"Nice to meet you, Flint Locke." Rorsch nodded. "I'm a vegetarian though. Comes with being a druid."

Usrah felt the wind tug at his feet and he fell, but managed to catch himself through flying. He laughed and began to think if he knew Ashe's father.
"Adrock Windsong? Hmm... How old is he?"
The shadow hand sprouted more hands and began to tickle Ashe mercilessly.

Ashe thought about it. "He claims to be about 5000," she said finally. "And he's not one to exaggerate or lie." She then felt the shadow hand grow and climb up her. Then they started to tickle. Ashe squirmed in the air, trying to shake the hands off, laughing while at it. "Hey, cut that out! This isn't..." she could finish because the hands started to tickle harder. She was rolling over in the air, crying with laughter. "Who...knew...you...had...a...sense...of...humor..." she tried to say between gasps for air and laughter. "Your...just...doing...this...to...make...me...look...bad."

Usrah shrugged.
"No, I can't say I've met your father."
He could not help but laugh at her comment.
"Of course I have a sense of humor. It's just... I never really wanted to use it or show it."
The shadowy hands continued to tickle Ashe with no signs of stopping.

She paused where she was and fluttered her eyelids in confusion for a moment; How had Flint known she was right here? Tyr wondered to herself, but then she smiled and started laughing, a bubbly sounding thing that she tried to hold in but managed to shake her entire body. "Aren't you amazing?" She asked, feeling quite happy despite everything, so different than she normally did.
Putting her back into dragging the deer into the camp, Tyr didn't even notice the newcomer until she had reached the fire, so then she dropped the stags legs and smiled at him shyly. "Hello, I'm Tyr, but Flint already yelled my name, so I guess you know that, huh?" She asked, her bright smile from a second ago going a little soft and looking pretty ashy, but nothing could ruin her newfound good mood. "What's your name?" She asked as she went about trying to figure out how to get the big deer over the fire to cook.

Rorsch smiled at her. "Either way, it's nice to meet you personally, Tyr. My name is Rorschin Karndell, but you can call me Rorsch." He glanced at the deer and gave an extremely small shiver.

Lin looked at Tyr, unlike Flint, she hadn't even noticed Tyr arrive.
"Oh, you're back Tyr. That's a nice catch. Let me handle getting it over the fire."
Lin smiled, and stood up. She walked around the fire to where Tyr was, casting a short glance at the newcomer. Afterwards, she grabbed a pointed stick, which was more like a badly made spear, and stuck it through the deer, so it looked like it was on a stake. She used some ice magic to hold the pole with the deer over the fire, and then replaced them with wooden ones. She quickly made sure it stood in a stable way, and then she pushed it over the fire, wiped sweat from her forehead, and smiled.
"There we go. This fire still needs some more heat to cook this catch. This should help."
She summoned some flames of light, and sent them into the fire. They made the fire larger, and become brighter, before turning into the same coloured fire, as the original fire.
"Now we just turn the deer when we think it is cooked enough."
When the deer crisis was settled, Lin sat down, and cast a proper look at the newcomer. She examined him, he was definately of the mountain folk, and also had the stench of a barbarian.
"Hello, sorry I didn't say hello earlier. I am Liniathe Lavich of windshire manner. It's a pleasure to meet you. If you are hungry, there are some fruit over there."
She pointed to the fruit, and smiled.
"Even though we don't know you, we can tell you have no evil intentions, so just make yourself comfortable. You are welcome to stay here the night if you like, and if you haven't any other destination, you could join our group."
(I don't know if you skinned it or not, but if you hadn't, we'll just pretend you did. :3)

"A pleasure to meet you as well. I'm Roschin Karndell, but you can call me Rorsch." He stood with a grin to get the fruit, but he stopped to listen as she spoke.
"Uhh...wow." He rubbed the back of his head. "I'm...I'm not sure what to say. I suppose I can trust you, but how do you know you can trust me? I mean, I'd be glad to join you and all, but can you tell me where we'll be going?"

((Lets just say she skinned it while she was gutting it, but left it connected at the feet so it wouldn't get dirty, then cut it completely off when she got back. Yeah, that works.))
Still smiling pleasently to herself Tyr went and retrieved Ferghall from where he was laying, cradling him in her arms. You feeling any better? She asked him as his eyes opened slightly, revealing he had been feigning sleep for a little while now. Yeah, but I won't be chasing rabbits for awhile; still sore. He sighed, nuzzling his head against as her as she walked back over to the fire. She was almost happy that he wasn't feeling good, Ferghall was never this cuddly normally.
Sitting by the fire with him still tucked tightly into her arms, Tyr let herself drift off mentally, staring into the fire. She'd liked fire, it was one of her elements, sure, she had never bothered to learn any fire attacks, but that didn't stop her from appreciating it. Tyr ran her fingers over Ferghall's side softly, smiling more at the fact he felt better, because now he wasn't trying to bite her fingers off. Meditation looks good on you. He complimented, watching the fire warily; just because he was tame enough that he followed Tyr everywhere and let her pet him, didn't mean that he still didn't have the natural instincts to fear the fire.

"Well, Rorsch" Flint started, adding yet again another log to the fire, leaving it at that so he didn't choke it.
"Look at me. Honestly. I'm 3' 2" and carry a knife that does as much damage as a toothpick. You can trust us. Besides..." he said, using his mage hand ability to drag a large boulder behind him, then a few logs around the fire for his companions. He sat on the grass, leaning on the boulder, before continuing.
"I think you've been hiding from us long enough that if you wanted to kill us, you could have. Also, your a druid. I don't know many druids that would stain the floor of a forest with innocent blood." he said, using a twig to clean under his fingernails. He had a few slivers of bark under there from the last few battles and they hurt like hell.

Luniya turned around and licked her lips at the scent of meat. She walked over to the fire quietly, and sat. "Flint, you are small but sometimes that a good thing. You always know how to cheer us up too," she said with a gentle smile, while staring deeply into the fire. It was almost hypnotizing. The sky was getting dark and bright stars were appearing. She hoped the meat would be cooked soon, in the meantime, she content with grabbing another fruit.

Flint simply smiled, leaning his head back on the rock. "Thanks." he said simply.
Now that everyone was fairly close to the fire, he spoke up again.
"I really hate having to do this to you guys, but when we get near the capital, there's someone who lives in the foothills of the mountain, the side facing the capital, that I want to see. When we are about a day or two out I'll head out ahead of you guys and talk to this guy. I have a lot of things I need to get done there, but by the time you pass the hut, I should be done. " he explained, looking back at the fire.

Rorsch couldn't help smiling and nodding. "You are right, small guy. You seem to be well-versed in the ways of the forest."
He listened as he spoke again, not really having anything to say since he didn't know him well.

Ashe continued to roll about with the shadow hands on her, laughing and fighting for air. She then noticed that the hands didn't restrict her movements to much. She also saw that they where still above the small body of water near the camp. She leveled herself with the deepest part she could find and free fell towards the water, hitting the water and sending up a wall of water. She came up sputtering and dragged herself out of the water. She turned around and sent a strong wind at the water, sending it up at Usrah, soaking him as well. "Got ya!"

Usrah wiped his face off with his hand. He smirked and activated his Celerity. He began to spin around in the air, the water flying off of his body. He eventually ceased his spinning and revealed himself to be perfectly dry.
"You'll have to do better than simply water tricks."
