'We're not the people you are looking for.' Sergey tried. Alexia and kraft looked so depressed, they might not even correct him. And the last thing we need is another 3 companions joining us. Lumino's departure was a gift from God. Now all I have to do is wait for kraft to make another mistake.

"Hello Marzius, glad to see you made it out," muttered Alexia, looking up at the slick mage. He had a troubadour, a knight, and a horse with him. "Ignore Sergey, he's always grumpy. I take it St. Elimine's not going to be following us anytime soon?" She looked over at the other arrivals. "Feel like introducing yourselves?"

"I'm Kraft." Kraft said.
"Who are you guys and what is your opinion about St. Elimine?"
Let's see how many heathens are joining us now. But wait, I know that face... Oh no. No.
Kraft retreated into the shadows so noone would recognise his face.

"This Great Knight is Knight Jacque of the Silver Stallion because well...he rides a silver stallion. The magnificent gallant steed before you is King Silver of the Sacae Plains. I did not name him his master did." She of course did this will a somewhat loud announcement-like voice trying to make the knight sound as important as possible. There were a lot of arm waving and grand flourishes usually associated with grand introduces, "And I...am merely a healer...Who honorably serves the Great Knight Jacque with the gratitude of him saving me from a horde of horrible bandits."
The horse conveniently snicker at this time, which earned him a swift kick to the shank. She smiled hoping no one took too much notice to the horse or the kicking of the horse. Smiling sweetly she bowed deeply long braid sweeping down to touch the forest floor.
"Please be so kind as to allow my humble knight and I to stay at your camp for the night. We are loyal servants of the glorious St. Elimine and shall try to be as less as a burden as possible. I am a fair cook, and-"
"And I can sing glorious ballads about the marvelous heroes of-"
"Jacque! You should not trouble these poor despairing people with your singing. It is not a knightly thing to do, besides they need cheering not sorrowful tales of old." Smiling to the others she turns quickly to the knight with an icy glare then turns back smiling once more.
"Heh, nice night?"

"We're hear to spread the word about the new versions of the heroes, which are not the champions we have heard about before," Alexia explained, looking to Marzius, Jacque, the troubadour, and Kraft. "Your lives will be put in danger if you travel with us. If that suits you, stay. Otherwise, leave." She turned to stare back into the fire. "I'm tired. I'm going to sleep. Anyone or anything that attacks me while I'm asleep will be dealt with harshly," she curled into a ball, still facing the fire, and closed her eyes.

She shifts her feet uncomfortably wondering why she was here. She should be at the inn getting sleep not stalking some disturbed people in the woods. Eyes darting around the camp she turns to Silver and grabs his reins.
"Jacque I don't think that this was such a good idea..." She whispers at the knight not looking at him. She tangles her fingers in the silvery soft mane and sighs. "In the morning we should just go back on the course we were on. I apologize for dragging you with me."
The horse nuzzles her softly and sniffles her ear making her smile.
"It's alright my small warrior, I shall follow you because of my debt to you. If you want to follow these people it's alright with me..." He whispered back causing her to look up at his gentle smiling face.
"Thank you Jacque..." Smiling she turns back to the strangers, "I guess we'll get some rest too, who's taking the first watch?"

'I am.' Sergey said instantly. Lumino was gone and Alexia went to sleep so it was left to him to keep an eye on these outsiders.

"suit yourself. i, for one, am looking forward to a respite from this rather harrowing day," marzius bowed to the cavalier, then the troubadour. "wait a moment, i don't believe i caught your name, m'lady..." marzius looked up at the troubadour, then slowly unfolded himself. "never mind. i myself am tired, and have no wish to keep someone else awake. in the morning, we leave for the capitol, yes? my master will be eager to hear your tale."

"Okay. Sergey, is it okay with you if I have the second watch? That way you can have some sleep too. Wake me if you agree." Kraft said, trying to stay unrecognised.
"For now, I'll have some sleepy time."
He yawned and stretched himself on the ground.
I must speak to the girl...

Kraft woke up from his faked sleep and said:
"Mgaaarraaaawww, aaalready? sigh. Okay, here we go."
He went to sit next to the fire and waited until Sergey slept. Then he took his knife and moved towards Maeleeown.
He gently pushed her and tried to awaken her.
"Hey, lady, I have something I want to ask you. It's quite important. Follow me please, be silent." he whispered.

She grumbled after finally falling asleep not so long ago. She thought it was her knight bothering her so she stood wrapping herself in a blanket. Silver snorted having been her pillow when she arose but she quickly quieted the stallion. By the time she caught up with the person who had awakened her she realized that it wasn't Jacque but the man who had bid help from her in the city.
"Oh...what is it that you want sir?" She whispered pseudo-kindly wondering what god forsaken thing the man wanted at this time of night. If he tried anything he'd...oh she was too tired to care. But he'd pay in the morning...

For two hours Sergey wtched how the fire dimmed down and died almost hypnotised. Yet he had kept his ears peeled for strrange sounds all the while. Finally he gave up and woke up kraft. 'Your turn.'

"What's your opinion about St. Elimine? Wait. Let me rephrase that: the people in this party think that the glorious St. Elimine is a zombie of some sorts..." Kraft whispered while leading Maeleeown away from the sleeping bunch.
"I think you see St. Elimine as a great lady and a example for us all, is that correct?" Kraft said.
This is risky. I can lose everything now.
"I'm not telling my opinion on this... yet."

"I believe that that man pushed the great St. Elimine to do something horrible, and that she is one of high respect and most importantly is not a zombie..."she shakes her head confused, "besides how could someone so good and righteous be a work of unholiness?" She smiled sweetly and grabbed her braid twisting it in her slightly shaking hands.
"What did you say you name was again? Taft or something? I'm sorry I'm horrible with names..." Smiling once again she looks over her shoulder at the sleeping group not liking getting led away into the darkness with the stranger.
