"Oh well," Eyre gave a slight shrug with the statement. "Should have figured." Even if Hokori was right and they didn't need to split up, telepathy still had its uses in close distances. Whatever, she'll make do with using spoken language.

Eyre took a few steps back from the scene, she didn't want to be directly involved in it, but she'd help if push came to shove. Now a little further away, she noticed some rustling in the foliage near where Hokori entered. Out popped two foxes, one black one white. They approached the rest of the group, sniffing about. They were probably getting a feel for the area, like dogs. "They're kinda cute," She remarked. Eyre hadn't seen foxes in person before, let alone ones that were black or white. "Wonder why they're here."

Vale hardly noticed the cries of the elf, his slit pupils fixed upon the purple irises of the enormous humanoid before him. His tongue flicked out every few seconds, giving him a constant mental image of what was around him. Though, he could smell that this monster before him was a demi-human. The unmistakable scent of animal and human, both pouring from the same spots on the juggernaut's armor. Gerrin and Tabbethuh, the foxes, trotted around the few gathered for a long moment, imprinted their scents to memory. Then, they took a few bounds and leapt impossibly high to Derek's shoulders.

Azure had been plodding along, listening into everyone's conversations and most of the time, paid no mind to them. They didn't really involve him after all. The mention of telepathy make his ears perk up slightly, but he himself had nothing of the sort. He continued to walk, half-listening into the other's conversations.

Gritting his teeth,Hokori shouted once more but,much to his surprise,there was no reaction whatsoever. Carefully looking around,he tried to see what would be the most appropriate angle to fire of a warning spell of some sort. Tightening his grip around his wand and with a quick flick forwards,flames came off of the tip of the wand for a couple of seconds,away from the foxes,Vale and the group in general as well as any trees. Hoping the lasting bright light would intimidate the two foxes and Derek. "Heed my warning! Lay off this snakefolk or I won't have any second thoughts enveloping you in this scorching heat. Not only are you up against me but you're also heavily outnumbered! Consider your choices,though there is only one."

Almost at once, the light-colored fox leapt down, striding towards Hokori with a clear purpose. Tabbethuh trotted directly up to him, looked up, then jumped, her teeth aiming to snatch his wand from his hand. She was clearly not appreciative of the fire, though the reason was unclear until she drew close to the elf: her body was letting off a constant aura of cold air, as if her fur was made of ice. It didn't seem to be, but it felt that way.

Finch admittedly didn’t know what the best thing to do about the situation ahead of her. Ah, right, not bringing her scythe was a poor decision. Now that she’d unknowingly acknowledged her flaw, she stuck out her hand and snatched Hokori’s wand high in the air away from Tabbethuh, before lowering it into reach for the elf again. Evading the fox’s attack was the best idea for her, though she really wasn’t sure. Hesitation might be defeat, and if it was, would she be ready to embrace it? Finch stayed quiet, her expression tense.

Taking one glance at the situation, Alaparos could only sigh and shake his head. While finally seeing what the cause of the uncanny silence was did calm his frazzled nerves, it was time to flex his peacemaker muscles. Again. "Now now, let us all back down for a moment. Finch, thank you for your quick thinking." He spoke clearly, keeping his tone friendly and warm as it cut through the tense stand off. Slowly with enough time for both participants in the stare off to catch sight of him, Alaparos came to roll up between the two, keeping his back to Vale as he craned his head to meet Derek's imposing figure. It was almost hilarious how a human was now standing between two creatures almost twice his size. "I apologize for barging in and the hostilities but we truly mean no harm. We were simply traversing through the forest and do not intend to engage in any battles." As if to emphasize this point, Alaparos held up his empty hands, head tipped to the side to expose his neck in an instinctual show of submission and goodwill. Though, in actuality it was more of a obligatory show as Alaparos was more than capable of defending himself even when seemingly defenseless. After all, remote magic casting wasn't something most people expected of him.

Despite the seeming act of meekness, Alaparos' eyes did keep themselves trained on the perceived threat, as if daring him to attack or turn down his offer at talking things out. A challenge disguised as a diplomatic move.

Vale was the first one to break eye contact, most of his body still in the trees around them. He slowly turned his gaze to Alaparos, observing the interruption of this aggressive ritual. Then Derek did as well, the Demi-human's violet eyes meeting Al's. He stared for a long moment, the metal face mask of his helmet hiding most of his emotion. His gruff voice broke the silence between the snake and the beast in a slow, almost humorous sentence: "I could pick you up and carry you on my shoulders." That was all he said, nothing more. Tabbethuh jumped back to Derek's shoulder, taking her rightful place beside his head.


Vale, however, was more hesitant to let the challenge end. "You're in the way." His breath was warm, despite the cold similarities between him and ice. His breath was warm, especially on the back of Alaparos' neck, where Vale had decided to focus on. Having been wrapped around two trees most of this time, he'd hardly needed his upper body to do anything. Though, now he let his head lower slowly to try and move Alaparos.

"So you can, and so I am." Alaparos agreed easily though he didn't move. One hand came up to push Vale's head back slightly, grip surprisingly strong for what appeared to be a human, yet only succeeded in providing a target for the serpantfolk to butt against. "But I know how to immobilize both of you so what say we back down and talk things out? I dislike using force and would rather facilitate a conversation instead. Besides, it could simply be a misunderstanding on both our parts so let's calm down first, no? No sense in becoming so aggressive." A blatant lie, Alaparos' first instinct was always to fight first before all else using force to overcome any problem but this team (if you could call them that at all) needed a peace maker, and not another fighter. His communication skills seemed to be the best of them all, or at least he was the most willing of them all to take on such a role. Though, conversation didn't seem to be leaning towards the more peaceful route so he at least readied himself to fight if needed. He really hoped it wouldn't come to that though. Fighting was a pain in his current form.

Without putting much thought into the decision, Eyre ended up sending a message to Vale using her telepathy. "And besides, it's better to leave some things alive," her tone was lighthearted, but there was a bit of sincerity to it. She didn't know if Vale would be able to understand it, but she tried her best to make it as easy as possible to do so. Eyre knew, however, that the chance for him to respond the same way was slim. And if Alaparos couldn't devolve the situation, perhaps she could get Vale to focus on something else, like her.

Vale pressed against Alaparos' hand defiantly, hardly straining any muscles in his upper body. If anything, he seemed to be more enticed into a competition with the other creature, pressing harder against the hand with the passing moments. Derek, however, stayed quite silent. The two seemed to have come to a stalemate, both focused on Alaparos. Crouching down, Derek shed his now empty backpack. Even crouching, he was nearly taller than Alaparos in his wheelchair. The size of the blade on his back could easily deter anybody, if violence did break out, likely why Vale and Derek had been in such a fearsome staring contest; Vale feared the bite of Derek's blade, Derek feared the crushing pressure of Vale's coils.

With Derek's seeming acceptance of Alaparos' suggestion, the man in question sighed and tried more earnestly to push back against Vale's snout, hand trailing under to gently scratch the underside of the reptile's chin in an attempt to appease him. He hoped Derek wouldn't bite his hand off for this. Regrowing body parts wasn't part of his magical repertoire and even if he lost a hand it would still be gone even if he shifted back into his more natural form. That aside, Alaparos took the time to really examine the stranger, taking in the threatening appearance. He didn't appear to be all that scared of Derek though he appreciated not having to lean back and crane his neck just to meet the demi-god's eyes. "Thank you." He said gratefully, dipping his head in appreciation. "I apologize for the hostility, we were simply searching for someone. Would you by any chance know anyone by the name of Oneiro?" His words were straight to the point without any pointless sweet talking, upfront and honest.

Vale pressed harder against Alapros' hands, intent on making this into a shove-of-war. The scratching under his chin seemed to make him hesitate, a bit of weight applied down into the scratching, though he was soon back to trying to push Alaparos out of his wheelchair. Derek thought for a moment, considering Al's words carefully before speaking, his rumbling voice matching the comparison to a demi-god. "Oneiros, Oneiro, something of the sort? He spoke to me in my dream, just a few hours ago. I paid no heed to it, seeing as many things often speak in my dreams, but the fact you know of it..." He trailed off, his eyes narrowing as they stared into Alaparos' own. "It intrigues me, that you know of it. I assume that this would be some kind of calling, then? Something you shared as well?"

Oh great, another person would be joining their party. An unreadable expression flickered over his face for a moment before he smiled warmly. “Ah, well that would be all of us. All of us that you see before you have received some sort of dream from Oneiro and were searching for answers.” He admitted, fruitlessly defending himself from Vale’s assault. The wheelchair was rocking from the amount of force Vale was using and the only force keeping it upright was Alaparos’ own weight. “We were all called to this forest and wondered if it held any cl-umph” His sentence was cut off when Vale finally succeeded, the lightweight KSL loosing against the much stronger serpentfolk as one hefty push later, the wheelchair was on the ground and so was Alaparos. It was almost humorous how he almost blended in with the forest floor, earthen colored clothing making him appear as if he was part of the natural scenery. But Alaparos quickly pushed himself up by his elbows, eyes flashing angrily as he glared at Vale. “If you attack, I will put your head so far into the ground you’ll have to eat dirt to dig yourself out.” He snarled, a ridiculous threat coming from someone sprawled on the ground but the crackle of volatile magic that seemed to weigh the air down suddenly gave some weight to his words.

Vale grumbled something about Alaparos not putting up enough of a fight, his body soon vanishing into the leaves with a loud huff sounding a moment later. Derek, clearly the kinder of the two, righted the wheelchair and -as gently as he could- picked up Alaparos and set him down. Granted, his strength made everything easy for him, leading to a little more force then needed being used. He'd shuddered when the sound of magic met his sensitive ears, hardly dulled by the muffler of his hair and helmet. "As you were saying?"

For a moment, Eyre was reminded of home. Her oldest brothers, Eber and Egil were fighting again about some dumb thing, and Ervin was, as always, trying to pacify them with words. And Eyre, she stood on the sidelines, there to separate the oldest two if need be. She didn't know why she noticed now and not sooner, it was almost uncanny. It made her miss home a little more.

Whatever, she wouldn't be able to do anything about her homesickness in the near future. She watched Vale melt into the foilage and wondered if he'd be back. Eventually, she concluded. She did make note of where he left, in case it wasn't the case. She waited for Alaparos, who was placed back in his wheelchair as quickly as he was shoved out of it, to explain it to the newcomer. She would add details if need be, but Eyre figured that it wouldn't be necessary.

Wincing as he was set down a bit harshly, pain lancing up his legs, Alaparos gingerly shifted to situate himself more comfortably. The magic fizzled out as he calmed himself, the small moment where he snapped at someone covered up as easily as he drew his blanket around himself. A wave of exhaustion crashed over him at the sudden rise and fall of his magic, dog tag eagerly taking what it was given as it rested heavily against his chest. "Thank you, you really didn't need to." He mumbled, metal making a light sound as his boots rested against them. Blinking away any signs of tiredness, he focused on the task at hand as he tried to remember what he had said before he had been bowled over. "Back on topic, however, we were wondering if the forest had any clues. Some theories have been passed around but so far everything is simply conjuncture. The only thing we know for sure is that all of us have been visited by this Oneiro in a dream. In the dream he spoke of the destruction of the Inanis University as well as a looming danger. I assume you too have experienced this dream as well?"

"Yes, yes. I had been wanting to attend the University due to good promise for those lacking in magic, such as myself. However, I did not notice anything out of the ordinary, aside from a few peskier-..." He trailed off, turning his head ever so slightly. "Tabbethuh, Gerrin, find." The foxes leapt from his shoulders in opposite directions, both of them eventually ending at a single tree, looking upwards. A low growl escaped from Derek as he stood, his long stride carrying him to the tree quickly. Glancing up, he raised one heavily armored foot and kicked the tree, the shuddering running through the ground and out in large waves, as if a small earthquake had just hit. As a tribute to Derek's strength, a small cry rang out and the fairy from just earlier fell down, stunned long enough for Derek to take hold of him. "Peskier students." The fairy didn't speak, aside from a small, "I'm sorry," in an attempt to be freed from any crimes that Derek held against him. Derek stayed very quiet, his violet eyes now glaring ferociously at the smaller creature.

"Hmpf,much obliged." Hokori thanked Finch. Exerting his presence didn't really seem to got him that far but Alaparos managed to properly assess and deal with the situation. He stood by,carefully listening to the conversation while trying his best to keep his guard up. It would appear he too had the same dream.

Finch didn’t seem to be absorbing any of the words being spoken, but the idea she got was that more souls were joining the party, and it’s always fun to have more possible friends. The scarecrow smiled nonetheless, lowering her hand to go back under her poncho. “Can I get your names?” She piped up, her high pitched voice fitting of a short yet smiley scarecrow. She rocked from boot to boot, taking in the appearances of the newcomers with a curious expression.
