Darim-23 years old- Trail

A bit flustered that he had been ignored the boy turned around to look at the man as if to scold him though the sight of the lioness was enough to make him forget it. "She shouldn't be far behind should she?" He asked more to himself than to the others. As much as he wished to worry though he had a job to do. A woolen blacker was placed about the older man to keep him from getting chilled as well as to burn out the fever. If mother had taught him anything it was this and how to take care of younger children if the need should arise. Her teachings and father's teachings were very different though both would be useful down the road. Hopefully at the end of all this they would find them both. ""I'm almost done here. And the storm had almost blown over. We should really think about moving on." It pained him to say it, after all Atara would be left behind when they went on.

He looked at the animal that aproached him, purring as if she greated a old friend or even packmember. A bit cautiously he gently stroked the animal. "We can only hope she is not packless for now." he said looking down at the animal. The brightblue lighria purred happily by the stroking before walking up towards Darim all while purring. The sound of hooves that came from their ... right ... picked his attention and on pure instinct he grabbed his sword, holding it ready to strike. But as the silouett of a woman on a horse apeared he slowly relaxed. "Why the bloody hell did you take that way?!" he asked compleatly taken by the stupied and dangerous way.

The animal did as told althought beeing happy about it was not something he had to be. And it was shown quiet clearly by the ears beeing pressed against its neck. After riding a while she found a way up and took it. Okej, this is something atleast. With a giangt leap the horse took the last step up, stumbling a bit on a few rocks that fell down before both the rider and the animal relaxed a bit. Finally safe on the road. Okej, now she just needs to ride back while following the road. The hooves was giving of a soft, gentle sound as she let it walk forwords with long reins, relaxing and taking a bit of a breather. When she saw two of them, one she assumed beeing Darim with the man in his arms she just smiled under her hood and bowed her head. When she heard the question she couldnt help but laugh a bit. "I was told by a ocenlike lioness that this was a safe and quick way to find you all. So far she have not lied to me so I see no reason to doubt her." she answered truthfully.

Call it instinct if you would, or even passion that the boy found for the woman upon her return but one thing it wasn't was anger. He stood upon hearing the hoovesteps. It was her! She did live on even as others didn't! It might have been a miracle even that she had returned to them. In a fit of joy he found his way to her leaving Malik to rest in the still warm sand. "And to think I was starting to get worried." He said from where he stood at the side of the horse she rode. To let the moment stand would be ideal though he knew that it would pass sure enough. He didn't want to seem desperate though he honestly wanted to pull her from the steed and hug her close. She had given him quiet a fright after all!

He couldnt help but smirk a bit. The boy was acting pretty much just the way he had acted with his wife when he was young. This is both amusing and worrying at the same time. Its quiet amuzing to see his own actions in someone else, but its troublesom, specially if it will prove to be a distraction for the boy. With that he quietly left the two youngsters alone, tracking down Shadir with ease. "Are you okey?" he asked while walking next to the animal that Shadir rode.

As Darim left the man to his own, walking up to her she got a tad baffeld but just smiled politely. "Worry? About me? Now why would you do that? Did I not say I wold catch up once I had given a show?" she asked calmly with her smile still resting gently on her lips. With a soft, used movement she got her leg over the horses back, getting down from the animal. "oh yeah, did you come here with anyone?" she asked , stroking the animal over the throat as it glared at her, looking as if it cursed the rider.

The sudden voice beside him made the man jump a bit. "What?" Was he okay? "Oh yes I am just a bit lost in thought for a moment was all." He said looking off at the mountains in the distance. "You really think we can pull this off Dagon?" Shadir asked suddenly not bothering to look at the man next to him. It was a bit late to be asking but he wanted to know what the man thought of this whole idea. "Be honest now." He just wanted an honest answer. In a world where nothing was supposed to be true, yet it was all permitted he just wanted to be able to make sure for certain that they were doing right.

"It's inhuman not to worry." The man answered before thinking of her next question. "I did with Malik yes, but he is resting now. I can't help but feel bad for the man." With that the boy looked back at the withered older man. His hair was nearly all grey even to the beard he spotted on his thin face. "He's a fighter, least from the man I know. He won't let this get him down. If you can count on anyone its Malik." Maybe he was saying a bit much about himself and how he knew the man before them but right now it mattered not. She was bound to find out they knew each other if she hadn't linked it together already.

He looked at Shadir as he jumped, had he been that quiet? He really hadnt been to keen on beening quiet. Perhaps it was just a habit he did unintentionly. As he got his answer he nodded, standing next to his friend in silence, just looking ahead of them. As he was told to be honest as he was tp answer the question he didnt say anything for quiet some time. "Right now im not sure, but one can always hope. However i do belive we have yet a new problem with us.. " he said in a honest and straight to the point way. Something he tended to do. He was silent a few more moents bfore sighing. "Darim is pretty much acting like a smitten youngster. Kinda like I did with my wife at that age. It probably wont help us to be honest." he finnished his sentence while still looking ahead of them.

She got a confused look on her face wile looking at her. "You know anyone else then? I was told by someone, a voice i didnt know, to be nice to you. And this person, whoever he is helped me out in the village." she said a bit thoughtfull. If he dont know who it can be, then someone who shares their ideas must have picked up on what was happening, right? Or was it an trap to track them down? If so, then she have put them all in danger. Why had she not realiced this sooner? Well, granted there hadnt been much time for thinking really.

"He'll be fine, he knows when to show those feelings and when not to. Atara though might not be so easily tamed. She's a wild card and will act it when given the chance. Other than that I have faith in the both of them." He said with a sigh. "Come now we haven't got time for this. Numair will be waiting for us. Don't want him to worry about us."

Darim-23 years old- Trail

A chuckle escaped as he shook his head. "That must have been Sef, my younger brother. Don't mind him, he means only to aid us in our journey." With that said the boy turned back to his older friend. "Best get a move on, he doesn't need to be on a horse longer than he had to in his state."

As Shadir spoke up he looked at the man next to him. When the man next to him talked he simply stayed silent, listening carefully. "Werry well then." he said with a slow nod. He trusts Shadirs judgment so if he says its okej it is most likely okej. He cant remember ever seeing the boy so he have no knowledge about him and Atara ... well he knows WHAT she is but not who she is. She is a woman that was brought into the creed from the streets. That is pretty much all he know about her ecept the fact that she is a long distance fighter. He knows OF her, but nothing about her. With a last look at the horizon before him before he turned, walking after Shadir on his horse.

She looked a bit surpriced at him as he shuckled. Oh, he have a younger brother? With that said she nodded and lead the gelding after Darim towards the old man. Well it is as he says, they better move ahead before they start to collect themselves in the village. "im glad to see you as well gorgeous" she smiled at the ligriha that happily jumped up to her, purring while stroking against her legs. With calm, gentle movements she stroke the animal that seemed happy by the treatment.

Finally they had made it! How it would feel to be able to sleep inside again in no fear of being found! It was like a blessing in the form of a large city. The man slid from the horse allowing it to wander about the makeshift stables. "And there it is! I can't wait to speak with Numair, I have so much we need to speak of." He said more or less to himself as he waited for the others to catch up. Shadir had rode ahead to make sure all was safe for the others before they arrived. It all seemed clear for the most part. Now they just had to find Numair.

"Look at it, like a beacon of hope in the abyss of a sandy tomb." The older man said from his seat behind Darim.
"You sure are one with words Malik." The boy chuckled looking back at the others. "Hey come on Shadir used the signal, no harm down there." He called back to them. "Hey Atara how about a race?"

Dagon Hajjar - 35(m) - Acer Front Gate

he just sat quietly on his horse. Honestly speaking he hadnt said much the entire jeurney. Instead he had simply observed, and answered when spoken to. However he had never really feelt that he had something to add to a conversation or a reason to start one. So instead he had been quiet, giving thoughts to the job ahead of them and what he had left behind, if he would have anything to return to at all. As Malik spoke he was drawn out of his thoughts and he smiled at the man before starting to make the animal move, he had seen the signal just as Darim commented on it. When Atara passed him in full speed he rolled his eyes a bit.Kids ... was he ever so reckless?



Atara - 22(f) - Acer Front Gate

"I wold love to hear some tales of yours one day." she smiled at the old man before shuckling a bit at Darim. "Darim, you have raced me every day so far, yet you have to win a single race, do you truley hink today would end diffrently?" she asked, tilting her head to the side. With a smirk on her lips however she simply stood up in the stirups, quickly giving the horse a gentle yet firm squees with her legs. Without any hessitation the animal dashed forwards with its ears peaking forwards and a playfull little bucking in the middle of a stepp. As she laughed to the animal she gently stroked its neck as it quickly carried her towards Shadir.
