Welcome to Gaia! ::

Liira || At her stall

Liira stared daggers at the wort that was an ice earthling as he stalked off. Good riddance. a**. She noticed that the timid grubby handed Alkidike and the other earthling had started their own conversation and, following suit, she turned her attention to the Alkidike woman in front of her. She didn't think she would outright call herself a huntress, but she guessed that was the closest to what you would call it. She shrugged. "I know my way around a bow."

The Alkidike seemed to be distant and continually scanned the crowd during their short conversation. Yeah sure, pass the time here instead of leaving Liira alone in peace. It was obvious she wasn't completely interested in this stall and was just looking for this Rishima fella. Whatever, it just meant that she could get on in her business in peace. Not that it mattered much anyways. The horns had just blared through the grounds and it would be time to get on with the battling soon. She only hoped that she could face that snot-nosed, bad attitude ice earthling. Wishful thinking, you know? "I haven't seen him, but he can't be that hard to miss if he's as tall as you Alkidike women." She uncrossed her arms and gestured to Jerarda's height.

Niadra

Niadra laughed. If there was one thing she knew, she knew that people loved to dance. Some people more then others, but for the most part everyone loved to dance. "I'm sure that people will join us, and yes some tips would be good! I have a little bit of money but not nearly enough to buy anything nice." she said shrugging. "Yes, as soon as I'm done. I'm sure that since I'm so use to working out and running around I should have enough energy to dance after!" she said with a laugh. She had never been in a battle, so she didn't know how much energy it would take, but hopefully not so much she wouldn't be able to dance.

4th post for all of them

She thought on what he'd said. To humid? Well that was true. Though he looked odd to her eyes now. She was used to markings and designs upon the skin, the Earthlings with their simple coloration's did look odd.
"The pale bland colors of your skin need paint to look better, makes you more like an Alkidike," She grinned at him as she pulled Zweil off his head and let the kinfa finish her plate. She'd finished before Tau cause she knew how to eat fast but still enjoy it. She'd slow down for the good stuff, this was mediocre.
"Not bad, interesting flavor, but not something I want to learn to make. I'll pay for the next stall since I have some extra coins from raiding a bandit's camp."
With that she nodded at the stall owner and cheerfully went to the backer's stall next to it. A scent of pastries with fruit and honey insides met her nose. These would be good, she could tell.


The horn blew and she looked up, "Does that mean you have to go now?" She got a jittery feeling in her stomach, eager to see her friend fight, but worried she might get hurt. "I'll walk with you there then wait in the stands for you to finish!"


Rayolun considered Lassara's words, that was true. Guess I shouldn't hold back too much then, he thought. He chuckled at what Izsha was doing, "Helping out? You must really have trained her good!" When Kelina left, he gave her a small wave and a "Good luck." What else could he say? She was cute (though not as cute as Lassra) and he didn't know her too well....

And what did Lassara mean by ' just got you?' Weren't they sisters? Curious. But it wasn't his place to pry too much. And now he was alone with Lassara.. well, as alone as you can get in a crowd. Looking at her he gave a lopsided smile, "I'll probably drop by your place and deliver another animal in the next few weeks if you want. I'm headed to go try hunting along the coast soon so it'd have to be now or in a few months..." He had only ever seen the sea from a distance and through the trees, so he wanted to go see more of it. He was rather tired of hunting in the jungles in fact, wanted a bit more.. excitement? Adventure? Something like that. Something new.

Kelina stretched her arms after her battle. It had gone fairly quick in a somewhat sad way. Although she had not won, she learned a lot, and sometimes that was more important. She was somewhat bruised up, especially her knee, and after seeing the healers it was nothing more than a dull throb. She saw her sister still talking to Rayolun and decided to give the two more time to talk by themselves since she knew how her sister felt. Food was what she decided she needed. The battle had worked up quite the appetite so she made her way towards the food. Stopping in one of the more...normal looking ones, Kel ordered some kind of noodle things in broth. With a shrug, she took a sip. It was actually really good despite the questionable blue things floating around in it. Finishing off that bowl, she got another and proceeded to scarf that one down as well.

Aysun post 1

Aysun lifted his menk up over his head to stare at it, turning the globe it lived in slowly, watching the way that it swam in a manner that allowed it to always be upright before he gave a bit of a smile. They were a really strange animal, that was for sure, something that could live forever in a globe without having to be fed. It was pretty weird... but still, it was one that he felt their mother would like a lot better then Kapila who was currently staying with his family members back in Jauhar. Maybe it was cause Kapila was a bug? He sure knew that Uncle Tak wasn't a fan...

Lowering his Menk down he looked through it's container, toward where Takoda was at the moment, then glanced over at his twin, "Huh... I hope he is alright... I bet Uncle Jacin will want to kiss him and make it better." He said, sticking his tongue out at the idea as though kissing was 'icky' before he pushed up to his feet, leaning over the railing, waving both hands despite one of them holding his Menk, and yelled, "You did good! I still love you Uncle Tak!" Hoping that he would hear and that it would make up for the fact that he'd been beat by a girl. Sitting down he looked over at Chandra again, "I bet it sucks getting beat by a girl." That was what he was taking out of the battles thus far, that there were a lot of scary girls in the world just like their mom, that liked to beat up boys.

Aysun gave a little smile and said, "I bet if we were fighting we'd win." Course he didn't have a weapon and couldn't cast any spells but still, he had confidence in the two of them and their potential given that both their parents had won. That must mean that they were twice as awesome then!

Yaholo: Post one

Yaholo finally made his way to the stands after his battle was through, having been at the healing tent for some time. Despite winning his first battle, he certainly didn't leave unscathed, and wanted make sure he was in tip-top-shape for his next battle. He approached the crowded vending stations with as much curiosity as excitement, and decided to purchase a few items from the fairgrounds vendor. A few strange vials of liquid, an odd gray scale, some small trinkets, and a tiny fish in a jar whom he affectionately named "Ponja", were just a few of the items he purchased.

He wandered among the crowds and bought himself something to snack on. The vendor had called it "Bakob" or something similar, and it was comprised of meat, vegetables, and a wonderful sauce that Yaholo wanted to ask the recipe for. He chowed down on his treat before deciding to sit and watch the remaining fights, taking a seat close to where Aysun, Chandra and Jerarda were sitting. This was all so amazing, and yet so daunting! He couldn't wait to see who he would be fighting next!

[Biroki: Relaxing]
Biroki left the Arena not feeling particularly victorious, but he didn't feel bad either. He tried to find Rastian in the crowd. He seemed familiar and Biroki was feeling pretty good and ready to chat with someone.

[Kaalnia: Shaken]
Kaalnia still wanted to cry, but she at least had pulled herself together enough to put on a good face and head out into the crowd. She found herself flinching at every ice tribe person she met, which she knew was a silly thing to do. One of the healers had been a nice ice tribe man, so she knew she shouldn't. But she did. She needed something to drink, something sweet and tasty. Not eat- her stomach wasn't ready to refill itself just yet. She stopped by a troupe of dancers and was caught by their routine. She watched them, still shivering, barely even noticing that they were wearing skimpy little outfits, men and women both. You know what would feel really good right now? Like right now? she thought to herself, watching them and hugging herself to try to keep the shivers at bay, dancing. her stomach twinged in disagreement.

[Ruelash: Eager to Fight again, returning to Arena]
He was coming down off of the adrenaline high, and coming down well. A quick and mandatory trip to the healers, who he sassed and growled at, and he was back to his usual a*****e self, instead of a crazy cornered animal. Didn't matter- he still felt good. This really was his sort of event. Lots of fighting and carnage to go around! He grabbed some food and went back to the arena waiting room to avoid the crowds and practice and warm up in peace.

[Peyla: at the Bookie]
Nooo No no no what was he doing? He was giving away the shinies! But... but they were shiny, what was he doing! If he didn't want them, he should give it all to her.
She flew down to tell him so, but he swatted at her again.
Hmmph! Crazy Earthling! Clearly she had to save him from himself and take his shinies so he couldn't give them away. But she needed a plan...

[Dyakida: at her stall]
Dyakida kept an ear to the conversation while trying to find her staffs. They weren't exactly like the earthling's staves- she had only ever felt one. These were more like quarterstaffs with special grain and carvings. She wasn't sure if it would work right without the big heavy crystal. Maybe these were good only for walking. But who else to consult but someone who used them?

"Use it well, Ilyra" she said, pleased with Ilyra's reaction. It might be simple in design, but she had made sure it was just right and exactly what she wanted. Not a single compromise there.

Aha, there they were.
She moved them out from their little resting place and leaned them against the back of the counter so that Aminah could see them. "I merely need to know if I managed to get the wood to focus right. I'm still trying to figure out the trick to calibrating a crystal to magical energies..." she stopped, a little chagrined that she was getting so... technical.

She inclined her head towards the little four year old. "And I would appreciate it greatly. Thank you."
