Uay't pi zylblezit dwi lizaylkiz dwi irvim lauor foneru woz... Sintariun cursed under her breath at saying that and looked to Liah, Tam'd dirr omuami, briozi, E tam'd homd da noci o pej tior ayd af nu peldwlejwd. The elf wrapped her arms around herself as if to shield off an invisible foe. She didn't mind being the next to the throne it was the responsibility and the fact that the entire village was in charge of her safety, if a royal guard found her, she was as good as sent back home.
(You'd be surprised the resources the elven royal family has...) (Don't tell anyone, please, I don't want to make a big deal out of my birthright.)

Gia barely heard Ramiel's words amidst her training, but she would fly over to where group were. She grew more used to the group, as she would land upon the ground. Gia did not banish her wings back into her body this time. "How much farther to the place we are heading?" Her question was directed for Ramiel to hear. It was out of concern and out of clear wish to be willing to help no matter the dangers ahead. Her eyes were about the area as she smiled at the others. She would dig into her bag and would pull out something that might be welcomed to the group. "If you all would like these, you may have one." It would appear that Gia would offer the rag tag group of adventurers a type of sweet roll that had been dried and made perfect for travel so that it remained fresh. Gia had took one of the small rolls for herself while holding the small wrapped fabric open in-case someone came up to take one of the small rolls for themselves. It was her treat to them.

Liah's eyes widened in surprise at the news and she shook her head quickly. "No, don't worry. I won't tell anyone. Your secret is safe with me." Smiling at Sinatariun, she wondered what kind of bravery it took for a royal to do anything they could to help their people. It was very admirable for her to risk her life for the one's she would one day rule over. "How, if you don't mind me asking, does an Elven government work? I'm curious...I couldn't see a dictator in your world..."

(You're born into it, my family was the first to start the village and so were somewhat elected to be the rulers and it's been passed down the generations, I'm just next in line.)

"Its not much farther, 25-30 minutes at the most. I can smell the rotting flesh from here..." He said with a slight sneeze.
Shaking his head he brought his head to his temple for a moment then growled in annoyance at the slowness of the rest of the group. Most would say he was being impatient, however the truth lied deep in his past. At the least he didn't want to be even near the place they were headed to any longer then needed.

Zen sniffed the air as well to see if he could smell the rotting flesh that Ramiel was talking about. "He's right." he said covering his nose with his hand. "Well, it looks like this day's off to a good start. Slept well, ate well, getting some excercise, going to take a walk through the forest, and escape some living dead. Perfect day." he said sarcastically.

'We should go.' Asteria pointed out, she could sense the annoyance of Ramiel. Annoying such a character as he was not a good idea.
Liah glanced over at the irritated figure once more and sighed. "You're right." She said aloud and turned to Sintariun. "I wonder how long the journey through the dead forest will take." She wondered after picking up her pack from the ground not too far off and putting the canteen back inside. Just then, Damon returned. "Right on time." She commented. He nodded in response and followed her as she started to walk toward the others.

Nodding once more, Sintariun followed the others as they rejoined the annoyed male. Looking to the wolf again, the elf patted him with almost a sad touch. Inside she didn't want to think about her family yet it was the reason why she was here. Glancing once more at the lake it felt like she was saying goodbye to everything she knew. Now there was nowhere else to but forward. Saying a quick elven prayer of a successful journey, Sintariun glanced forward with a determined gaze.

Seirei was getting tired from all the running but he wasn't about to stop. He'd learned the direction that the group was headed and had been chasing after them for some time now. He was using up his energy to catch up with them, he was rather far behind from what he could tell so he needed the boost. He was looking ahead and surprised to see a forest coming up on him. He hadn't seen a group yet but he was almost to the dead forest.
"Damn, I must've missed them... or they've gotten quite far already," he muttered to himself, charging onward into the trees. He plowed through the forest, avoiding trees as best he could when he smashed straight into a tree, exploding into mist and drifting apart. "Well s**t... I guess I really did miss them. Might as well head back," he grumbled, the floating mist drifting back towards where he'd come from. The forest itself was rather gloomy so he blended in perfectly fine and he didn't know it but he was soon to come across the group he'd been looking for.

Gia sighed a bit as she folded the fabric back over the sweet rolls she offered to the group she was traveling with. Gia thought of casting a ward against undead, but knew it as dangerous to do cause it taxed her magic to cast. She never used the wards due to this, pending on how long she needed to keep them casted. She'd clutch the hood close over her head as she looked up at the sky, before deciding to speak up. "Would a spell cast as a ward to keep living dead at a distance be of use for the remainder of the journey out of the forest?" Gia had to ask this, but her voice would show her reluctance to use the spell, but she would not hint why until she heard from the others that journeyed if they would want the spell active and casted.

"I doubt it would be strong enough" Ramiel said bluntly "Every inch of the forest is undead, even the grounds technically undead. Its a forest entirely made of death...or I supposed un-death" He said gruffly, his attention for the moment focused on Gia.
Shaking his head, he turned and began to walk off into the woods "I'm not waiting any longer, if any of you fall behind before we hit the right section of the forest just turn back, assuming you value your life..." Ramiel said, not even bothering to look back while he said it.

Gia would back at the side of her body, but he was right. Alone she would not have enough strength to hold the spell in place, last time she casted the ward it took many people to help keep it going. "The smell alone says you're right. I wouldn't be able to keep the spell up in strength alone to handle this place." She would follow behind closing the cape over her wings, not even bothering to summon the wings back into her body. Gia had to figure she might need her wings some point in the day. The longsword seemed to every so often shimmer, but she would take a cloth to wrap the hilt of it to stop it. Gia didn't explain why her sword did this at all either, but she knew why. If anything poses even a remote danger to her or those she traveled with, her sword had a tendency to glow brightly at the hilt of the sword. She felt it better the light be covered up until she knew what the threat Ramiel wanted to get ahead of showed itself.

When Gia asked about using a spell to ward off the undead, Sari thought about offering to help, but decided against it since it would probably take more than the two of them to keep it going. Grabbing her rucksack, she followed after Ramiel. “Is there a more efficient way ofgetting rid of the undead besides chopping them into pieces?” She asked no one in particular. She didn’t know much about the undead because the subject didn’t really interest her, so she hadn’t bothered to learn anything about them.

Alwyn shrugged as she stood and began to follow. It was as she thought going to be an interesting journey. She made sure that her sword was strapped securly to her side. and cheaked the small dagger she had sheathed to her ankle. "So then You are saying that this forest is completely undead?" Knowing as she said it that she had been feeling it for some time. "Will there be any other types of creatures that will be encountered in this place and if so will they too be undead?" she asked Ramiel as she hurried along behind him.

"You ask to many questions" Ramiel grumbled as he walked "Did I not say that everything in there was undead? That means the plants, the animals, the birds, and the elves that once lived there! Every thing that once drew breath is currently a walking corpse. As for killing them, hey, if you find a better way to kill them then smashing em to bits, tell me...as for other creatures....lets just pray we don't run into those things..." Ramiel said, grumbling slightly here and there.
Turning to look back at everyone he spoke one last thing, his words deeply serious "Remember to watch your backs..."
