Mialee was in a world of her own and didn't notice the new comers. It wasn't till she noticed Foster had gone /that she snapped back to reality.
~Oh..why is Foster interesed in those scrolls? Can he read them?~
Mialee was looking at Foster and caught Mourne glance at her.
~Whoa. What did i do this time?!~
Thought Mialee. It wasn't till she thought about it for a moment that she noticed there was something about the look he'd given her.
Then she saw Alexis talking to reasonably good looking human. ~what is it? Is he jealous of Alexis or was it just Foster annoying him!~
~This is starting to annoy me. Why is he so mysterious. I can't stand not knowing!!~ and with that she gripped the reigns of the horse and rode over to Mourne.
She sat there for a moment wondering if he would react.

As she came up beside him, Mourne gave Mialee an almost warm nod. Foster tried to slip his mask off but was quickly stopped with a look from Mourne, "No little one, a Ninja's true identity is his most valuable secret for if someone knows who he is he is bound to serve him... or her." he threw Mialee a sidelong glance, "You Ryu is curious... a valuable but dangerous trait." He stroked Foster's horns, "I need to have someone to be my... friend otherwise I may be killed during my coming ordeal... I would be honored if you would be my companion..." Foster nipped his ear. "You too little Ryu."

~Raven sat, motionless on his horse, impatiantly waiting for the others. He noted the newcomers and smiled sardoicly. "more fodder for the cannon", he thought. He was not close enouph to see the scrolls that mourne read but he watched. Was he a mage? or did these scrolls have something to do with their quest? He decided, simply to wait and to watch. His time would come.~

Mialee was taken back when Mourne was nice to Foster even when he tried to remove his mask.
~what's going on! I was sure he would have raged at Foster for that. but no, he's nice and even stroked him~
Mialee was suprised at that and then when he spoke about companions. She was in a state of shock.
~hey he can't be horrible one minute and nice the next! But at least i know why he wears that damn mask~
Foster was now sat infront of Mourne happy to have been stroked, looking at the scrolls. He looked a little puzzled. ~Hmm... i don't think he can understand it. Shame, although i don't really care.~Thought Mialee.
"Well it seems that Foster has warmed to you. I'm willing to do anything aslong as he isn't harmed. He is still young he has much too learn."
Foster cocked his head to one side. He new he was being talked about. But he wasn't interested and nipped Mourne on the hand playfully.
"By the way do you speak Draconic? It's just that Foster's common isn't very good. He can understand some but can't speak any. I have tried but it frustrates him."

He looked at Mialee with empty eyes, "No... I understand it, but the old mage never taught me how to speak it properly." he smiled behind his mask as he entertained Foster by making a marble disappaer and reappaer in his hands. He almost laughed as Foster nosed in his sleeve in search of the marble. "I repsect Alexia, yet... she's not my type of companion. After watching you all for a bit, you seem the best." his eyes traveled up her body, "and your easy on the eyes as well." he turned back to Foster and smiled as activated the Ioun stone, it may be a burned out one but it was fun to play with. "Ryu, you can keep this to play with." he said as he let the Ioun float about Foster's head.

Foster was fasinated by the floating Iuon and sat staring at it.
~Finally i get to see what the real Mourne is about.~
she looked at him smiled. ~He doesn't look to bad either. Maybe...~
She turned to Mourne. "Well i could do with a companion. Foster's great and all but he's a young dragon its not the same talking to him."
she looked at Foster and then up to Mourne.
"Well what are we going to do then?"

Mourne looked at her, "Get Married..." seeing the shock on her face he smiled, "Sorry, i'm not good at jokes..." he watched Foster play "Catch the Stone" for a bit, every once in a while he would throw a glance in Mialee's direction, his eyes drawn to her bodice.
~Why am i being such a pervert... she has a nice body though... She's not like that... Her eyes... I'm a Human and She is and Elf... Doesn't matter... She doesn't have feelings for me... But you for her?~
He shook his head and smiled at her as Foster cocked his head in puzzlement.

Meanwhile, Julian dismounts and bows to Alexia. His smile disappeared as soon as he realized that he is dealing with his employer and charge, not with strangers.
"Pleasure of meeting you, General Alexia" says Julian formally "Please, forgive me for not recognizing you outright, General Alexia. My name is Julian Heartguard, but I would appreciate if you would call me just Julian."

"Hmmm... somehow she doesn't seem the kind of general, who would cover behind her subordinate's or her bodyguard's broad shoulders, should the situation get hot" thought Julian, as he studied General Alexia, while waiting for any reply or orders from her "But then again, appearance is deceptive thing... no matter! I was hired to do my job, and I must be thankful that she turned out to be in need of service of somebody like me."

~Whoa! hmmm... well at least i now know he has emotions i was starting to think he had a heart of ice. Still nothing wrong with that it'll just make it a little easier to thaw it~ She smiled to her self, but then she remembered her home *Sigh* ~What is wrong with elven men do they have no passion, spirit don't they need to be loved?~
She gazed tearfully at Mourne.
~Snap out of it Mialee~ she scolded herself ~There is a quest to be done. There will be time afterwards.~
She composed herself and rode upto where Alexis and the others were.

Mourne smiled slightly as she rode away, he turned to Foster who had taken up a perch on his shoulders, "Well little Ryu it seems we'll have some fun after all..." he scratched Foster under his chin as they rode behind Mialee and joined the group, his usual emotionless expression back on his face.

As Mourne rejoined their group along with Mialee and Foster, Julian gave Mourne a quick glance, and then turned his eyes back to Alexia.
Julian knew this kind of people, and fought them more then he would like to in the past two years of his life.
"Dangerous man" made Julian a mental note for himself "Perheps more dangerous then any of his kind, whom I met and fought before now. If he is with us, I believe, that I am beginning to understand why exactly I was given this job. I should watch General Alexia's bakc carefully from now on, one such as her usually has a lot of enemies, who are ready to pay for her death."

Curwyn watched as some other people joined the group. The woman was talking to Alexia, and near her a dog was jumping around, then sat down at her command. The gnome rode toward them.
~This playful dog remember me someone...~
As he was thinking about his past, the rest of the group was gathering. With a glance at the dog, he joined the others, near Alexia.
"Are we r'dy?"

Julian, who took his current job seriously as soon as he realized that his charge was right in front of him, once again allowed his eyes to turn from Alexia to give Curwyn a quick glance.
"A gnome" made Julian a mental note for himself "Though hardly the most fierce fighter around, they are believed to be much tougher then humans, which is mostly true. He also should be more trustworthy then some of my fellow humans..." Julian cast another suspicious look at Mourne "...At last as long as he don't carry his various hellish devices and alchemical substances around. I heard, that these gnomes are more dangrous then a raging dragon, when it comes to alchemy or inventions..."

"...Speaking of dragons..." thought Julian, now turning his gaze Mialee and Foster. However this time Julian's gaze is curious, rather then studious or suspicious.
"...What an interesting couple!" continued his now wandering thinking Julian "The maid is real beauty, with her jet black hair and emerald eyes! And silver streak in her hair adds... originality to her looks. And little dragon is cute, never though that word 'cute' can be applied to the creature such as dragon before! Though I doubt that either of them have much experience in... in whatever we are going to do! Is is a good thing that there are people among us, who will be able to protect them should the need arise, myself included, if General Alexia will not be in any danger, of course."
