"Thank you for the meal - you are a very good cook" - Grein said sincerely - good food was something he had grown to appreciate since living on his own. A good meal was difficult to come by
The girl decided on the couch and seemed to pass out right away. Grein moved the chair across from the door and leaned his staff next to it before settling down to rest. He was far enough away to act and still hoped he would wake up if someone opened the door.
He had no fear of the woodsman - but the strange myrmidon had just shown up out of nowhere. She could easily be a criminal and running from the law. He knew he didnt trust her and nervously glanced at the door before going to sleep.

The young white haired wyvern rider had flown all they way to Sacae after a short stop in Bern that only lasted a few days. New clothes, new armor for him and Vyer, his wyvern, made the two feel great. Ether was technically on vacation seeing as what he had to deal with on his last mission but he had to meet someone ins Sacae. A person who would know everything on what's going down in Bern and Illia and frankly the world.
The only problem was he didn't exactly know where to go but it was the middle of the morning and Ether and Vyer needed to find a place to find out where they were. Just then he noticed a house not very far and below from where he was so he decided that he might as the people staying there if he could get some directions. Vyer flew down right in front of the house and Ether then jumped off.
"Stay here buddy," Ether said as he started walking up to the door. Vyer then let out a loud roar which anyone close by could hear. "Way to be quiet," The white haired young man said as he then knocked on the door of the house.

(ooc: quick post to get things moving)
"ROAR!" - Wyvern
Grein was suddenly startled into waking up - grabbing his staff he stood up quickly looking around, unsure if the sound was in his sleep or something real. Then a knock came to the door, the timing startling him. Looking around he walked closer waiting for Zilo to come down.

Sitting there a sudden sound made Zilo jump up a little bit unsure of what was going on. All he knew was that there was someone at the door and they wanted in. Standing up and walking down stairs he didn’t wear a shirt at the moment because he had put it out to wash the night before to get the blood stains off. Thinking it was a bandit he opened the door raising his axe high in the air. But he noticed it was just a man in front of him. Blinking a little bit he felt stupid.
Bandits generally didn’t attack in the morning. It was late afternoon. But for some reason with these new house guests he felt a bit extra weary. Blinking for a moment he lowered his axe out of striking position but just enough to block an incoming attack if so happened. Looking the man over and saw the wyvern to his right. A bandit wasn’t to smart or keen to be riding a wyvern. So that was out of the question. And this man wore armor which most bandits and raiders didn’t. Thinking for a moment he coughed softly and looked him straight in the eye.
“Sorry about that. I thought that perhaps you where a bandit coming to attack this town again. But now that I think it over this half groggy mind of mine at the moment. I can tell your no bandit. And on top of that a bandit wouldn’t knock on the door.” He stood there at full height standing at a six foot four in height. Sure he was only 17 he was a giant. Turning around he saw Grein had awoken first. “I’m surprise you didn’t open the door first and whack the guy with that staff of yours.” He said laughing softly.

"Woah!" Ether had exclaimed as the man that had came to the door had a ax ready to cleave his head right off. He had to turn around and make sure Vyer wasn't about to tear this house down trying to protect him, now that would have been embarrassing.
"Hello!" Ether said rather happily and with a big smile on his face. "Trust me I'm far from a bandit, I'm a official Bern Wyvern Rider!" He said proud of his title.
"Any who sir I've been flying for quite some time and I was wondering if I could stay here for the night," Ether said as Vyer then slowly approached the house. "Where are my manners!" He said as his wyvern nudge his back with his big head. "This is my wyvern Vyer! The fast mode of transportation in all the world!" The white haired wyvern rider said smiling.
"I'll be a lot of help to you sir if you need it and Vyer will stay out of trouble," He added hoping he could stay.

Despite the rapping at the small house's front door, the healing man awakening and moving in his seat, and the young homeowner noisily answering the door to a white-haired rider and his stead, Sage remained soundly asleep. The comfort of the sofa was her cell bars in the prison of unconsciousness. In her sleep, she had the tendency to move and roll around. In her own bed at home, which was a comfortable, relatively generous size, it wouldn't be a problem. However, on a small couch, it ended with her on the floor.
Thud.
Speak of the devil. Awaking violently as soon as hitting the floor, the small myrmidon let out a very unladylike and loud string of curse words. She bolted into an upright sit and leaned over her body, her hair like a white curtain covering her face. She rubbed the back of her head slowly, feeling around for a bump. She didn't find one, but damn, she concluded, it still hurt like a sonuvabitch.
Slowly, Sage picked herself up off the floor, her face still curtained and hands still holding on to her non-bumped noggin.

Grein stepped back as Zilo opened the door, axe at the ready.
“I’m surprised you didn’t open the door first and whack the guy with that staff of yours.”
Grein shrugged - "I kind of thought it may be relatives or something - wouldn't want to hit your aunt on the head as a first impression." Upon hearing the thud behind them he laughed - "Anyways it isnt like she was going to get it."
The soldier said he was a Wyvern rider - from Bern? Grein wondered what he was doing here. There cant be many of them, and to fly freely too. He at the solider from over Zilo's shoulder - it was not his home to be on the side of caution but he spoke up anyways
"Why are you flying around here? By yourself?" - he had meant to sound nicer but somehow it somehow came out sounding as an accusation.

Zilo blinked a little bit as he saw the girl hit the floor with a thud. And then Grien making a remark about not wanting to hit someone that was a relative to Zilo. Laughing softly he shook his head and spoke. “All of my family is dead.” He turned back to the man in front of him and smiled softly.
“Sorry about that but sure you can come in. But let it be known if you cause any trouble theres three of us one of you. Then again you got that dragon of yours but without your leadership I don’t think it will do very well.” He said sounding nice.
He knew that Grein was suspicious as he was. Because it wasn’t every day that a bern soldier flew freely. They had started many wars and had lost some of them till a hero or something came along. Little did he know though that some might be good? “Well welcome to the house. There’s a small barn outback that is big enough for the dragon. And if hungry it can snack on the meat in the shed. There’s bear beef and goat meat hanging there.” He said laughing and walking towards the girl that had fallen.
He offered her a hand up and smiled slightly. “Are you ok there? Looks like that hurt your head a little bit.” He looked around and spotted a rag he took it into the kitchen and got some cool water on it and brought it back handing to the girl to place on her head. “I figure that it will help alittle.” He thought looking back at Grein. “Just curious though can you use anything other than healing Troubadour?” He was curious as to if he could or not. But if the man didn’t want to answer he could understand.

"I'm looking for a certain informant that can help me get some information that I crucially need," Ether said answering Grein's question. "The name's Ether Alzen by the way," He added as he then looked past the two men to see a white haired woman fall off a couch. He couldn't help but chuckle a bit at the woman, she must have had one heck of a night.
He then followed them in and thought about what Zilo had said. So what if there are three of you? Ether had Vyer and that was enough but it wouldn't come to that anyway. Ether wasn't going to do anything to harm these people he had no reason. He then remembered there was a second part to Grein's question.
"Oh I'm on vacation but I'm spending it working I guess. I figure I'm becoming a workaholic," Ether said laughing a bit as he then got a better look at this white haired woman. She was quite beautiful, her hair, her eyes everything Ether wasn't going to act on his feelings of course mainly because he had a thing with Michelle but he never straight out said it.
"You alright miss? A pretty thing like yourself should be more careful," Ether asked smiling to the woman in front of her. He then looked back and noticed Vyer and flown off somewhere.

Accepting not the hand, not out of hate or anything but just out of pure ignorance, Sage peeled her hands from the back of her head and sat down on the couch with a heavy sigh. After doing so, she opened her eyes. There was a new guy now. He was in heavy-looking armor and had hair very similar in non-color to her own.
“Are you ok there? Looks like that hurt your head a little bit.”
The myrmidon turned her attention back on the young homeowner, whom had a damp-looking rag in hand and something of a half-smile on his face. She shook her head and held up a hand.
"No, no. 'S fine. I'm alright. Been handling bumps on the head since I was born. Most by pirates twice your size!" Sage responded with a white grin.
Unconsciously, she reached behind her to pull out the piece of twine she had used to keep her hair back. After letting all of her hair cascade to her back and shoulders, she smoothed it and detangled it with her fingers to tie it back up.
"You alright miss? A pretty thing like yourself should be more careful," The new guy had said, also offering a smile.
Sage's grin turned into a sideways frown. She stared the man in the eye for a moment. She figured with the way he carried himself, he was some sort of military man. She closed her eyes and shook her head, harder this time than the first.
"No, no, no. I aint a little glass doll, y'know? I'mma adventurer. And I'm fine."

Grein walked back to his chair and sat facing the group. The whole event had woken him up pretty good now. He looked outside but to his disappointment it was still dark. The soldier said he was on vacation but looking for somebody? Grein didn't like the sound of that - soldiers made him uneasy, especially wyvern from Bern. He tried shrugging it off, and look at it as safety in numbers.
This evening had gone quite strange and he was sure he was very far from the road to Bern. Trying not to think about the mess of it all he addressed the group
"Well, I am planning on heading back towards Bern first thing tomorrow. Id heard there was a route not too far up in the mountains that would take me close enough to the western border." he shrugged "I got lost looking for it"
He needed money and hoped to get to a port town where there would be opportunity to earn some gold and send mail to some of his relatives.
"I should probably try to go to sleep though." he said yawning finally
edit: (ooc: I am cool with going with Ether as long as we get going >.> don't want to take another post to say that so you guys decide lol)

"If you are headed towards Bern I might be able to take you there on Vyer it won't take long, Vyer's the fastest thing alive," Ether said hearing a thud on the roof. He scratched the backside of his heading hoping that no one heard the the thud. It was Vyer probably perched up on the roof waiting for something to do.
"The person I'm looking for should be in a small town not far from here," Ether added as he then placed his right hand on his chin making a thinking face as he thought about the possiblity of the person he was looking for being there.
"He's a slippery one though and probably won't be there for to long," He added. "I would need to get there as soon as possible but I seeing as I'm not really from here I was wondering if someone would accompany me to the town so I wouldn't get into any trouble I'm not sure if people around here are comfortable with Bern soldiers hanging around," Ether said as he heard an ever louder thud. What was Vyer doing?!

Zilo sat there for a moment as the girl seemed to have a hasty remark to the man in front of her. He didn’t exactly blame her. From what he had learned in the past bern had started countless wars and had lost them. And she didn’t look like she actually enjoyed the man standing here. Laughing a little bit he looked at Grein that said he needed a little sleep. Nodding in agreement he thought for a minute and smiled. “Here Dragon Rider. Take the bed upstairs I’ll wait down here with these three and discuss something. Now I won’t hide it behind ya but I need to discuss about you. I don’t know if I can fully trust you but you can use the bed if you wish. And do not worry you have my sacaen honor that you will not be harmed while under my roof this night.”Turning to the other two he let out a small smile and sat down and then got a serious look on his face for a moment. “If he chooses to leave or stay and listen doesn’t bother me. As I said I won’t say anything behind his back if he wants. I will be blunt like this. If we travel with him for a little while it may prove to be a nice adventure and also even our odds on surviving some more encounters with some enemies. I know bern was pretty bad in the past but that is only history. Maybe this one is different or maybe hes like all soldiers. But that is something we will find out. I leave it up to you two. Shall we join him on his adventure or shall we decide if its time to go separate ways after tonight and see each other off?”He was curious as to what their response would be. And that was something that kinda intrigued him a little bit. He didn’t know much but he knew the Myrmidion he had not asked her what she thought about all this or Grein he coughed a little and spoke directly. “And also I want to know your guys opinions about this.” He spoke looking straight up at both of them. Maybe if he became stronger traveling with them he would be able to protect his village from bandits that would attack later on. And he would be like his father and protect this village. (OCC:So sorry guys. Had Medical homework over the arteries and which parts of the nervous system that we have to be careful and not touch and exams coming up and cramming this. On top of working .)

(ooc: I know I am messing up the order a bit but giving Sage and Ether something to work with. This order makes more sense too)
Grein listened as the woodsman explained their options. It was quite the mess he was in now, but he was really starting to like Zilo. Also he was a firm believer that healers survive better in groups.
"Personally, I have no qualms helping soldier, provided he explains the situation fully. People like him are useful to work with, he should be familiar with current events in Bern" - He had already told them that is the direction he was headed, and more information about a place is always useful. Also he doubted the man would be involved in anything illegal, it just sounded like he was tracking some criminal.
He looked back and forth from the adventurer to the woodsman, then added. "My final destination is Bern. I was hoping to find a port town, I need money and there is plenty of work to be found there. However I am not in that much a hurry."

The woodsman suggested to the militant to take his bed upstairs, then said that he wished to speak to Sage and Grein alone. The white-haired myrmidon blinked quickly in confusion. What could there really be to talk about? They weren't really friends, or associates, even. She saved the guy's hiney from a big, bad bandit and he let her crash on the couch. Maybe to the Sacaens, that makes allianceship? She turned her body towards Zilo as he spoke, as to show him she was paying attention. He took a long time to ask a short question: stick together or split apart?
As the young journeyman finished speaking, and the healer started to discuss his own opinion, the myrmidon got a little bored. She itched for journey, so of course she wanted to go. If she went by herself, she'd probably just get lost (again) and wander around aimlessly and cluelessly (again).
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm definitely comin'!" She announced with excitement, a big, bright grin on her face after finally getting the chance to speak. "So when're we getting this show on the road?"
In her seat, she had her legs folded in front of her and was rocking back and forth in childlike anticipation. It was still obviously too early to get going, and the bandits loved to pick on travelers at night. Those facts were pesky for the stubborn myrmidon, whom would travel through a war zone if told it was stupid and dangerous.
