Ari smiled. "Ari is my name. You can find me at the palace in Aaedan." And at this she turned and left the tent. "Well then Ari, do not make me regret not eating you. Heh." His teeth arranged into a smile as she was permitted to leave the camp site. Most of the other kobolds outside the tent left her alone as she left, as they knew harassing her further would get them chained up and lashed.

@ Nat'ia "Ah, no, do not trouble him. I will simply inspect the camp and offer what services I can." He bowed and started to look around. "I must say I am well pleased by your hospitality despite your troop's exhaustion. I know there is bad blood between your kind and humans, but I think you'll sense that we are not normal humans. I am perhaps the closest, but I was rejected by my kind for having too much vision and not enough compassion. Oddly enough, I do not discriminate towards other humanoids, which might be considered a good trait among them..." He noted one of the prisoners, and gave it an evil grin. "It is only the weak I despise. Your tenacity has earned my favor captain. I believe you will view my men favorably as well, that is, so long as you don't look down on therianthropy, particularly hyenas." His guards all laughed. It was a human laugh, but unusually mischievous, nimble, and somewhat higher pitched. Their cackling would unnerve any normal human for sure. "Alright I will let him be, he should be finished soon anyways." She offered him a crude seat made of a log that sat next to a fire, before taking one herself. "When you give us relief, we give part of it back and keep the ungrateful ones in chains and pain. To me, your abilities or gender should not determine your hatred. Only your actions and the past actions can earn that title. Sadly, I can not say that we all hold all the same opinions, so some of us will still hold grudges." She loosened up a little. "I thank you for your honorable favor, High Lord Ukufila." She bowed her head after the guard's strange laugh and proceeded to grab a roll of cloth and begin wrapping it around a gash in her left forearm. "I've been worse off before..." She sighed and half closed her eyes.

He sat down. "It is, an interesting turn of events... for us to be united under a single banner. These raiding parties are only the beginning, soon Lord Demigrem will have our kingdom established, and we may go on more, how would we say, ambitious exertions. In a sense, it is wonderful, so many different peoples united against the tyranny of lesser foes. I believe your people's persecution at the hands of normal humans will be at an end, and those of us of greater stock can live together, with your kind."
The other men looked around the camp for opportunities to assist.
Meanwhile, a soft, periodic rumbling sound could be heard in the distance.
"My reinforcements approach."

((Posting as Nat'ia and Zhax to save time/space)) Nat'ia finished bandaging herself and spoke. "One can only hope such things change..." Zhax finally emerges from his tent guard by 2 high Guards, shouting after his dealing with Ari. "We move in a fortnight! We head for Aaedan!" The results were mixed, some cheered, booed or just stood quiet. Almost everyone started to move or started packing up. Zhax spotted Ukufa on his exit and ran over to him to greet him. "Ah, it is good to see you Ukufa! I heard you were here with I supplies and I must thank you for that. I hope you are not too fatigued Ukufila, for we move soon." He turned to Nat'ia, "you know what to do, get everyone some sleep and pack in the morning." She nodded and ran off to direct her unit.

"A fortnight should be plenty of time to prepare. I am fine. I enjoy long travels, as do my forces. If you could be so kind as to not attack any hyenas you see in the camp, as well as spare any giant bats, it would be most appreciated."
The rumbling sound continued. "Ah, as well as that. Mokelembebe has arrived. If you move just outside the camp you will find a very large reptile, about twice the size of a war elephant, with long neck and spines. She will be carrying most of the food. She herself eats vegetation, so you will not have to share! Hahaha."
"One more thing, captain, if you would be so kind, my specialty is poisons but I have a fair amount of experience in medicine as well. If you show me to the medical tent, I will be happy to assist in your treatment of the wounded."

"Perfect..." He rubbed his hands together slowly. "I will inform them not to kill or harm any of them. A great pack animal indeed, you've brought a good selection of troops with I see. I must be off organizing the troops and getting rest. We can speak further at sunrise if you wish." He hurriedly shouted at a File Sergeant to get his line moving and then went into his main tent.
The captain stopped before she got to far away. "Yes, I can direct you to it. This way." She led him off to the medical tents. ((Initiate time skip until morning))

It was a beautiful morning. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, the prisoners were shouting in desperation and agony, and all was right with the world.
Ukufa, for his part, liked getting early morning starts, so he was already busy in the medical tent, helping himself to some of the herbs his men brought in medical supplies and using them in his experiments. His weapons were purring, satisfied at the meal they had received the previous night (the olitiau had located a deer not too far off, which not only helped feed some of Zhax'n's men, but also provided blood for his weapons). He was currently trying to isolate more neurotoxin from a deadly plant which his whip seemed to like absorbing.
At the moment, he was absorbed in grinding the plant down in a stone grinder.

The captain had made sure she and her men got rest while Zhax finished giving out orders last night. Her physical energy and strength returned last night, enough to keep going. The bandage was still present on her left forearm, armor covering most of it. She came back to the medical tent to see how Ukufila's progress was doing. "It is great to see more of us alive and on our feet with full stomachs. I can't thank you enough, If you evar need something done, just ask." She went to a table, grabbed a fresh rag, sat down and started unwrapping the old one. "Zhax should be awake soon, he was up last night and invited someone to share his bedchambers with a Lovely." She smirked a little bit, it was funny and she was in a good mood, besides one thing that troubled her...

Ukufa nodded. "Thank you for your offer." He took out a vial of a strange, salt-like substance, mixed it with some water, and added it to the grinder, hoping it would isolate the poison.
He then sat down and took a break. "Your wound is healing quite well." He would then notice something was off about the captain. She seemed a bit distant. "Is something troubling you or are you just tired?"

"Is something troubling you or are you just tired?" She finished removing the old bandage and responded while cleaning the wound. "Yes, one of my initial scouts has appeared to have gone missing, I feel he was either killed or captured. It pains me to hear either of those things, but even more when the enemy has an idea when we're coming." The cut was clean and she applied the fresh bandage over it, stood up and bowed to Ukufila. "Now excuse me High Lord Ukufila, I have troops to address who are most likely slacking off." With that she hurried away down the rough path.

Zhax emerged from the front end of his tent as a female kiggy crawled away out the back, no doubt the one he slept with. He took a moment to shake himself off and located Ukufila. "Ahh, now that it is morning, shall I ask if anymore reinforcements are coming? Do you know if Lord Demigrem has sent and orders? I was to tired to receive anything last night..." He had taken a seat next to Ukufila with two high Guards on either side of him. "Oh, and Captain Nat'ia is going to scout our new site, she was concerned of danger and we moved it back from enemy territory. Most importantly, a lizardfolk Lieutenant will meet up with Nat'ia to confirm our threat via telepathy and send additional reinforcements."

"Ah, according to Labefacto Demigrem Demiarch, we are free to do as we wish at the moment. However, as soon as we are ready, we are to coordinate in the pursuit of several evil artifacts. The sword of a man named Ulfgang Von Haren, who resides somewhere in Asgeir, and another artifact called the Betrayer's Chalice. Its whereabouts will be briefed to us by Bupae very soon. I believe our friend Hotaru Nishida already in pursuit of the former, though she may require assistance. They say he is not to be trifled with except by a most mighty warrior. As for our raid, if you wish to inflict serious damage on Aaedan, we can summon more reinforcements." Ukufa was dressed down a bit, his leather armor and whip on a table off to the side. But the whip itself began to rattle. "Forgive me. Isilungu Idla is growing impatient." He took the weapon from the table and hovered it over his stone grinder. The thing shuddered in his hands as he slowly lowered the tip of the leather (if that's what it really was) into the solution. "My weapon feeds on blood and poison, and adopts the properties of whatever poison it feeds on. It can currently inflict great pain and paralysis on its foes. Moonlighter plants are a wonderful work of nature..." "Your captain told me she had grave concerns over a scout that was sent to the Western Road. He has not returned and she fears he is dead."

"Ah, artifacts yes. I know this Ulfang from a uh... rather unpleasant experience months ago." His memory was jogged by the pain, the demon, and that weird justice guy. "I have not heard of this chalice however. I can move to assist rather than attack Aaedan, we have not began moving yet."
He noticed the weapon's strange behavior. "That is quite unique and exquisite... Yes she has told me, our initial camp site was moved back away from their borders, just in case. Now, I will be off with a patrol harvesting plants, contact me through the seal if anything turns up."

A man riding a dark grey horse approaches the camp. He is dressed in a dark traveling cloak, hood pulled up against the sun. A dark goatee offsets the light skin of his face, and hollowed blue eyes stare from underneath a tight-fleshed brow. He appears to have no weapons, but is horse has saddle bags and a traveling bed roll.
As he approaches, he signals peaceful intent by raising his hands where the outlying posted units can see him and waits to be addressed.

The horseman would be met by four of Zhax's spearmen, each had pointed their spears at the man. A toothy and rather veteran kobold spoke to him, "Whatca wahnt?" He paused for a moment as if he'd forgotten a important detail. "I mean, state your business before we decide to gut ya!" The group eyed him, it was obvious he wanted to talk to someone higher up, but they might as well try and get some kicks out of it or a free meal.

"My name is Apus," the stranger stated plainly. "I wish to speak to a commander or leader in regards to hiring your... forces." The figure dismounted the horse and stood unmoving afterward, one hand on the pommel of the horses saddle and the other loosely at his side. He indicates one of the saddle bags with a nod, "I have money."
Pulling back his hood revealed a man in his late 40s with greying temples and very dark hair. His goatee was neatly trimmed and his face well kept, despite the skin being pale and showing slight darkening under the eyes. When his hand hung loose again at his side, a bracelet with small bone fetishes could be seen dangling out of the sleeve of his robes.

The patrol looked as if the were about to debate slicing open his horse up until the word "money" was mentioned in his speech. "Why didn't yah say so, we'll take you straight to Zhax, he's the head man here right now. Follow us so you don't look like a trespasser and get your head removed from your shoulders." The group passed what could be considered the camp's main gate and street, the side spectators glared at the human from the sidelines but let him go on about with the group. Soon enough they came to a big tent, which presumably was the main tent, and passed through the curtains and went inside. Zhax was there on sitting on a large makeshift throne and he we actively sharpening one of his daggers with a stone. He looked up from his blade, "Who might this man be, and what makes him so important?"

After being led to the tent, Apus grabbed a large satchel from one of the saddlebags and followed the small creature inside. "Greetings," replied Apus in a surprisingly unfaltering tone. "I have come to hire you." He tossed the satchel on the ground, which spilled out various coins and jeweled trinkets. "I've heard you raid for money. I'd like you to raid the town of Eaddtun. Burn it to the ground. Anything you find there is yours, I only wish it gone from this world."
Unblinking eyes looked up at Zhax'n, assessing whether the group's leader was interested in the request or not.

Unblinking eyes looked up at Zhax'n, assessing whether the group's leader was interested in the request or not. Zhax and his high honor guards watched the jewelry and money spill out onto the old plank floor, he had Zhax's attention. He set the stone down on the throne's armrest and sheathed his dagger. Zhax admired the man's brave behavior, he must be determined. "If say this place is just a town, I think we'd have a deal. I feel there something different about this one, what is the 'catch' at this town?" He leaned forward towards the man, like he was ready to hear the man's secret or get out of his chair and instinctively cut him down.
