Maeryn couldn’t help but smile back at his sweet adopted daughter. [color=625A8A]”Your positivity is ever so comforting, Alaia. Just wait until you see what else Avalia has to offer.”[/color] He patted her shoulder. However, he was not so sure about his second statement. He was more so hoping he’d find perhaps a lead here as news always did travel fast to the orcs, but he knew the humans would have been kept very lowkey. He had a feeling it would take quite some time to finally get a good lead going, but he was a patient man. Maeryn had lived centuries, what was a few days to him?

[color=625A8A]”I have a source or two we can check in with, but most likely we will need to be patient. Let us grab food and rest before we start moving south. Come.”[/color] He moved forward into the Orc market area, the smells of various meats reaching his nose immediately. Upon scoping the area, he stiffened. Many of the orcs’ heads were all turned in one direction and Maeryn had quickly followed their gaze to the strange creatures. His hand moved to grip his bow as he took in the situation visually. His hand slid back as he saw the dark elf accompanying them and realized what exactly they were. He had heard creatures of such might be summoned, but he hadn't expected his own surprise at the sight of them. He had seen many beasts but nothing quite like the ones in front of him. 

He glanced at Alaia after a thoughtful pause, [color=625A8A]” Careful, little one, those are not animals nor beings that one should toy with. It seems as if demons have made their way from the abyss and may very well be allied with us.  I am curious to question the elf hosting their party, but if you are afraid, I will not bring you with me.”[/color]  

Maeryn was apprehensive of bringing his daughter so close to such unpredictable beings, but he recognized she was of age to make her own decisions, so he simply moved forward and allowed her to make her mind up for herself. He came to a stop near the stall and angled his body toward the woman. [color=625A8A]” I could not help but have my interest piqued by your choice of company. So Basilian and Amarantha have gone forward with summoning demons?”[/color]  This would be pleasing news to find out as many demons had unique abilities that could either usurp easily a human’s or perhaps be aided in locating them. Perhaps the Twin-Headed dragon might be using both their heads finally.
