K'ailia Yohko: hi guys!
K'ailia Yohko: Hmm they asleep?
K'haali Thalen bows theatrically. "I come bearing the gifts of the north!" before noticing they've dozed off
K'haali Thalen: Huh...
K'ailia Yohko: hehe I gots idea!
K'luha Haaz is completely dead asleep, still exhausted and looking a little bit like shit. Mostly notable was the dried blood, the tip of he right ear missing, claw marks on her shoulders, and a large chuck bitten out of her right left.
K'haali Thalen: Does it involve drawing, because, i have a stick of charcoal...
K'ile Twinflame is like all that except less wounded. All he has is a severely bruised chest. He must just be a wuss.
K'ailia Yohko begins moving her arms in motion as magic begins playing across her hands, and above... a glob of water forms...
K'luha Haaz would like to point out that K'ile is totally a wuss.
K'ailia Yohko stops the spell and the water crashes down on the two sleepyheads.
K'haali Thalen: I'd like to make it formally known I have no part in this plan of yours... and i object, but won't stop you
K'luha Haaz forgot to mention her head is wrapped up with K'ile's scarf, as she also has a head injury.
K'ailia Yohko laughs.
K'haali Thalen looks at K'ailia Yohko and panics!
K'haali Thalen pokes you.
K'haali Thalen gives a concerned look at K'ailia
K'ailia Yohko: Oi... what's wrong with em?
K'ile Twinflame stirs slughishly out of the water. Luckily he doesn't assosciate being splashed with water with being attacked or he would've reacted differently. Actually, he barely even wakes up, just muttering groggily.
K'haali Thalen shrugs at K'ailia Yohko.
K'ailia Yohko: Oi oi K'ile?
K'ailia Yohko: Ma?
K'luha Haaz squeaked loudly at the sudden freezing cold water being poured onto her. Her ears suddenly went alert , and her tail frazzled, but she had already learned her lesson about jumping and flailing. She was still too tired to do that yet. K'luha blinked a few times, still groggy herself and looked around. "The fuck...?"
K'haali Thalen points incriminatingly at K'ailia
K'ailia Yohko: Oh hi ma. Glad yer awake
K'ailia Yohko laughs.
K'luha Haaz slowly looks to K'ailia for a moment before scowling. "Very cute." she scoffed.
K'luha Haaz is annoyed with K'ailia Yohko.
K'ailia Yohko: Haali ya realize, I jes gave K'ile his bath
K'ile Twinflame mutters, "Don't need a fuckin..."
K'ailia Yohko: What happened ta you two?
K'luha Haaz lightly pulled at K'ile's ear. "Oiy. Wake up."
K'ile Twinflame pushes K'luuha off of him and rolls away from her, managing to his feet groggily, "Why are you women always bugging me?"
K'ailia Yohko: So... yer scoutin' mission seemed ta suggest maybe I should o' went with you two.
K'luha Haaz gave a loud 'oof' as she was pushed off of K'ile and onto her stomach. She grumbled, but didn't move quite yet. "Idiot."
K'haali Thalen: It was something that worried me while you were away; you wouldn't have access to treatment if you had to fight...
K'ile Twinflame mutters a general 'bleh' K'luha, then looked over at K'ailia, "You don't listen to anything, do you? We haven't done any scouting yet. Just heal your mom, okay?"
K'luha Haaz: Says Mister broken ass ribs. Go heal him first.
K'ailia Yohko: yes ma.
K'haali Thalen: You always were fond of tossing coins
K'ailia Yohko: bah! I am gonna hit ya both!
K'luha Haaz whips her tail back at K'ile, smacking his leg.
K'ailia Yohko begins channeling Medica II
K'ile Twinflame crosses his arms over his chest, "Your mom has a head injury. I'm fine until she's healed. Don't let her bully you."
K'haali Thalen ducks
K'ailia Yohko: That spell should help the more serious wounds.
K'ailia Yohko: But still gonna need ta rest.
K'luha Haaz blinks at the sudden and somewhat disturbing healing of wounds. After a few moments she legs to her leg, which is good as new. She carefully got to her feet and stretched.
K'luha Haaz stretches.
K'ailia Yohko: Anyways ma... got a question fer ya.
K'luha Haaz: What is it?
K'ailia Yohko: Do ya' know who a K'makanee Haaz is?
K'luha Haaz looks at K'ailia Yohko in shock!
K'luha Haaz: I... do.
K'ailia Yohko: So was she part o' our tribe?
K'luha Haaz nods to K'ailia Yohko.
K'luha Haaz: She was...
K'haali Thalen fetches a roll of fresh linen gauze from K'weh's bags and hands it to k'ailia
K'ailia Yohko: Alright... well... I got a letter from Gridania taday.
K'luha Haaz quirks a brow, wondering what a Gridanian letter has to do with it. "Is K'makanee in Gridania then?"
K'ailia Yohko: Seems they want ta give her daughter ta us.
K'luha Haaz looked quizzically at K'ailia and tilted her head. "Why would K'makanee want to give her daughter to us?"
K'ile Twinflame looks suspicious, "What does that mean?"
K'ailia Yohko: The letter dinna say it was from her. Jes from some matron in Gridania.
K'luha Haaz gazes upon K'ailia Yohko in deep reflection.
K'luha Haaz: Some matron? Why would some Matron have K'makanee's child... unless?
K'ile Twinflame: Matron? What's that?
K'haali Thalen gives a sad shrug
K'ailia Yohko: Dunno, very vague letter.
K'luha Haaz: There's no way K'makanee would ever give someone her daughter... she must have died....
K'ailia Yohko: So... should I go get the kid?
K'ailia Yohko: I know my way around the shroud better than yall
K'ile Twinflame says sternly, "No, K'ailia. You should not."
K'ailia Yohko: a-alright...
K'luha Haaz looks sadly at the floor, her ears flattening to her head. "So then... she did have that child? I thought for sure she would miscarry because of the fight..." K'luha shook her head and looked to K'ile. "Since she was exiled, is her child exiled as well?"
K'haali Thalen: It seems unlikely she'd raise her child to follow the tribe's customs if she was exiled. No doubt the Gridanians are simply looking at the closest family she has
K'ile Twinflame turns a frazzled gaze an K'luha as though she said something unthinkable, "What? That...! I don't. Hey, I'm not assuming Maka is dead."
K'ailia Yohko: But... if she is dead, maybe we can mold her daughter ta our ways?
K'ailia Yohko: We'd get at least, another huntress ta assist in huntin'
K'ile Twinflame scoffs at K'ailia, "We can't even mold you to our ways."
K'luha Haaz frowned and shook her head. "Maka is my sister, remember? I know her. She would have never given her child up. And she would have never offered to give her child to us if she was alive."
K'ailia Yohko: Who says I've forsaken our ways K'ile.
K'luha Haaz: Well, you parcially have.
K'ile Twinflame throws his hands in the air, "By the Matron can we not have that conversation right now!"
K'haali Thalen hangs on to one of K'wehs reigns and leans into his breast for support while observinging the exchange
K'ailia Yohko: Hmm... well... maybe the elders will know how ta address this letter.
K'luha Haaz winced a little and looked down to the ground again. Thinking for a moment she sighed. "We're going to have to deal with it eventually K'ile...."
K'ailia Yohko seems lost in thought.
K'ile Twinflame shakes his head, "No, Ka'ilia's right. It's not up to us what to do with the girl. That's all on the elders. They'll decide what to do about it and who should take care of it."
K'ailia Yohko: Mister K'ile... if it will make ya' happy.. if the tribe moves here. I will give myself over ta whatever ya wish ta teach me.
K'ailia Yohko: Ya' can mold me however ya want.
K'ile Twinflame frowns, "I'd have you breed, so don't make that promise."
K'luha Haaz nodded faintly in agreement. The elders would have to decide that girl's fate for now. "In other news... there's plenty of game here." K'luha quickly changed the subject, not wanting to linger.
K'ailia Yohko 's jaw drops
K'ile Twinflame hops on K'luha's bandwagon by turning to K'haali, "How'd your evening go?"
K'ailia Yohko looks shocked.
K'haali Thalen seems to recover from his breeding talk. "Well... as a change of pace from everyone else's day; fantastic"
K'ailia Yohko: Yeaaaah.... takin' that offer back. Anyways, I really like this place.
K'luha Haaz: Oh?
K'ailia Yohko: I definitely think it is perfect for our needs.
K'haali Thalen opens K'weh's panniers to reveal a bounty of fauna, some evidentlly edible, some of questionable use.
K'haali Thalen: "I think this is corn isn't it?"
K'haali Thalen: There's fields upon fields at the base of the hills to the north
K'luha Haaz peered over at the bag. "Wow..."
K'ailia Yohko looks it over.
K'ile Twinflame: That's edible?
K'luha Haaz shrugs at you.
K'ailia Yohko: Yeah that definitely is corn!
K'ailia Yohko: It is very good food.
K'ailia Yohko: We jes have ta cook it first, an season it.
K'ailia Yohko holds her hand out for the corn.
K'ile Twinflame puts a fist on his hip, "Medicine plants in there too?"
K'haali Thalen opening another satchel she pulls out a creamy-white crystal. "And, this is alumen salts isn't it?"
K'haali Thalen: I recognise it from the sagolii, but there's loads of it in the hills to the north.
K'ailia Yohko: Hmm... why it look more like a crystal though?
K'haali Thalen: Which is good, because we sued it to treat sandwurm hide, havign a supply close to hand will be useful.
K'haali Thalen shrugs. "Richer supply I guess"
K'ailia Yohko: Ya' sure it aint jes a crystal?
K'haali Thalen: Well, that's why I wanted your opinion, I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff we used tio treat the wurm hides. But i might be wrong
K'ile Twinflame: Why don't you try taking it to the markets near here and see if someone there is interested in it? If it seels like salt, that's what it is.
K'haali Thalen: That's a rather good idea... unless, they also assume it's salt incorrectly
K'ailia Yohko: Hehe if it be salt, there be two places I know that could tell ya' fer sure.
K'luha Haaz seems lost in thought.
K'ailia Yohko: The botanist guild in Gridania, or the culinary guild in Limsa Lominsa.
K'haali Thalen: We could just take an aldgoat rawhide and try treatting it, see what happens.
K'ailia Yohko: Oh that's not a bad idea!
K'ailia Yohko: Want me ta help ya take one down?
K'haali Thalen: If it tans it, it's good enoguh for the job, even if it's not the salt I thought it wasÂ
K'haali Thalen: That depends if everyone feels like aldgoat tonight
K'ailia Yohko: Oh yeah an' mister K'ile, Ventus said he will see ya when he finishes some business o' his.
K'luha Haaz: When would that be?
K'ailia Yohko: Today.
K'ailia Yohko: His business apparently is eatin' a good meal an' takenin a bath.
K'ile Twinflame frowns at K'ailia. "He better be coming here, then. I've business of my own."
K'ailia Yohko: Oh aye, told him ta come ta drybone.
K'luha Haaz: K'ile should we delay to see him until we have scouted, or should we head to Ul'dah this evening first?
K'haali Thalen: Well, I'm content from what I've already seen, that this place is a veritable paradise!. And no doubt we'll discover more once we settle in.
K'ile Twinflame: No. He can come here and we'll ask him what his lands have toffer that this place doesn't. If he can't answer well, we can just take him out and throw his body in a ravine. Nobody will ever know.
K'luha Haaz laughs at you.
K'haali Thalen bursts out laughing at you.
K'ailia Yohko: Hey! No need ta kill him!
K'ailia Yohko: But, maybe instead o' takin' his offer.
K'ailia Yohko: Maybe we can hire him ta help the tribe get past the amalj'aa canyon
K'ile Twinflame: No. I prefer killing him.
K'ailia Yohko is annoyed with you.
K'luha Haaz: K'ile, K'ailia. Play nice.
You smirk confidently at K'ailia Yohko.
K'haali Thalen gives an impish grin at K'ailia. "I've always wondered what a hyur-leather saddle would feel like.
K'luha Haaz: Everyone has to place nice with the Hyur man.
K'haali Thalen wallows in self-pity.
K'ile Twinflame: You're joking.
K'ailia Yohko: But like I said, we could prolly use protection gettin' past them Amalj'aa
K'luha Haaz raises a brow at K'ile. "Do I look like I'm joking?"
K'ile Twinflame squints at K'luha. "... Yes."
K'haali Thalen: If nothing else, their stomping about would serve as an admirable distraction from the tribesfolk
K'luha Haaz reaches forward and pinches K'ile's cheek. "No, you have to play nice. He's K'ailia's teacher."
K'ailia Yohko beams with delight at K'luha Haaz.
K'ile Twinflame smacks K'luha's hand away, "Strange coming from you."
K'luha Haaz smirked faintly and dropped her hands back to her hips. "I already had a discussion with him. So we can play nice for now."
K'ile Twinflame: Hey, you're not the only one who has a right to bloody someone's lip.
K'ailia Yohko: Aaaan' I will be over there. Yeah...
K'luha Haaz: I didn't say I was. In any case, should we meet with Ventus tonight or later?
K'ile Twinflame: Hey!
K'ile Twinflame mutters to K'luha, "We'll meet him today if he's coming out here," and then to K'ailia, "We're still talking. Don't just run off."
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'luha Haaz gazes upon K'ailia Yohko in deep reflection.
K'luha Haaz: I think she's taking after me in terms of running off.
K'ailia Yohko laughs.
K'haali Thalen: Oh!. I almost forgot I also found these; they're fungi I think, but some fungi are edible... I'm wondering maybe someone could identify them.
K'haali Thalen presents a mixture of fungi, some rock lichens but also truffles and button mushrooms.
K'luha Haaz: We could perhaps get them checked out in Drybone?
K'ile Twinflame: There should be healers or shaman there who know.
K'ailia Yohko: Actually, there's a merchant that sells that kind o' stuff over at the bridge.
K'haali Thalen nods
K'luha Haaz: Then we could just go look at his wares and discern what they are for ourselves.
K'ailia Yohko nods.
K'haali Thalen: maybe I should just start digging up every likely looking object and have you run them by the merchants at highbridge K'ailia
K'haali Thalen bursts out laughing at K'ailia Yohko.
K'haali Thalen: Distribution of labour
K'luha Haaz smirks confidently at K'ailia Yohko.
K'luha Haaz: All yours then K'ailia.
K'ailia Yohko: Alright.
K'ile Twinflame: Alright, so let's do it this way...
K'ailia Yohko pulls out a little black box and presses a button.
K'ailia Yohko: Shall we?
((Garlean mechasuit appears))
K'haali Thalen takes the panniers off K'weh and drapes them over K'ailia's shoulders; they weigh a fair bit.
K'ailia Yohko: No problem, I be back soon!
((K'ailia disappears))
K'ile Twinflame was about to speak, but then, "Did K'ailia just run off again?"
K'ile Twinflame: Idiot girl.
K'luha Haaz laughs at you.
K'luha Haaz: Sorry, she takes after me.
K'ile Twinflame: Now we have to change our plans.
K'ile Twinflame looks over at K'haali, "Did she take the salts too?"
K'haali Thalen nods. "She also took a few other things they might find interesting to look over... she also took my medical supplies and lunch, I didn't expect her to actually take the panniers, they were rather heavy..."
K'ile Twinflame: Yes, well, she doesn't listen well.
K'ile Twinflame looks at K'luha, "Are you too injured to hunt down an Aldgoat on your own? They can get mean."
K'luha Haaz sighed and frowned. "I have to drop by Drybone first. I lost my bow last night."
K'ile Twinflame: Same. I guess we're together in that. Do we have money?
K'luha Haaz nodded yes and pulled out a small sack of coins from her boot. She kind of kept a lot of stuff in her boots. "Enough for a LANCE and a bow."
K'ile Twinflame: That's fine. I guess we'll just buy our food and weapons tonight and head south once we're ready.
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'ile Twinflame: K'haali, what's your plan?
K'haali Thalen: i guess i hadn't thought that far ahead. I was going to wait to see what you did, I presume we'll be meeting the gentlemen from that university soon, and then going back to the tribe?
K'luha Haaz: Yes, that's about right.
K'ile Twinflame: I'm meeting the Hyur and then K'luha and I will be heading south for a couple of days to scout the Amal'jaa camp.
K'ile Twinflame: Someone needs to let the Elders know about that child K'ailia mentioned.
K'luha Haaz: You're going to meet with Ventus on your own first?
K'ile Twinflame: Probably. You just pick out a nice big lance for me and we'll meet up in Drybone to eat.
K'haali Thalen: I could begin the journey to report in the the elders now; or might it be wiser to wait til after we meet Ventus so I can tell them how that went, if I go now they'll only know about the potential settlement site
K'haali Thalen: Interesting, but not that useful without the full picture
K'luha Haaz nodded to K'ile. "Alright. Do you want me to help you use the Aehteryte to get there and to Drybone?" she questioned before looking back to K'haali. "It's up to you really K'haali. Could you make it back on your own?"
K'ile Twinflame thinks, "There's no point telling the Elders about the migration sites until we've at least scouted out the Amal'jaa camp. I don't like leaving the matter with the kid alone, though."
K'haali Thalen: I believe so; a few days south of here takes you through broken water, and the little al mhigan mesas. After that it's familiar territory, the red labyrinth to avoid the amal'ja patrols
K'haali Thalen: However, as you say, leaving too soon seems like a wasted journey
K'ile Twinflame: You can keep harvesting things. It might be faster to just wait for K'luha and I to be done scouting and send her back through the aetherytes.
K'haali Thalen shrugs. "I'll just make myself useful here for now, and stand by to travel back to the tribe when you need me to"
K'luha Haaz nods to K'haali Thalen.
K'luha Haaz: Thank you K'haali.
K'ile Twinflame: Is using aetherytes something a person can help with?
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'ile Twinflame: Huh. That's... Okay, if you say so.
K'haali Thalen looks at the sun. "I'll prepare to make camp for myself  then."
K'luha Haaz: I can bring people along with me through Aetheryte travel. But... I would only do so once with either you at K'haali as it will pretty much exhaust your supply of aether for a long time."
K'ile Twinflame: I'm not even using my aether.
K'luha Haaz: That's probably a good idea. We should go K'ile."
K'ile Twinflame watches K'haali walk off, "Okay, bye."
K'ile Twinflame: Yes, fine. No reason to tarry.
K'luha Haaz: So how do you plan to meet with Ventus? Have him come out here?
K'ile Twinflame: That's what K'ailia said she told him to do. I assume she'll turn up when he does.
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'luha Haaz: We should start walking then. And avoid any wolves.
K'luha Haaz: Although, we could also the the Aetheryte there.
K'ile Twinflame: I'd assumed we would. I don't need you tiring out your leg before we head out south.
K'luha Haaz scoffed lightly before bringing her hand forward. "Alright, take my hands then."
K'ile Twinflame awkwardly grabs K'luha's hands, "Why does magic have to be so touchy?"
K'luha Haaz rolls her eyes lightly and squeezes K'ile's hand. "Hold on tight and don't let go, lest you be lost in the Aetherways forever."
K'ailia Yohko: Hmm they asleep?
K'haali Thalen bows theatrically. "I come bearing the gifts of the north!" before noticing they've dozed off
K'haali Thalen: Huh...
K'ailia Yohko: hehe I gots idea!

K'ile Twinflame shakes his head, "No, Ka'ilia's right. It's not up to us what to do with the girl. That's all on the elders. They'll decide what to do about it and who should take care of it."
K'ailia Yohko: Mister K'ile... if it will make ya' happy.. if the tribe moves here. I will give myself over ta whatever ya wish ta teach me.
K'ailia Yohko: Ya' can mold me however ya want.
K'ile Twinflame frowns, "I'd have you breed, so don't make that promise."
K'luha Haaz nodded faintly in agreement. The elders would have to decide that girl's fate for now. "In other news... there's plenty of game here." K'luha quickly changed the subject, not wanting to linger.
K'ailia Yohko 's jaw drops
K'ile Twinflame hops on K'luha's bandwagon by turning to K'haali, "How'd your evening go?"
K'ailia Yohko looks shocked.
K'haali Thalen seems to recover from his breeding talk. "Well... as a change of pace from everyone else's day; fantastic"
K'ailia Yohko: Yeaaaah.... takin' that offer back. Anyways, I really like this place.
K'luha Haaz: Oh?
K'ailia Yohko: I definitely think it is perfect for our needs.
K'haali Thalen opens K'weh's panniers to reveal a bounty of fauna, some evidentlly edible, some of questionable use.
K'haali Thalen: "I think this is corn isn't it?"
K'haali Thalen: There's fields upon fields at the base of the hills to the north
K'luha Haaz peered over at the bag. "Wow..."
K'ailia Yohko looks it over.
K'ile Twinflame: That's edible?
K'luha Haaz shrugs at you.
K'ailia Yohko: Yeah that definitely is corn!
K'ailia Yohko: It is very good food.
K'ailia Yohko: We jes have ta cook it first, an season it.
K'ailia Yohko holds her hand out for the corn.
K'ile Twinflame puts a fist on his hip, "Medicine plants in there too?"
K'haali Thalen opening another satchel she pulls out a creamy-white crystal. "And, this is alumen salts isn't it?"
K'haali Thalen: I recognise it from the sagolii, but there's loads of it in the hills to the north.
K'ailia Yohko: Hmm... why it look more like a crystal though?
K'haali Thalen: Which is good, because we sued it to treat sandwurm hide, havign a supply close to hand will be useful.
K'haali Thalen shrugs. "Richer supply I guess"
K'ailia Yohko: Ya' sure it aint jes a crystal?
K'haali Thalen: Well, that's why I wanted your opinion, I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff we used tio treat the wurm hides. But i might be wrong
K'ile Twinflame: Why don't you try taking it to the markets near here and see if someone there is interested in it? If it seels like salt, that's what it is.
K'haali Thalen: That's a rather good idea... unless, they also assume it's salt incorrectly
K'ailia Yohko: Hehe if it be salt, there be two places I know that could tell ya' fer sure.
K'luha Haaz seems lost in thought.
K'ailia Yohko: The botanist guild in Gridania, or the culinary guild in Limsa Lominsa.
K'haali Thalen: We could just take an aldgoat rawhide and try treatting it, see what happens.
K'ailia Yohko: Oh that's not a bad idea!
K'ailia Yohko: Want me ta help ya take one down?
K'haali Thalen: If it tans it, it's good enoguh for the job, even if it's not the salt I thought it wasÂ
K'haali Thalen: That depends if everyone feels like aldgoat tonight
K'ailia Yohko: Oh yeah an' mister K'ile, Ventus said he will see ya when he finishes some business o' his.
K'luha Haaz: When would that be?
K'ailia Yohko: Today.
K'ailia Yohko: His business apparently is eatin' a good meal an' takenin a bath.
K'ile Twinflame frowns at K'ailia. "He better be coming here, then. I've business of my own."
K'ailia Yohko: Oh aye, told him ta come ta drybone.
K'luha Haaz: K'ile should we delay to see him until we have scouted, or should we head to Ul'dah this evening first?
K'haali Thalen: Well, I'm content from what I've already seen, that this place is a veritable paradise!. And no doubt we'll discover more once we settle in.
K'ile Twinflame: No. He can come here and we'll ask him what his lands have toffer that this place doesn't. If he can't answer well, we can just take him out and throw his body in a ravine. Nobody will ever know.
K'luha Haaz laughs at you.
K'haali Thalen bursts out laughing at you.
K'ailia Yohko: Hey! No need ta kill him!
K'ailia Yohko: But, maybe instead o' takin' his offer.
K'ailia Yohko: Maybe we can hire him ta help the tribe get past the amalj'aa canyon
K'ile Twinflame: No. I prefer killing him.
K'ailia Yohko is annoyed with you.
K'luha Haaz: K'ile, K'ailia. Play nice.
You smirk confidently at K'ailia Yohko.
K'haali Thalen gives an impish grin at K'ailia. "I've always wondered what a hyur-leather saddle would feel like.
K'luha Haaz: Everyone has to place nice with the Hyur man.
K'haali Thalen wallows in self-pity.
K'ile Twinflame: You're joking.
K'ailia Yohko: But like I said, we could prolly use protection gettin' past them Amalj'aa
K'luha Haaz raises a brow at K'ile. "Do I look like I'm joking?"
K'ile Twinflame squints at K'luha. "... Yes."
K'haali Thalen: If nothing else, their stomping about would serve as an admirable distraction from the tribesfolk
K'luha Haaz reaches forward and pinches K'ile's cheek. "No, you have to play nice. He's K'ailia's teacher."
K'ailia Yohko beams with delight at K'luha Haaz.
K'ile Twinflame smacks K'luha's hand away, "Strange coming from you."
K'luha Haaz smirked faintly and dropped her hands back to her hips. "I already had a discussion with him. So we can play nice for now."
K'ile Twinflame: Hey, you're not the only one who has a right to bloody someone's lip.
K'ailia Yohko: Aaaan' I will be over there. Yeah...
K'luha Haaz: I didn't say I was. In any case, should we meet with Ventus tonight or later?
K'ile Twinflame: Hey!
K'ile Twinflame mutters to K'luha, "We'll meet him today if he's coming out here," and then to K'ailia, "We're still talking. Don't just run off."
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'luha Haaz gazes upon K'ailia Yohko in deep reflection.
K'luha Haaz: I think she's taking after me in terms of running off.
K'ailia Yohko laughs.
K'haali Thalen: Oh!. I almost forgot I also found these; they're fungi I think, but some fungi are edible... I'm wondering maybe someone could identify them.
K'haali Thalen presents a mixture of fungi, some rock lichens but also truffles and button mushrooms.
K'luha Haaz: We could perhaps get them checked out in Drybone?
K'ile Twinflame: There should be healers or shaman there who know.
K'ailia Yohko: Actually, there's a merchant that sells that kind o' stuff over at the bridge.
K'haali Thalen nods
K'luha Haaz: Then we could just go look at his wares and discern what they are for ourselves.
K'ailia Yohko nods.
K'haali Thalen: maybe I should just start digging up every likely looking object and have you run them by the merchants at highbridge K'ailia
K'haali Thalen bursts out laughing at K'ailia Yohko.
K'haali Thalen: Distribution of labour
K'luha Haaz smirks confidently at K'ailia Yohko.
K'luha Haaz: All yours then K'ailia.
K'ailia Yohko: Alright.
K'ile Twinflame: Alright, so let's do it this way...
K'ailia Yohko pulls out a little black box and presses a button.
K'ailia Yohko: Shall we?
((Garlean mechasuit appears))
K'haali Thalen takes the panniers off K'weh and drapes them over K'ailia's shoulders; they weigh a fair bit.
K'ailia Yohko: No problem, I be back soon!
((K'ailia disappears))
K'ile Twinflame was about to speak, but then, "Did K'ailia just run off again?"
K'ile Twinflame: Idiot girl.
K'luha Haaz laughs at you.
K'luha Haaz: Sorry, she takes after me.
K'ile Twinflame: Now we have to change our plans.
K'ile Twinflame looks over at K'haali, "Did she take the salts too?"
K'haali Thalen nods. "She also took a few other things they might find interesting to look over... she also took my medical supplies and lunch, I didn't expect her to actually take the panniers, they were rather heavy..."
K'ile Twinflame: Yes, well, she doesn't listen well.
K'ile Twinflame looks at K'luha, "Are you too injured to hunt down an Aldgoat on your own? They can get mean."
K'luha Haaz sighed and frowned. "I have to drop by Drybone first. I lost my bow last night."
K'ile Twinflame: Same. I guess we're together in that. Do we have money?
K'luha Haaz nodded yes and pulled out a small sack of coins from her boot. She kind of kept a lot of stuff in her boots. "Enough for a LANCE and a bow."
K'ile Twinflame: That's fine. I guess we'll just buy our food and weapons tonight and head south once we're ready.
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'ile Twinflame: K'haali, what's your plan?
K'haali Thalen: i guess i hadn't thought that far ahead. I was going to wait to see what you did, I presume we'll be meeting the gentlemen from that university soon, and then going back to the tribe?
K'luha Haaz: Yes, that's about right.
K'ile Twinflame: I'm meeting the Hyur and then K'luha and I will be heading south for a couple of days to scout the Amal'jaa camp.
K'ile Twinflame: Someone needs to let the Elders know about that child K'ailia mentioned.
K'luha Haaz: You're going to meet with Ventus on your own first?
K'ile Twinflame: Probably. You just pick out a nice big lance for me and we'll meet up in Drybone to eat.
K'haali Thalen: I could begin the journey to report in the the elders now; or might it be wiser to wait til after we meet Ventus so I can tell them how that went, if I go now they'll only know about the potential settlement site
K'haali Thalen: Interesting, but not that useful without the full picture
K'luha Haaz nodded to K'ile. "Alright. Do you want me to help you use the Aehteryte to get there and to Drybone?" she questioned before looking back to K'haali. "It's up to you really K'haali. Could you make it back on your own?"
K'ile Twinflame thinks, "There's no point telling the Elders about the migration sites until we've at least scouted out the Amal'jaa camp. I don't like leaving the matter with the kid alone, though."
K'haali Thalen: I believe so; a few days south of here takes you through broken water, and the little al mhigan mesas. After that it's familiar territory, the red labyrinth to avoid the amal'ja patrols
K'haali Thalen: However, as you say, leaving too soon seems like a wasted journey
K'ile Twinflame: You can keep harvesting things. It might be faster to just wait for K'luha and I to be done scouting and send her back through the aetherytes.
K'haali Thalen shrugs. "I'll just make myself useful here for now, and stand by to travel back to the tribe when you need me to"
K'luha Haaz nods to K'haali Thalen.
K'luha Haaz: Thank you K'haali.
K'ile Twinflame: Is using aetherytes something a person can help with?
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'ile Twinflame: Huh. That's... Okay, if you say so.
K'haali Thalen looks at the sun. "I'll prepare to make camp for myself  then."
K'luha Haaz: I can bring people along with me through Aetheryte travel. But... I would only do so once with either you at K'haali as it will pretty much exhaust your supply of aether for a long time."
K'ile Twinflame: I'm not even using my aether.
K'luha Haaz: That's probably a good idea. We should go K'ile."
K'ile Twinflame watches K'haali walk off, "Okay, bye."
K'ile Twinflame: Yes, fine. No reason to tarry.
K'luha Haaz: So how do you plan to meet with Ventus? Have him come out here?
K'ile Twinflame: That's what K'ailia said she told him to do. I assume she'll turn up when he does.
K'luha Haaz nods to you.
K'luha Haaz: We should start walking then. And avoid any wolves.
K'luha Haaz: Although, we could also the the Aetheryte there.
K'ile Twinflame: I'd assumed we would. I don't need you tiring out your leg before we head out south.
K'luha Haaz scoffed lightly before bringing her hand forward. "Alright, take my hands then."
K'ile Twinflame awkwardly grabs K'luha's hands, "Why does magic have to be so touchy?"
K'luha Haaz rolls her eyes lightly and squeezes K'ile's hand. "Hold on tight and don't let go, lest you be lost in the Aetherways forever."
