Jya laid down on her belly, to tired to really do anything. She hated being so useless and weak, like how the people in the village believed in. She tried to get up and help out around the camp, but she ended up tripping and smashing her head on the ground. Which made the top of her forehead start to bleed. Days like these were just the worst time to be alive. She hadn't felt like suiciding for months until now. She was useless, weak, tattered, broke, and injured.
"Maybe I should just disappear," she muttered. However she picked herself up and started to try to help out in anyway, she could. No matter what, she will pay these people back for their kindness.

Julian noticed that the others were preoccupied with getting them food, so he began to set up the tents they had. He was really looking forward to hearing the story of the war.
As he was working, he heard a muttered, "Maybe I should just disappear," from Jya's direction. Not really knowing why she said that or what he should do, he simply asked, "Um, would you like to help me set up these tents?" to try and get her mind off of whatever she was thinking.

Jya looked up to see a man, asking her to help. She tried to ripe away the blood flowing down her face, but that was useless. She doesn't exactly know how to set up a tent, but her wanting to help overwhelmed the fact she knew little.
"Yes, I really would like to, if you would accept me," she replied her eyes filled with excitement.

Rayl was barely able to see anything as the darkness seemed to cover the earth like a thick blanket tonight...luckily for the cavalier, his horse seemed to traverse as if nothing was going on, and again he wondered how Bern could possibly train animals to be so obedient...
...but these thoughts went away when he saw a deer in a moonlight clearing, staring right at him. This reminded him of when he met Persephone and later Alcibie, but this time he checked to make sure there were no bandits around, before charging his horse in it's direction, and this little chase went on for awhile, both speeding through a dark forest, and it was only by chance that Rayl's lance connected with the animal, which bellowed before falling to the ground. Lifting it up and onto the back of his horse, he nodded his head, looking at the massive beast...this should surffice for substinance for some of the group, now lets hope that man caught something as well... after this, he began heading on back to the campgrounds.

Persephone had sat on her own for a bit, remaining quiet and rather to herself for most of the time. Before she moved to her own comfort, she had searched for an area near by in which her steed Ayriss could easily graze upon the grass, and a few leaves if she so desired. As long as her steed found comfort first and foremost, what was a pegasus knight without her pegasi after all? "You know not to stray..." She lectured her steed before turning towards the campfire once more.
All of this was very confusing and a lot to take in all at once, but she knew there was slightly peaceful atmosphere settling over the group. The girl had somehow managed to get down from her pegasi, not that she blamed her, it took one awhile to get used to flying. However she wasn't sure of her own worth in all of this. Of course, she did owe Rayl a good knock upside the head for putting himself in danger for trying to play hero again.
Alicibie needed to recover, she probably had over exherted herself trying to heal people in the fire. Thats what Clerics seemed to do a lot of.

Arriving back at the campgrounds, he gave a nodd to each and every one of the members of their little group of warriors, as he took the game from the back of his horse, and lightly dropped it to the ground, cleaning the tip of his lance, before taking out his hunting knife, and slowly began sawing off the beast's great antlers, though he was watching Persephone the enter time, and so, once he finished carving off the antlers, he gathered them up, before slowly walking to the pegasus knight's side, sitting down beside her,"...It's good to have you back Lady Persephone, but you never told us where you had gone..."
His smiled seemed to fade, as he looked back to his new Bernese horse. You think i'd ride off and back to Bern, as it was obedient, and yet it did not move from where he dismounted, and seemed to be attention, like a soldier waiting for orders from their commanding officer...like Rayl himself, and his prefering to take orders from the young woman he was now talking to.

Aerious, like-wise, arrived back in camp dragging a dear. It looked quite odd for a man of such slight build carrying such a monster animal. He threw it down near the fire and looked to the camp set up. They had taken care of it quite well it would seem.
"Hmm, good good. Now we just need to cook these things and we will have a nice meal for tonight." He spoke, to nobody in particular.

The blood on Jya's forehead had already stopped bleeding, while she tried her best to set up camp. She wasn't sure about how to do half the things that should be done. Its not like she ever slept really comfortable in nature. Her hand rummaged uncomfortably through her cloak looking for something. Apparently she had lost her other medicines in case of emergencies, there were still one bottle of liquor for some reason. With a sigh she ran all over the area looking for her vials and ended up hitting someone hard.

As Rayl made mention of where she had been before the inccident in Bern, Persephone let out a heavy sigh. Running her hand through her hair she smiled weakly before glancing over at him, "I had been given word at that tavern during the night my mother had taken gravely ill. I had gone off to see her... I had come to late to her though, but she rests in peace now.." Quickly dismissing the issue she began to remove her shoulder pads, tossing them to the ground before taking a good sit. Honestly they didn't thin she worn the chest plate all the time, they were impossible to sleep in.
In her uniform dress only now she glanced towards Aerious as he began talking outloud somewhat. "I can help cook if you like," She offered Aerious and Rayl before suddenly finding herself knocked backwards by a sudden force, landing right on her rear in suprise. Looking she noticed little Jya having been the source of the collison, though she was a little more concerend with the girl then herself. After all, Persephone could handle herself, though there had been some power behind that run.
"Are you alright?" Persephone inquired, "What on earth were you running from?"
Was there a monster in the woods? Or had she merely been frightened by the dark.

Jya fumbled on thr ground just in case she missed some sort of bottle of medicine. Apparently little was there, she struggled to her feet and cleared her pants before progressing into an answer. As she looked around, there were quite a bit of unfamiliar faces and it disturbed her a little.
"Well, I just can't find some of my medicine vials," she said not making eye contact as she spoke. Her hands fumbled with the small bit of liquor, but it was pretty much useless. Maybe it was switched out for something important. She walked around back and forth in a lot of worry.

Rayl paused, staring at Persephone, before placing a hand on her shoulder, smiling politely"I...I'm sorry for your loss..." he looked down and then to the fire, thinking about his own parents. Had he ever visited them when he was in Laus, training to become what he was now? He doubted it, prefered the bakers he lived with anyways, as he removed his own armor, taking the bucket, the bag of unknown contents and his spear, heading off to find the river to get water for the surprise he was planning for the group...he was going to make them a nice stew with the ingredients in his bag, but he just hoped they wern't spoiled, otherwise...well, then he wouldn't be able to make anything, as he knelt down at the side of a small spring, dipping the bucket in, scooping up water, and began to make the trek back to the camp.

Falling unconscious seemed to be a thing of her as of late. Alcibie blinked a few times looking at the fire. Her hand crunched the grass beneath it. Pushing herself off the ground seemed to be trouble enough. She let out a yawn. You could hear her limps popping as she stretched.
Alcibie felt half dead, but she let it pass. Instead she decided to stare at the fire until the world stopped tilting back and forth. She figured everything would be explained eventually. She hoped as much anyways. Though being left in the dark might be a good thing. She leaned forward and her back popped again. She was too young for this.

Alan flew over woods and plains in the darkness. He couln'd find the ligs that indicated a town in the area and he wasn't going to land until he knew what his exact location was and what the price was on his own head these days.

As Julian had finished setting up the tents, the young girl, 'Jya,' he corrected himself, had run off, only to bump into the Lady Persephone. Seeing as he was finished, Julian merely laid back on the ground staring up at the sky while thinking, waiting for the food to be cooked and the man to tell his story of the war.
He had been wondering about that man. He indirectly said he had been part of the war, due to his claim to having a first hand account. Also, during the red-headed girl's - 'Myra,' he corrected himself again - transformation, he had called out to her, and afterwords, she had gone and spoken to him with some familiarity. 'Could he be...no, that's just speculation. But...I'll just wait and see what he says,' he thought, deciding on holding off on his assumptions.

"Let me put this food over the fire and I'll start the story if you'd like." Aerious said, sensing the tension in the air. He carved off a portion of the meat with his claws and placed it on a spit over the fire.
"It will take a little time, so have a seat." He said to nobody in particular.
