(Thank you for helping me understand. And me neither on reading the whole series. (just need three more books to finish, but my library doesn't have them.) Also, please forgive possible spelling errors X3)
Start:
Here we are! Harothe says, motioning to the big fort thing right in front of you. Dont get too excited - or nervous. Everyone here is usually nice on a regular basis. " The sun in the sky beats down on the weary travelers.
"Ah, great. They will be serving lunch around this time. We sure could use some well earned food, right?" He says, rubbing his hands together and looking at you with a smile.
As the two of you enter, Harothe says, "I can show you to your room right now and food can be sent to you, or you can come to the dinning hall with me, eat there, and meet some friends - if they're here at the current moment."
(Yeah, sorry, I should've been more specific with her backstory)
Ceto Arethusa
I look at the large fort, trying to calm my anxiety about the new place. I was so used to Green being a color of the enemy, that green was scary and they would attack me due to my conqueror affiliation, but I had to remind myself that this was a new start, and that I didn't have to fight these people.
"I think I'd like to go to my room" I declare somewhat quietly, looking towards the ground. I wanted to work my way up to meeting new people, and I don't think being surrounded by so many green cloaks would be good for me or Mavi, who was currently standing very close to my legs, his flank against my leg.
(whether Harothe knows about Ceto's past or not is up to you, whatever you think would make the more interesting story I guess)
"I don't think we need to bring anything else, but if anything catches your eye and set traps if you want. Whatever floats your boat." Asher says, taking a moment to grab a satchel.
Around the house, there are a few odds and ends(a chest, a couple of books, an unfinished meal, etc.).
Outside, the counter has gotten to, "Three"
(Still accepted thank you.)
Ashia smirks as she works making traps that would definitly slow them down and then some. She grabs the odds and ends using them to create a jumping chest that would eat the conquerors. After finishing she and Scarlet bolt.

"Of course. This place may take a bit of getting used to. It's big and easy to get lost in." He says before noticing Mavi's actions. "Hey, there's nothing to fear. I'll lead you to your room and can even be your 'personal bodyguard' for a few days if you need."
He holds out his elbow for Ceto to hold on to, a - possibly - silly tradition from some time before. "M'lady." He says, with a smile.
"Anything I can get you after you are secure in your room and feel like you can do without me - though I doubt you ever will," he teases her with the last statement.
(How about he doesn't exactly, but understands that something has happened in Ceto's life enough to make her wary of greencloaks.)

(Sounds like a perfect balance)
Ceto Arethusa
I apprehensively reached out to put a single hand gently on the older mans elbow, Mavi didnt seem entirely trustful, so he slowly climbed up Cetos back. He was a little heavy for her, as he was 6 feet long, but she could handle his weight well enough.
*ill be fine Ceto said gently. *I think I just need some time to adjust* She said, getting slightly embarrassed by the teasing.

Asher runs next to her, his spirit animal currently in passive state. His brother was somewhere ahead. Behind you, you hear the counter get to Five and the surprise you left them goes off.
Have experience with traps and running away from Conquerors or something? Asher teases her, following a path that would otherwise be obscured from sight, had he not shown it to you.
Jake comes into sight, saying, I am going to go in a different direction to throw them off your scent, or at least try to set them back further. You two kids got it?

Harothe nods in understanding. "Of course." He says, and the trip to your room is mostly silent. When they get to a seemingly meaningless door, Harothe turns and opens the door.
You find your bedroom is brightly lit via a large window that not only has a window seat and lowerable curtains, but also faces the world below. The bed is stuffed in the corner nearest the window, a chair and table on the opposite wall, and a set of drawers were next to the door.
"Not much, but customize your room how you want. Stay safe. I'll bring you something to eat. Or I'll send someone else to give it to you." He beams. "Thanks for coming and joining us. You'll love it here."
"Anything else before I go?" He asks, waiting.

"In my opion let me take them in another direction," Ashia insists, "I've been fighting the Conquorers since before the Greencloaks knew about them. Please give me a chance. I'll meet up with you two name the place."

Asher and Jake exchange a glance, but Asher nods, making Jake sigh in reluctance.
"Okay. But stay safe. We can meet up at the Great Bear Inn?" Jake suggests. Asher smiles at Ashia.
"And good luck." Asher says with a smile.

*N...No thank you...* I say, giving him a grateful smile as I wander over to the bed. Mavi ran ahead of me, jumping into the comfortable bed excitedly.
*I think Im going to head down later... maybe... meeting people my age again might be nice... I just dont think Im ready... especially so many people at once* I put my bag down on top of the desk. *Am I going to be on a team? Maybe... if it isnt too much to ask... maybe I could meet my team? I think meeting only a few people could help me adjust a little* I say nervously
