As soon as Ashia said it is alright to have spirit animals out, Lunar appears again. Jay agrees to the last statement with a glance towards Brandon, "Some animals don't do well with ships and that definitely includes humans."
He pauses a moment. "You've caught my interest: what happened the last time Scarlet was on a ship? Did she tear it up or something?"

"I have no clue." Olvan nods his thanks to Lenori and goes to talk to Seth first. He smiles at Seth, noting the pale color and silently worrying for him. "I'm glad you were able to make it this far given that you ran into trouble with Conquerors. Did you chance upon discovering what were they after? You said something about a talisman... Is that what they're after or do they have one to help them?"

"The Bamboo Panda is in Zhong somewhere. Gerathon is helping them. She's free," Seth answers sounding weak.
Lenori looks at Olvan, "Do you know when they plan to free Kovo?"
"Soon. Halawir."
Lenori pales.


"Scarlet about fell overboard after the ship was attacked," Justin answers.
"We were coming from Steriol and we got ambushed by pirates who cornored our ship. Some of the pirates had spirit animals. One of which was an annoying seagull," Ashia explains, "who about threw Scarlet off the ship."

Olvan sucks in a breath through his teeth. This wasn't the best news. The worst part is that the Conquerors had already had a plan and he would have to think of a counter one. "Thank you, Seth. I have a feeling we'll need you, so I think I'll have to tell you to not go back to looking for the thief for a while."

Jay stifles a laugh. "Seagulls are annoying. I am glad Scarlet didn't get thrown overboard. I don't have any sailing experiences quite like that. I can tell you what I've heard from others, though." Lunar lands on the railing of the ship and settles down, watching the crew.

Seth looks at him, "No find the Bamboo Panda first. Thief knows where." He passes out after saying that.
The healers look at Olvan, "We need to take him now."


"Sure just don't exagerate this time," Ashia says, "and I'm glad too."
Justin looks at the ocean, "I hope the Greencloaks get ready so we can go soon."

Olvan nods to both Seth and then to the healers when Seth passes out and heads to leave. They would go with the thief, find the bamboo panda, and stop the conquerors.

"Ah, but exaggerating is the fun part!" Jayden says with a smile. He starts to tell a tell a tale of a sailor who kept running into trouble with giant birds and sea monsters.

"Jay we need to blend in and your stories aren't doing us any favors,'' Ashia says.

(Time skip to Zhong?)

(Sure thing.)

(Skip)

By the time they got there Ashia was more then ready to disembark. She was tired of getting sprayed and chilled by the ocean besides this was Conquorer controled territory. Ashia waits inpaciently for the crew to lower the plank before walking off. Justin follows ready to help Hazel, Jay, and Brandon down.

(So who are you sending to follow them as Greencloaks?)

Brandon is more than ready to get on dry, solid, and firm ground. He shoots off the boat as soon as possible and paces around aimlessly, not getting out of the small group's sight, though. He keeps stumbling, adjusting from the absence of the boat's movement.

Hazel waits her turn to get off and accepts Justin's help. Her books are tucked tightly under her arm as she looks around anxiously. She's never been in Zhong before but she's always liked seeing new places.

Jay whistles merrily as he hops off the boat and surveys the place. He runs a hand through his hair before he stuffs both hands in his pockets. "Alright, we're at Zhong, we've got some Greencloak people. Let's go turn the tides of war in our favor."

(I don't know... Would you prefer NPCs or OCs?)

Ashia quickly steps on Jay's foot, "Did you not just hear what I said? Conquorer controled territory we are outlaws here. So put the pieces together or I will leave you here."
Justin shakes his head at Jay's remark, "We should gte moving and remember be careful if you have to use gold to keep the lands you choose the pieces from as far from Greencloak control as possible."
Ashia sets off at a quick pace wanting to get off the docks and if the Greencloaks followed she hoped they would at least be discrete.


(Either works)
