"Yeah? And what did you do all night? Howl at things?" CP asked rhetorically. It didn't exactly sound like much fun either. "Where are we going and why, again?"

Apparently being out in the open has weakened his nerve some.

As the group walks out the pub, the are greeted by what appears to be a beautiful day.

They turn right towards the new path. As they approach it, they see it has an arch over it, decorated with a green banner. On it is a black skull with a gold crown

"Perhaps Swix is also curious of the road that had appeared recently?" Jent asked openly. "See? There are already banners of some group over-seeing in that direction."

Directing their attention at the signs, the wavering symbols seemed to give a weird feeling in his mind. Like if... someone was watching.

"No I didn't just 'howl at things'" Swix answered CPs rhetorical question anyway, annoyed. There were a lot of other things she could and did do as a wolf...

"Yep, that's right, that's the one I'm curious about" Swix answered Jent when he asked, stopping to look up and admire the symbols on the banners "I wonder who those belong to... oh well, I suppose we'll find out" The Split humanoid started walking down the path.

Laur felt the presence of the three traversing the particular road she had deigned to go down, the once reluctant mutant turned her piercing gaze upon them as she decelerated her pace some to join with them ahead of the symbolic banners. The woman offered the group a carefully calculated non-threatening smile, then followed it up with the words:

"My apologies, however as we four appear to be intent upon exploring this particular path, would you object to my presence within your group? It has been a particularly long time since I had the pleasure of others company"

Jent paused with the sudden confrontation by the stranger, apparently expecting her to be the silent type, stilling his breath as she spoke. "That-erm, wouldn't be a problem at all," he stuttered. "It's just saw these banners when I was fall-ah-walking back to the Encampment, seeing it out of place. But, of course join us! The more the merrier."

Still experiencing troubled dreams, visions most frequent at the stroke of dawn, Jent felt like a puppet tangled in its own strings. Nervous, he braced his head back with an arm. "Don't mind me, thoughts gone turning is all."

"I'm sure... that would probably be alright." The mouse eventuality told Laur in an attempt to make nice. His expresssions unfortunately didn't seem to match, as he sunk lower to Swix's head in nervousness. "Lets go see what we see then?" He asked, not content to stand around.

Swix stared at the woman, frowning, then turned her head and began to continue walking down the path "I don't see why not"

"Very well" Laur acquiesced to the pair who seemed to be seeking solitude within this particular group of three, instead turning her attention upon the man that had volunteered a little more information upon his own initiative "Thoughts gone turning is a feeling I am particularly familiar with. Do you wish to expand upon these thoughts or would you prefer to continue on in silence?"
