"I stowed away on your ship. Turns out a bunch of drunken pirates aren't the best guards for cargo, huh?"

[Seraphinox]

"The rest of our crew doesn't fall into the cliches, you just got the three idiots who aren't good at anything else" Zareal said "anyway, now what do we do?, we sem to be embroiled in some sort of war in this land"

[Rennac]

Zorn blinked, and said "Yeah... I guess we have three options. We could join these guys and fight, we could become mercenaries... and fight, or we could steal a ship and get our asses out of here."

[Seraphinox]

"I'm too lazy to do the third one, and anyway I want to go exploring, so the second option it is, I'm not getting brough up into a stupid war, I don't even know these people.' Zareal said

"I like the mercenary idea though, we get out of here while the other two are sleeping?"

[Rennac]

Zorn grinned. He liked the way the guy thought. "Great. Let's go, Zareal. Looks like crashing on this rock might not be that bad, eh?" Zorn started to walk out of the hut, stepping over the "Door".

[Seraphinox]

Zareal quickly followed leaving the other two behind as they slept. They started to head off along the path....

[Mankut]

Mankut silently followed the two travelers. He had left a note for Ash and was now listening to the plans of the two men in front of him. "So where are you guys going?" Mankut asked, unsheathing his sword. "Seems like your walking out on us. So this is how pirates and thieves act. Pretty wimpy." Mankut taunted the two men, trying to bait them into a fight, which he was confident he could win. "I knew you were weak, little thief, but I didn't think you, Zareal, would walk out on us." Mankut knew he was being harsh, but they couldn't trust anyone now. They could be double agents or assassins.

[Rennac]

" It's not like you could actually win this. From what I saw, you could barely defeat a handful of poorly trained soldiers. If you're really going to get in my way, I'll go without Zareal. Then I'll tell the army about this little hideout, and collect the bounty." Zorn smirked, seeing Mankut's arm tense, ready for a fight. "Heh..."

[Seraphinox]

"I have been in this country for less then a day, I don't see any need to help people I do not even know" Zareal said calmly "The one thing that is on my mind is to explore this new land and earn some money, with no money how are any of us going to survive?"

[Mankut]

"You weren't doing anything. How do you know how strong those soldiers were." Mankut retorted. "If you guys join Zion, you'll know where one of our bases are. You'll know valuable info. So, I can't let you guys leave."

[Seraphinox]

"If we promise to say nothing will you let us leave, I don't even know what you're fighting for." Said Zareal "And you call that a base?, You'd be better off climbing a tree you'd be better hidden,"

[Rennac]

"Why bother with that? We can take him. Even... Even if we can't, he'll be incapacitated. Then we can go." Zorn took two daggers out of sheaths on either side of his body, knowing this would probably come to a fight.

[Seraphinox]

*Look at all the armour he's wearing though, we could easily outrun him. I'd like to avoid a fight this early on anyway" Zareal said as he took out his axe. "But if it must come to a fight, just knock him out and we leg-it out of here"

[Rennac]

((I guess you picked up an axe at the base?))

[Seraphinox]

(I stole it off a soldier)

[Mankut]

"This armor is extremely light, plus I know this forest like the back of my hand. But, if you want a fight, then come on!" Mankut yelled the last two words and attacked Zorn.

[Seraphinox]

Zareal saw Mankut jump at Zorn and took a step back.

"Woah" He said "I'm sure we can figure this out peacefully no?"

[Rennac]

"No, this fool doesn't feel like stepping away." Zorn pivoted to one side, the sword slashing throgh the air. "He's much too rash." Zorn twisted again, to the back of Mankut, stabbing at his spine.

[Seraphinox]

Zareal was shocked at Zorns fighting ability. He decided to retreat a few more steps just in case. He didn't want to fight if possible, but would if he was forced.

"Knock him out don't kill him" Yelled Zareal

[Rennac]

"Oh, yeah..." Zorn responded to Zareal's exclamation, checking his dagger, then trying to slam his elbow into Mankut's ribs.
