When the dance concludes it rears up onto its hind legs and whinnies with glee. When it lands it bows its head towards both dancers, raising it only when Rain begins to talk. The unicorn meets her eyes with no sign of fear in them when she reveals her infernal origins. He seems about to reply when all of a sudden a striking dark haired nymph in a red dress enters the glade."Halt intruders!" she shouts holding a gnarled staff aloft. "What do you think you are doing?" The unicorns shy away at the sound of her voice.[sblock= Insight (DC 9)]The nymph's aggressiveness confuses and agitates the unicorns. [/sblock][sblock= Perception (DC 19); Passive or otherwise make an active check] Creeping through the tall grass and brush are three tiny winged humanoids armed with bows. When the nymph shouts they take aim.
