with his left arm wrapped around it, was a large log. Walking into the room calm and confidently, Sinn would be wordless as he would walk over to the far end of the room (yet to be explored) and set the wood down there. Those looking to him would note he he had brown hair that seemed to be transitioning to red, a pair of horns on his head, and on the very end of his arm is the bottom of a tattoo; the rest covered by his garments (post format image). From his attire itself, the opening itself revealed he seemed to be fairly muscular; even if the outfit itself hid most of his body. His face seemed aged, and what skin showed looked akin to leather; despite his strength and build, it was clear he was by no means young.
With his immediate task seemingly done, he would wordlessly walk back to the screen door and seal it; hiding away the rain and storm. Till this point, he seemed to be mostly ignoring them in favor of his immediate tasks. Turning to the students, water dripping off him but not seeming to bother him, he would look to them all with a smile. "Welcome, Dragonlings, to my humble abode. I am glad most of you could make it; we seem to be missing a few but no matter," His eyes would turn from those sitting to those still standing. "Please, have a seat and eat; I assure you the food is good," he would say, before his attention went back to them as a whole. "I am sure you all have many questions, so lets get them out of the way now. I am Sinn Myers, and I will be in charge of you all while we are here. You are all here for one reason or another, but it all amounts to one thing; to better your abilities individually and with others. Over this next week, you will train and compete against one another in a series of trials tailored to your group. I will be watching over your progress, and will be the only instructor during this time. Any questions?" he would ask of them after he spoke and explained what was to come in general. His eyes in particular seemed piercing and wizened as he looked from one student to the next; as if they had seen many life-times worth of experience. His gaze would also seem to lay on Svafnir longer than some others but only slightly. He expected plenty of questions to come, and was prepared.
Rosa followed behind Peni and Svafnir as they both walked toward the smell of food, Rosa was still very worried about her cousin but she let it go, for now, knowing Peni knew how to handle it better than anyone else in the room, and even if she really wanted to she couldn’t focus over the overwhelming smell of meat ’ it smells just like when I cook for Peni~ her mind was practically drooling as her sister told them it was safe to come in “yay~! oh… oh I said it out loud” she blushed a little as she sat down in front of the food as she picked up the juiciest piece of steak she could find next to her before getting a towel from Peni which made her smile brightly as she took a bite of her chunk of meat on her plate, her mind was slowly forgetting about Svafnir’s weird actions earlier on and was put at ease, with both her sister and her cousin there with her she knew she didn’t need to worry much.
Rosa would continue eating before suddenly seeing an adult figure coming in and calling them dragonlings… dragonlings? It was definitely weird to hear that but after a few moments, it made much more sense as she glanced at Peni’s legs ’ does that mean… I will change as well?’ she thought while being full of curiosity as she continued to listen to the man who is known as Sinn, but very quickly her curious expression changed into a worried one “c-compete against one another? B-but there is no way I can win against such skillful people here…” she said quietly but loud enough for her sister to hear though her heart almost stopped completely as she noticed Sinn’s gaze, her hand was quickly shot towards Peni’s as she tried to hold it as tight as she could, she was scared and it was too clear to fake.

Sváfnir Nuntis Son of Agmundr & Eydís
Those who bare the mark of the Dragon....
Sváfnir could not silence the chuckle as he saw Peninnah struggle with herself of whether or not hit him. The Warrior felt his cousin has been teased enough and presses on. Sváfnir caught wind if the slight altercation between the white haired boy backed by a white haired female vs another more volatile female. Moving forward a silent gratitude is given to Peninnah with a nod as she helped with the door before the feast was revealed. The sensation of an eery deja vu and sense of foreboding took over him as the others began to fill in and around the tables and eat, what was going on? And why did the sight of food effect the Warrior as it did? Sváfnir didn't understand but he would try to relax the best he could for now.
The Warrior chose a spot with his eyes and made his way over to a distant table to the sides under, as to see everyone, his way of letting the energy of the room ease his mind, sound of lightning normally would bring a smile to the young Warrior but he would be not so pleased when the silhouette of a giant that seem to fill the space between the doorway. Sváfnir stares as the man enters letting the light illuminate his features, it was easy to tell the man was a veteran warrior with years more than all the students combined but that only made Sváfnir excited.
"Welcome, Dragonlings, to my humble abode. I am glad most of you could make it; we seem to be missing a few but no matter...Please, have a seat and eat; I assure you the food is good.....I am sure you all have many questions, so lets get them out of the way now. I am Sinn Myers, and I will be in charge of you all while we are here. You are all here for one reason or another, but it all amounts to one thing; to better your abilities individually and with others. Over this next week, you will train and compete against one another in a series of trials tailored to your group. I will be watching over your progress, and will be the only instructor during this time. Any questions?" The male said in a voice that struck Sváfnir as slightly awesome from it's tone...slightly.
Sváfnir did not let the linger however slight it was go unnoticed, as excited as he was Sváfnir found his body slightly unresponsive do the the headache thatcame after hearing the man's name...Sinn Myers. First to speak in his moment of thought was none other than little Rose who's words were less than ideal. Sváfnir rose after his little cousin with a smile to counter her lack of confidence. Once on his feet Sváfnir's felt a heavy wave rush over his body confusing Sváfnir as he stared at the man, though his desire to speak currently outweighed his confusion allowing him to talk. What makes you think you are worthy enough to take on the teachings of us? Like any other warrior here I am all for the betterment of my abilities but, given the circumstances, I am not keen on wasting time on someone who has bitten of more than he can handle. Sváfnir stared hard in a challenging manner. How exactly do you think you can improve us in a week by yourself...I take training very seriously and I know it takes dedicated time to truly improve, so with you being the only instructor and all you must be over compensating for something, and that kind of mind is a sign of a weakling. Sváfnir says with a look that went from his toes to his head gesturing he was directly implying he saw the man as both a weak and disillusioned.
Peninnah would only pay very little attention to the others. Rolling her eyes at her team leader and his over-reaction."Idiot,"She thought before they entered room. Now inside though, towels passed out (nodding politely when thanked) and others getting food, she would look to the others before crimson eyes looked around searchingly. After enough prodding, she would give in."Seems fine enough,"Peninnah agreed. With that, she would grab a plate with a fair amount of meats and veggies...dressing said veggies with honey before sitting with Svafnir."Well s**t,"she thought surprised with the doors sliding open.
A well-built, much older warrior male walked in, completely ignoring them, her hand reached for her ax just in case. She would pause in her action though as her cousin seemed to react like he was seeing Agmundr's equal. Though she was excited as well, she controlled herself better. Looking at Rose as she spoke, she sighed as being a gentle, she knew her sister was not a fighter unless cornered. Then her cousin spoke and had her shaking her head."Sit,"Peni instructed, using the handle of her axe to knock him in the knees just right to get him to sit; if he didn't have his stance right for balance, he just might fall."First...We thank you first for the food. But, my cousin has a point of interest,"The petite young woman said,"I am curious as well."She then would take a sip of the Vacuoian tea she had poured for herself; basically, a prickly pear herbal tea as she waited.

It seems that the storm had gotten worse. Thank goodness she got Narky inside before then. Last thing she needed was having to deal with lighting. Eating, she wasn't paying much attention to the door until she hear the wood being sat down. That is when her eyes snapped in Sinn's direction. Who was he and where had he come from? Observing him, she took in every detail of his appearance including the horns on his head. He was a Faunus. A very elderly, but pretty strong Faunus. He was carrying wood. That is no easy feat to just carry logs of wood. It seems he had been ignoring them to get his work done. Since he wasn't speaking, she decided to go back to her meal.
The moment he did speak, she dropped her fork. "Dragonlings? His house?" Her mind was reeling at this point. Sinn Myers....The name rung a bell and she was trying to dig through it while continuing to listen to his words. He was going to have them compete against each other and train. He will be the only person instructing them. That was laughable. "Yeah I agree with the others. Some of us have been battling it out in classes, tournaments and missions. We don't take anything lightly. Anyhow while I am speaking, I can't seem to put on finger on the pulse, your name sounds familiar. I just can't seem to get my brain to bring it to the forefront yet. You called us Dragonlings. I see a room full of humans besides you. You've answered the question as to what we'll be doing while we are here, but you haven't answered my question as to why we are here. So...why are we here? What makes this group so special?" Her ruby red eyes were fixed upon him. Her plate pushed to the side by now, Her head slightly titled to the side. It was clear she was sharp.

Sinn's gaze passed yet studied each and everyone in the room as he awaited a response. He noted some whispering between two of the girls, the sisters taken in by the Yowlumne if he recalled correctly, and the fear that struck one of them just by a simple gaze. 'Fearful at a glance...while it is wise to not underestimate an opponent, one should not express fear so easily,' he thought to himself, noting it as one thing to address later on. As he was about to continue on, hearing no questions, he would pause as one of the boys rose; a familiar one at that. As the man spoke, Sinn internally found the dissent amusing; he had been expecting one or two of them to not go along quietly with things. Outwardly, however, his face remained impassive and piercing. He would question if Sinn could truly train them, just by himself, and challenged him that he would not be up for the task. Looking him up and down, but failing to consider his own state and in reading his opponent it seemed. And, as was almost as if it were timed, more voices would pipe up as well. Penninah, the elder sister from the Yowlumne, would attempt to reign Svafnir in and get him seated but also express that she was curious. There was one final one to take up the challenge as well; Pyrve. Though her challenging went a little different; she seemed to be questioning everything about this? 'She is either dimmer than expected or more insightful than expected,' he thought to himself. He also found it amusing how she claimed he hadn't answered her question, when this was the first time she chose to even ask it. He was tempted to ask if she had even read the invitation as it would've answered most of her questions. For now, however, he withheld.
His gaze would turn from Pyrve back to all of them in general now. "Good, I was worried this would be simple and Beacon's reports on some of you were false. I am not wasting my time here at least," he would say in general, clearly addressing Svafnir and Pyrve here. His eyes would then turn back to Pyrve first. "Before I answer your questions, I ask this; did you truly read the letter? The entire training is called the Tournament of the Dragon, as is the theme of it. As was mentioned on the letter as well, you are all here due to your performance in Beacon. While you may be disappointed to hear this, that is the truth of the matter of why Aurtrox allowed me to train you here," he would say in an even and measured tone, no emotion to it as it was clear what the message from it was. Before anyone could really speak, his gaze would go back to Svafnir now. "To address your concerns on if I am able to manage training you all, and if it is worth your time...Come Dragonling, as you've yet to earn the title of Dragon. I challenge you to hit me, one hit, as hard as you can. In return, I get to do the same. No aura or weapons," he would challenge the disrespectful Svafnir. To which Svafnir would accept the challenge. Waiting, his body seeming in a relaxed stance, Sinn made no move whatsoever as his eyes remained on Svafnir. The young warrior would charge him and leap with a heavy over the top knee strike towards Sinn's collar. It was an impressive display, but as the blow made contact...Sinn would only be budged slightly as it hit his shoulder, no expression of pain or discomfort. The giant of a man had hardly moved from the blow itself, and as Svaf landed facing him, Sinn's expression remained cold but with a slight smile at the edge of his lips. "My turn," he would simply say as he would uppercut Svafnir and send him flying up into the air only to crash hard into a table as the other end of the room; the table breaking on impact. "When starting a fight, you should not underestimate your opponent. Doing so may cost you your life; especially when you are already wounded," he would say as his eyes turned to the rest of them.
"You want to be assured I can train you and it is not a waste of your time," he would say before his eyes would turn to Pyrve. "Rise, Pyrve. If you want answers, then earn them. You have ten seconds to get me to my knees or to the floor. I will not attack you during such time. You shall use your weapon, your body, or both; whichever you prefer. If you fail to do so, however, then I get the same opportunity. Prove to me that you have nothing to be taught, and you may leave with my approval of passing this training to Beacon. Prove that you are more than just empty words," he would challenge her, leaving Svafnir to recover on his own for now. His eyes remaining on her as he would set his own cricket bat aside onto a nearby table. Ready and waiting for her to begin. [For Pyrve, please roleplay out her full attempt to get him down; assuming it may take many attempts to do so, but do not post a success. I shall determine how successful it is.]

Oh… so her worries about her reason being here are true, her performances were lacking and she needed to improve, while that is something she was already aware of she did not understand why her sister needed to be here, she is already an amazing fighter after all! But then Svafnir decided to get up and challenge the man in front of them “Svafy t-that’s not-“ she was about to warn him but quickly silent up as Peni ordered him to sit down, in the end, the result they were looking for was the same but Peni’s way of doing so would be much more effective on someone like Svafnir, but even then it seemed to be useless. As a result of Svafnir’s actions, he was lunched towards a table, breaking it on impact. Rosa’s eyes widened up as she rushed towards him, she seemed faster than she usually is, something about helping her family simply ignited her spirit “Svafy!” she would yell before finally getting to him, pulling out a first aid kit from her bag while trying to look for any major injury, if its anything small she knew Svafnir could take it, even more, he would be mad if she did treat it. while checking his body out for anything she could notice the wraps around his hands were a bit lose as she could see what’s underneath, it shocked her at first but after already seeing this happening to Peni she sighed in relief “and here I was worried about you so much. Why couldn’t you just tell me, you meanie?” she would pout and lightly tap his shoulder with her fist. She could finally stop worrying about him. Out Of Creativity: finally posted… sorry >.>’

Someone knew the right vegetables!!! Narky was all too happy to be stuffing his face. He was forgetting to chew his food though, and when Pyrve had asked him to repeat, as well as to remember to not talk with his mouth full.... Narky couldn't help himself. The case was more so, having been distracted by such a pretty laugh she had. What had he done to make her laugh though? Was Pyrrhus also awaiting an answer as well? So when he began on speaking, he had almost choked on his food. "OOf!!!!!" The happy bliss of fresh vegetables had him wanting to take his time, and savor the food!! How convenient there was also salt and pepper about!!! Fantasizing was all he wanted to do, but the first priority of chewing had to be done!!!! "Sowwy!!! Thif fud sho gud!!!!" Finally taking time to chew and swallow, the young man had beeb about to read the note aloud. Reading things altogether was a specialty!!!! The whole ride there he wanted to read something to all!!! Having had no chance to, the timing felt right. Perfect, given the setting of the room among the others... Well.... Minus the one young lady... Penninah? The one who offered towels? Yes her... Calling someone an idiot. Nothing like a good story to, as they say, raise the roof!!!! Apparently this time around, the chance to read was moot.
Just after he had finally swallowed his food, and had prepared himself to read, the most mythical sighting had happened before them all. "Wooooooooah!!!!!!!" Eyes going wide like saucers, the man appearing into the room had left the young boy mixed with so many emotions. Tall, bearing a bat in their hand, a log in the other, and bearing horns upon their head~~~ Quite a bit of it was a lot to take in, but for the most part, he was excited. The dragon concept itself was a fleeting pass of mind by the impression the man had upon them. This was no dragon!!!! At least to Narky. This man was looking more like any oni, which built excitement, but also scared him a bit. "This was a demon's home all along!!!!" Bolting from his chair, the poor guy was scurrying to every table, grabbing all the salt shakers. This man wasn't going to be taking his soul anytime soon!!!! Of course, among this scurrying, forgetfulness was playing another big factor, as it should have been clear that their host was a host, and not only that, but a faunus. Only when Sinn had began to speak to them all, had he stalled on his moving about. Welcoming them all as dragonlings had been the ringer on returning his focus back to what was going on. "What is this oni talking about? Instructing us on through... trials!? Competing!? We aren't about to fight for our lives after this meal are we!?" Rather than ask anything, the fixation was more towards being called a dragonling. Dragons had horns, and wings!!! He couldn't be one, as he had neither or those things! Almost voicing concern, Rosa had beat him to the punch. She made an exclamation he felt one hundred percent agreeable to! Others however, were showing a different sort of reaction to this. Svaf was.... Was he challenging him!? "The oni may crush you!!! He's got a bat!!" Was the issue concerning the oni being by himself to train them a real issue!? If it were Narky, he was tempted to ask him not to eat their souls! No one else was most likely this though. They were the more sane people. Penninah was the next to speak, voicing out that Svaf had a point. Narky wasn't one for training too much, but finding and seeking new adventures was another story! A lot of this conversation was possessing information he could not relate to in the slightest. More so, while his leader was in the process of speaking, she rose a few points on her end as well, which Narky at first, had glanced towards Sinn once more to hear the answers. Glancing at Sinn once more, and the oni impression they carried however, had reverted his mind back into a panic. "Granny always said one must protect oneself before saying hello to more spiritual beings!!!" How quick on pushing it had Narky pursued, once Sinn had began allowing Pyrve and Svaf to challenge or chance an attempt at attacking him.
As soon as Svaf had been served a dish of table smashing, Narky had immediately went down on the floor on his hands and knees towards the safest part of the room, taking the earlier said salt shakers, opening the caps of them. Carefully but hurriedly, the poor frightened boy had formed a circle of the salt, with him inside it. It was only after he had formed the circle, had he shifted his body, tucking his coat in close to him, putting himself to sitting up straight, legs crossed in meditative positioning. Safe!!! He was safe from the violence!!! Sadly his fear over the imaginary was having his brain struggle to recollect that Sinn was there to train them. Even as the elder dragon had formed those words to them, there was no reaching through. His concern was more on Pyrve, who was next to be told to take him on. No!!!!! One person having been hurt was bad enough!!! Narky had tried to take the reigns on it as an option, hoping to distract Sinn away from challenging Pyrve. She shouldn't have any need to prove anything!!! "Ahm... S-sir.... I believe you when you say this is a dragon tournament, but none of us have wings or tails! As far as I know, no one breathes fire either! The only one with horns I see as well is you sir! I would love for it to be true if we were!!! Will this training be a magic spell that will turn us to dragons! What sort of competition will there be? We... Ain't about to fight to the death are we!? Please don't eat my soul for asking sir. I am protected if you try...." Whether this distraction would help or not.... Probably wouldn't. The thought was there though!
