Ella looked up at Elyan
"I guess I'm as read as I'll ever be"
she sighed then looked back up at the ceiling
"I just hope we are all strong enough to take on the king. We not only have to go up against him but will probably have to go against his entire army"
she looked back at Elyan and smiled
"I just want to see the king destroyed for what he did to this world"

Elyan chuckled at what Ella said.
"I'm with you there. The king will need twice as many soldiers if he even wants to slow us down."
He looked over when he saw a stranger enter the cave. When she asked if she could stay, Elyan waved dismissively.
"No objections here. But, you know, you'd look a little less suspicious if you at least gave us your name."

Ella looked over at the woman
"It depends"
ella's eyes started glowing
"Are you with or against the king?"
she didnt want to take any chances and was ready to attack if needed

Aizengard looked at the woman who entered the cave and scoffed at what Elyan said.
"I see so it's okay with you if someone we don't know stays here but when I ask to check to see if my daughter is all right I get an arrow in my face." Aizengard looked to Elyan. "I'm with Ella. She could be a spy."

Ella rested her head back against the wall
"That may be but not all spies attack first hand"
she closed her eyes and when she opened them the glow was gone
"Ella, and i will take your word that you against the king. I dont think one spy could go against all of us"
she motioned to everyone in the cave

Annoyance came to Aizengard's face and he got up. "Are we really gonna trust her word here!? I'm sorry but that's a stupid idea. What's to stop her from slitting our throats while we sleep!? You all know what the king is capable! You all saw what he-" Aizengard closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He grabbed his weapons and became to walk out of the cave. "I'll keep watch just in case. It's not like I'm sleeping tonight anyway." Saying that he left the cave.

Elyan sat up and turned towards Valeria.
"Don't mind him. He's...had a rough day. I'm Elyan, and I've still got enough sense to realize that if you really were a spy, we wouldn't be having this conversation."
He lied back down to go to sleep.
"Now, unless someone else wants to say something paranoid, I'm going to sleep. If you think I'm cranky now, you should see me without my beauty rest."

OOT gonna move this along as i said i would.


Before the sun rose Ella had woken up. She looked around noticing everyone else was still asleep. She had tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep to well. This wasn't new to her since the attack. She decided to let everyone sleep a little longer and decided to take step out for some fresh air. She quietly got up and walked out of the cave pulling the hood of her cloak up over her head. She cautiously walked into the woods until she found a small stream and stopped just at the edge of it.
"At least there are still a few things that havent been corrupted by the king"
she said quietly to herself. The sun started to peek over the horizon

Aizengard didn't sleep that night. He just sat outside waiting for day come. He noticed Ella walk out of the cave and decided to follow after her. "Hey. I wanted to say I was sorry about what happened yesterday. I over reacted."

Elyan slowly woke up from all the movement going on around him. When he was fully awake, he got up and went outside to see what was going on. The first person he met was Valeria.
"Morning. Seeing as how we're all still alive, I guess you're alright after all. But, really...don't worry about what Ella and Aizen said. We're all a little on edge. Being hunted by the king for a while can do that to people."
He leaned against the cave entrance and spoke in a more casual tone.
"So, what's your story? You obviously weren't just out for a late-night stroll if you needed to crawl into a cave for the night, so...what, do you need directions to the nearest town?"

Mathuriel woke up while all this talking was going on, and laid there on the ground for about a minute and a half murmuring "Ow" over and over again.
"I feel like I got run over by a cart."
He got up.
"Did I miss anything?"

Ella looked up at Aizen then looked back at the sun
"Its fine, we cant be too safe"
she smiled as the sun hit her face
"I think everything the king has done to all of us has given us a tough shell, Its gotten to the point where you dont know who you can trust. Anyone can be a spy of the king you did the right thing."
She looked back in the direction of the cave
"I dont think she will cause us any harm. but if she did i think we can all handle it"
she looked back at aizen
"We better get back and start heading out if we want to go after the king today"

Zenith stretched as she exited the cave. She looked at Valeria, then turned to Serena.
"I've learned it's better not to ask."

Elyan couldn't help but give a slight smirk.
"Well, hopefully that shouldn't be a problem for much longer. Rumor has it there's going to be a...sudden political shift coming to the throne in the next few days."
He stood back up straight and started to walk back into the cave.
"Don't mind me, I've already said too much. If you need anything, just give me a shout."

Mathuriel decided to just sidle out to Ella.
"How you doing this morning?" he asked, looking at the sunlight creeping over the horizon.
"Ready to end this?"

Ella heard Mathuriels voice then turned to him
" Good morning"
she smiled
"I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be"
she looked over towards Aizen
"I was just telling Aizen here we should get the others up and get moving, The sooner the better"

Aizengard laughed a bit. "Well I could always go wake them up. Just as Mathurial and Elyan, my method seems to work pretty well." Saying that he laughed.

"Yes, I would very much so appreciate you guiding me back to them. I understand this reunion didn't go as you anticipated, but as I said, we are 2 complete strangers. We can get to know each other on the way to them. If you really believe i'm your brother. I dont see why I cannot humor you. A part of me wants to believe it is true. but another part completely tells me it is a lie. It was harsh, but. If we can get to Mathuriel, Ella, and the bunch. we have a chance of talking 'catching up' and viewing perspectives."

Carlyle didn't say much after that, all he really did was follow Allora waiting for her to strike up conversation. He had no idea what to say to her, So he just didn't say much of anything. He also didn't want to feel like he hated her or resented her in anyway.

Ella looked at Aizen
"If you wouldn't mind we need to get a move on, the sooner the better"
she looked back at the horizon
"Well today is the day"
she sighed
"Its now or never"

Allora was quiet for a moment as they followed spirit
"So how did you get captured?"
she looked back at him
"Your lucky im a good shot or you wouldnt be standing here"
she looked ahead of them
"I practiced a lot to become a good shot"
