Hunter Hunter smiled and finished eating before jumping to his feet. He backed towards the window and adjusted the ropes around his shoulders. "Well, thank you for the food!" He said happily. "Um, hey can I... can I call you my..." he paused thinking of the word, a little nervous. "... my friend?" He asked sitting there ready to leave, but waiting for her answer.
Cairo Cairo walked through the city streets standing out among the crowd. He seemed to not be looking for anything in particular, not looking around at any of the scenery or shops, he was just walking through the streets as if lost, but not lost in the streets, rather, lost in the world.
((Sorry it's short. Not feeling to imaginative...))

Arryn watched as Hunter ate his food. It seemed that he thoroughly appreciated the meal, since he didn't leave a scrap of food. The woman crossed her legs and watched him stand up, pulling the furs over his shoulder and... asking her if they could be friends. Her eyes widened for a moment, but she felt something warm in her chest. She never had a true friend before. All of her sisters were married off and she only saw them in parties. But a smile crossed over her face, and she nodded. "Sure." then again, maybe it was a mistake. This would only encourage him to stalk her more than before. But she ignored that thought, and smiled again as she picked up the plate.

Hunter smiled widely and stepped out the window. "Well, then I guess I'll see you around.." he said getting ready to leave, before he did he turned back still smiling. "Friend." He finished before jumping off and running towards his cave.
((Short, just wanted to get in a post for now to unfreeze our characters))

Tara tried to not look insulted when the man offered to come with her. "Fine, but don't get in my way. I've got business with whatever caused that explosion, and I intend to make sure they don't escape my wrath." what a complete dolt, however maybe it would be best to have a companion with her. Hopefully, he wouldn't talk too much about how he was traveling with a foreborn. That alone was too identifiable, and she needed to never let her enemies know she was coming to get them... whoever they were.

Charlie and Tara made haste to the explosion and the man drew his crossbow. Pulling it back, he loaded a bolt and turned to Tara as they moved. He was about to speak when he saw a beast fly up but come crashing down as what seemed to be a man from that distance, leapt up and grabbed hold of it's hind legs. "I suppose we know what's causing the disruption." He said, still moving towards it. He wasn't so sure about this. He'd fought before but never a dragon. And who or whatever was fighting was probably not a normal person. "Still out to exact your wrath?"
Mika was panting by the time she got to North Thystys and saw the little stunt. "Damn you, you rusty fork!" She shouted, still quite peeved with her friend. She drew her sword and looked at Thomas, "I think we found what we were coming for." She said as she set her hands on her knees for a moment. "I hope you know something about fighting dragons, because I just thought they were a myth."

King Josef of Northboro
Deep in a drunken stupor, Josef wandered through the streets with a bottle of bad-smelling stuff in his hand. If not for his elaborate and expensive dress (some of which he'd gambled away), one would never have guessed he was actually a king of a very powerful nation in terms of sheer strength. If only he had the charisma of a good king to bring them together in war. But that was far from his mind. Bumping into an angelic figure, the king straightened a bit and looked at him with what he thought was a serious and scary expression, but what was probably on of the more comical things one could see that day. "Mind [hic] where yer goin' [hic], you lil' shit."
Alexander | Laatshulsejun
"Yes, she has blue hair. I am unaware of her opinions of it," the dragon responded coolly, not making any remarks about her babbling. "I am Laatshulsejun, but please call me Alexander. The queen does not know of my affliction and I do not want her to get hurt on my account. I work for her, after all. My job is to protect her and the less she knows the safer she is. I would be quite pleased if she kept on thinking that we're both just mages." Buying her stay for one night quickly at the innkeeper's desk, he handed Ruso the key and led her up to where the queen's chamber was. Knocking on the door softly, her voice could be heard from within. "Who goes there?" "Alexander. I have brought a new friend with me." "Alright." Sounds of her stirring and unlatching the door could be heard before it swung open with a creak. "Queen Kai, meet Ruso. Ruso, meet Queen Kai."
Thomas Hampton
When Mika set off in a run, Thomas started to sprint after her. Though it would be easy enough to summon a beast of the rocks and pebbles around to carry him to battle, the man didn't want to be too tired out from magic usage before the fight started. He had his spear for when that did happen, but he preferred to stay a safe distance away from the enemy. Though Thomas was strongest when using a type of magic that required bodily touch to work on an enemy, he was also the least stable. It was the type of magic that was often debated by influential magi because of how it had the potential to corrupt the minds of those who used it. So he stayed away from the enemy and worked on conjuring bread and water for the party to eat and drink afterwards. It was vital to stay hydrated and fed. When they finally arrived when Rusty was, the golem seemed to have already started a fight with a dragon. So that's what the explosion was! "I'll try to fight the thing from down here. Do what you can, but don't overdo it." After that, Thomas seemed to go mad drawing circles in the air and muttering small spells. He sent bombardments of ice and fire and metal and wood and water. It didn't seem to do a lot of damage, but he didn't put a lot of energy into the attacks so if one accidentally his Rusty it wouldn't be too much damage to an ally.

Mika smiled. "Of course." She ran towards the fight and figured she'd have move luck on the rooftops. A little bit of effort, but without shoes, she could get grips on small ridges. She scrambled up the wall and ran along the rooftops towards the fighting. Rusty had done good job, keeping the destruction centered to the explosion site. But all that effort meant nothing if he couldn't defeat the beast. They were on the ground again and rusty was banged up. She became worried that he might lose his physical form and have to transfer. But she took the chance to run up behind the dragon and pounce, sword overheard, digging into it's side. It caused a shriek that was blood-curdingly loud. It obviously hadn't been pierced yet.

Tara
"If it's magic, then it dies," she said as she loaded her gun. "Makes things simple. I just hope you can keep up." with a smile, "because I'm gonna slay this thing so fast that you'll blink and miss it!" with that she launched into battle, dropping the wrapped up legs as she went to drop extra weight. She'd need to be fast to fight the dragon, since if she messed up it could severely injure her. She started forward, but noticed a man nearby doing magic. She didn't waste time targeting the man instead. Magic users needed to be eradicated, and he was probably doing something to hurt her. He also had the probability of not hurting her, but her bias won out and she aimed her gun at the man. "Stop the magic or I shoot!"
Ruso The Liar
"Ach, when you introduce someone to the queen for the first time, you use their full name, silly Alex!" Ruso smiled. "Name's Ruso The Liar, magic user who may or may not be totally insane. So if I say something completely ludicrous or call someone by the wrong name, you can just discard it. Your name's Rai, right?" she was setting up a cover for when she accidently said Alex's real name or did something out of the ordinary. "Queen Rai of the lovely blue hair! Speaking of, did you use magic to make it that color or what?"

Queen Kai of Northboro
When Ruso scolded Alexander, Kai just giggled, covering her mouth with her hand politely. When she spoke again, Kai smiled softly. "Alright. I shall keep that in mind. And my name is Kai. I didn't get this hair color using magic, no. Sylphs naturally are colored to look like the element they bend. It is the same with any other sylph. Fire sylphs are generally reddish, plant sylphs are generally greenish, earth sylphs are generally brownish or grayish. It all depends. But I bend ice, so I have blue eyes and hair." With a graceful wave of her hand, she conjured an ice sculpture of Ruso in the middle of one of her signature random speeches. After regarding it for a few seconds, she turned back to look at Alexander and Ruso. "Oh, please come in." Ambling towards her pet griffon, she smiled and pet him affectionately. "This is Nox."
Thomas Hampton
When a woman held him at gunpoint he just grinned. "Go ahead and shoot whatever the Hell that is, but no projectile will touch me." Perhaps she didn't realize that, once she started looking at him funny, he siphoned the extra magic that he wasn't using on the dragon to create a protective shield of wind going in a circular motion around him. Anything that was fired at his would get caught in the enchanted whirlwind would circled around him harmlessly. "You take me for a fool, miss. I've heard about your kind. Foreborn. That's what you are, right? No other race has access to that technology." He paused for a moment to send a flash of lightning at the beast. "Besides, the moment you go threatening to kill me, I become more difficult to negotiate with. All you had to do was ask nicely. I'm no monster, but I can't exactly speak for you."

Cairo continued to look lost even after bumping into Josef. He stopped and snapped out of his daze and looked at Josef as he spoke. He quickly analyzed the words, copied the language and replied. "Excuse me, I didn't mean to run into you." He said apologizing quickly. He thought for a moment and looked around, everything seemed different, felt different, everything was off. "Hey, uh, could you possibly tell me where I am?" He asked looking even more lost than he did before.
