The First Age of Man

[Piston Honda]

"He has done much to aid us, and if he truly is in harm's way, I would be happy to have him along unless Niraya has any objection." Inguar looks over to Niraya.

"That is, of course, if Sheng wishes to travel with us." Inguar takes a final bite of his meal.

 

[Shayuri]

Niraya looked up when her name was mentioned, and quickly glances from Sheng to Inguar and back. Her cheeks pinkened slightly and she stammers, "Wha? I...it's... I don't object, if he wants to come with us. It's not up to me, but I don't mind."

He would be another supporter in the tribe after all. And he kept saying she was pretty, which...wasn't bad to hear.

Her cheeks reddened even more and she hastily busied herself with finishing off the scraps from the bone she had left from supper.

Seerah called Asra into the cave. It seemed likely that the Breathless were still out there, but she felt reasonably confident that there wouldn't be any more trouble.

"What? You really mean it?... Well I don't know what to say..." Sheng seemed truly surprised. Not a single one of the travelers gee had found offered him to join then. Generally an outcast has been banished for a reason, and not even knowing how was it, these people were offering him to join then. His mind rushed with many thoughts, the increasingly reddening Niraya. This might be his ticket out of the caveman life. "Thank you, I will gladly join you lot. It really means a lot that someone trusts in you." He places a grateful look in his face, looking at each of the travelers in turn.

"Keep your pants on Sheng, we've got a long way to yet!" Tekai says, smiling. "I think the Orcs might be keeping an eye on the best paths after their friends don't come home tonight. It's not like we can weave the cart through the trees like a rider could."

Sheng Shemin

"Ye should not worry too much, ye've got ol' Sheng with ya now. I've yet to find a rival that can best me in hand to hand combat; that either speaks good of my prowess in battle or bad about my social skills haha!" Sheng laughs, he grabs a leg bone of the deer and starts biting at the meat stick to it. "This's the best part..."

 

[Shayuri]

"Were the orcs hunters?" Niraya wants to know, more curious than worried now. "Scouts? What were they doing out here?"

 

[Piston Honda]

Inguar stands up, slicing off a little more of the meat on to a little of the bread. “I don’t claim to know much about Orcs, but this far out, I’d say scouts. That small of a group wouldn’t attack a settlement of humans, but they might bring a large group if they found one. Probably didn’t expect us to be a match for them.” As he returns to his seat, he wakes up Sialfi, who looks pretty weakened.

"Does it really matter? The only good orc is the dead one. And orcs are like ants, once you see a few, there's probably thousands nearby. We would do well in departing at morrow. Yer friends the breathless will keep their eyes peeled and their magic sparkling for us to have a safe journey out of the forests. We can all thank them for that." the warrior says, then looks over at the wounded man. "I'd not feed him just yet, he needs his body to heal inside. Ye carry some honey? I'd mix it with water and make him drink that, will keep his energy up."

 

[KirayaTiDrekan]

"I can apply more healing magic to him tomorrow, enough to get him on his feet, if not fully healed."
