Kida took a deep breath of sacaen air. "ahh. It's good to be home." She said. She couldnt wiat to get back to her tribe. She always knew where they were, it was like second nature to her. She held her fire tome to her chest and sag an old song her tribe sung while migrating with the animals. When she was done, she was almost to a small town where she could stay for the night. And then she saw it.

"Ahh!" She screamed as she saw the smoking rubble of the village. She ran towards it to see if there were any survivors. But it was not survivors she found...

"What do we have here? A pretty little girl just begging to be sold to a noble? Well then, if thats what you want" The bandit said. He was reffering to Kida. He was obviosly mad with greed. "Stay back." Kida said. "I must warn you that I am wielder of advanced magic." She camly stated. Two more appeared. "Oh snap." She said. Then, he attacked.

she just bearly dodged the axe as she held her palm open above her head, gathering a ball of energy, to attack back at him. "Fire!" she shreiked. the bandit screeched as the fireball struck him, enveloping him in searing flames.

She made short work of the other one, but the last one resisted her magic. He had her pinned on the ground and was about to lower his axe on her throat. she was ready to die.

Verikk was walking through the forest, his felt happy to have been there again. A distance clashing of metal sounded in the distance. He qucikened his steps to see what it could be. As he came closer the noise stopped, and was replaced by heavy, panicked, breathing. He saw the bandit, about to kill a beautiful girl. Memories flashed in his mind, anger welled up in his heart. He put his finger tips together, lifted them above his head. As he took a deep breath, a dark ball took form above his head, it was swallowed by the Earth. Before anyone knew, it was flying at the bandit, hit him in the head, and killed him.

The bandit fell, hit by what looked like a flux spell. She turned around to see a man with sholder length black hair and torn robes standing near her. "Thank you." she said. "may i be graced with your name?"

He knew she was trying to communicate, but he didn't know how to speak any languages, he took out his instrument, and played the song a mother robin sings to her newly hatched young. In hopes she could understand.

"hmm" Kida mumbled. "thats a lovely song. Where did you learn it? It makes me want to sing. But please, i need to know your name and why you saved me, or at least your story. Im from a small nomad tribe here in sacae. My parets they, they were killed by bandits when i was young. I was raised by the chieftian, he and my father were good friends, and he had no children of his own. I was raised as a princess of our tribe, but i never forgot..." She said, tears forming in her eyes.

Verikk saw the saddness, the long amounts of speaking, and the questioning nature of her movements. He played a song of his story, in the way birds speak to each other. Bandits showed no kindness to my forest, now I wish to take revenge, he played. Tears always welled up in his eyes, and they came to be both crying.

"!" Kida understood the birdspeak. She and her foster father had often communicated like that. She repeated her stroy in robin tweets and whistles. she used her voice, for she was the jewel of the tribe when it came to singing. She guessed that from his story, he couldnt talk in human laguage.

Verikk heard her delicate singing, and understanding took its place in his mind. They started talking to each other, or rather a strange duet of singing and playing that formed a bond of knowing between them.

she liked the bold sound of his instrument, and loved singing to it. as time drew on, they learned more and more of eachother's lagauges. They developed a strong friendship, and also grew well known as traveling musicians, with Verikk's instrument and Kidas voice, they became the entertainers of many.

They had a job to do, Verikk and Kida went back onto the hunt of bandits. One day when they were walking through the forest they came upon a bandit camp. Verikk signaled for Kida to be quiet. Not many seemed to be occupying it, there was one keeping lookout and two attending daily chores.

Kida obeyed Verikk, he was like her commander now, if they could get more people, they could form a band of mercenaries. She crept in the shadows of the trees, wiating for Verikk to tell her to strike.
