Once the initial meeting at the Port had blown over, Bron had managed to get to know Annya and Bardulf a little better as well as the rest of the Elf's retinue. However once arriving at North Pass, the usually quiet talk even ended up talking to a few of the members. First was Bardulf who was privvy to Bron's temper upon first meeting all those months ago. It turns out the two had quite a bit in common including their love of nature and the freedom the wilds bring. It was interesting to hear about the human's experiences in his own forest wilds compared to Bron's many years ranging the mountains. They even taught each other outside of training. Bron managed to teach Bardulf a trick or two in throwing axes and in turn he learn the basics of woodcarving. It seemed to be a prized hobby to Bardulf, and Bron had managed to craft a rough pendant to honor his dead brother as a result of the human's teaching.

A surprise to Bron would be the ever-so curious fairy, Rue. Anyone back home might've thought that Rue had simply worn the Dwarf down to tolerating the fairy but Bron genuinely found her inquisitive nature endearing. Though his outward look, remaining as cold as the Pass they now resided in, he always showed a little warmth whenever Rue wanted to chat or ask something of him. He was always happy to tell a story or two.

He even got to know Princess Annya better. He figured pretty early that the drunken stupor he had found her and Kaleb in wasn't her normal state and he appreciated that fact although still did not remain too pleased about it. During their travels, Bron found that Annya was truly deeply caring for both the humans and her comrades. Turns out Annya could have quite a commanding presence, especially when something needed doing. To this effect, it actually earnt a bit of respect from Bron towards the Princess and when he was asked to help lead martial and physical training, he happily took on the responsibility.

Bron was hard but fair when it came to training, ensuring that everyone was pushed their limits... Well, except for Kaleb. Any wise comment or backhanded remark would earn the human harsher reps in his exercise or a little extra force in sparring. Nothing too serious, of course, but just enough to let Kaleb know that Bron was on to him. No one would be excused from lacking in their training. Even if they were versed in magic, Bron made sure that everyone at least got acquainted with hand-to-hand combat just in case.

Dear Friends

I think we’ve come to enjoy our time here, and I would like to have us all have a fun day tomorrow. If you would like to come, please meet me and whoever else is attending outside the Odds and Ends shortly after 2pm. I know it’s our day off but I think this will be fun. We can go shopping for some new gear, and then I was thinking of having us all go on a little hunting trip outside of town. We could even make it a friendly competition! Whoever brings back the biggest kill wins! Or we can just do it for fun, really whatever everyone fancies. I look forward to seeing you all!

Sincerely,
Bardulf

It was a letter that Bron hadn't been expecting, but he did welcome it. Hunting to gather more food certainly wouldn't hurt and it would be nice to get out of the lodgings for a moment. The Dwarf gathered his equipment and threw on his amulet and cloak, swiftly setting off to the Odds and Ends for the meeting. Upon arrival, he would note that not too many had arrived yet. Bron would pull his hood back and nod towards each member of the hunting party in greeting. "Bardulf, thank you for recommending this. Will... we be the only ones attending?"

Bron's eyebrows furrowed as Kaleb quite literally displayed a fiery temper, which almost instinctively caused him to draw one of his axes. It would not be a displeasure for Bron to take down what could very well be a risk. It was these thoughts that made him forget what the newcomer, Bardulf, and Annya had just said. However, such abilities he wasn't aware that the Elves possessed. Was Kaleb's ears merely a trick? Perhaps the Princess had a modicum of responsibility afterall. "HOLD YOUR TONGUE, CHILD!" Bron roared back.

He had neither the patience nor inclination to abide this foolishness any longer and felt the need to quash the outburst himself. "Do you wish to draw more attention to yourself than you already may have done!? Whether you like it or not, I will not entertain your antics as I join you. This world does not revolve around you, boy. You will learn that or you will be left behind and your connection to the Princess will not save you. Am. I. Clear?"

@VitaVitaARActually, yes please! So it seems characters are starting with magic/magical relics. Am I seeing this right or is there some sort of concession I am missing for taking these?

“Hey Bron, a bow and some soft words may work on her, but as her protector, you’re going to have to cough up a lot more than something any dwarf from here to Iron Hold could make up to please me.” Kaleb stepped slightly in front of Annya. “You can tell us about yourself right here. Not like we have much of an audience outside the back door of a brothel.”

Bron's eyebrows furrowed towards the boy, a hand falling to the top of one of his axes that was tied to his belt. "We don't have time for your impudence, boy." The Dwarf almost growled towards Kaleb as his facial expression was quickly beginning to darken. Bron was beginning to get a little frustrated so soon. The Ranger felt as if he was the only one that understood the gravity of Avalia's state of affairs... yet here a Princess and her retinue tasked with protecting the humans had seemingly just been carousing without a care in the world. "My duty is to the King of Iron Hold first and, as a Ranger, to Avalia second. That is why I am here and I am in no mood to fight you on the matter."

"... I am not your enemy, but those that are will come for us. Does that satisfy your question?" He added in a vague attempt to drop the matter and get back to business.

Bron had grew slightly frustrated that he didn't hear anything while being at the Tipsy Tavern, especially pertaining to sightings of Princess Annya and her supposed retinue. In an attempt to clear his head, the Ranger had stepped outside to to breathe in the cool night air as the ambience of the establishment rabbled on behind him. Where could they be? Surely with the weight of the current affairs, the Elf Princess wouldn't be risking being too public with their whereabouts? Maybe they didn't make it to River Port at all? Perhaps that damn creature that attacked his brethren got to them too. He tutted at the thought of it, deciding to go on a walk until his attention was suddenly drawn.

His ears pricked at the sounds of what was likely an argument, even amongst the noise of the port but any lead would be taken. Deciding it was worth checking out, Bron would try and follow the noise. He tried to hone in on the specific sounds using his tracking training, eventually the voices and words becoming clear.

“Fuck… Where’s Eris?”

“She's… Oh shit, where's Eris?!”

Bron picked up the pace a bit as he rounded the corner and noticed where the voices were coming from. He peered round and eavesdropped in, making sure to try and get as much information as he could before approaching. The Elf woman that was banging on the door certainly matched the description given by King Brolmyr, despite her frazzled look, but his suspicions was confirmed when her companion mentioned her by name. He watched as they were about to set off but Bron quickly tried to approach them before they could get too far.

Clearing his throat, Bron would bow towards Princess Annya. "I'm sorry to disturb you, Princess Annya. My name is Bron Emberguard. I have been sent from your friends at Iron Hold." He would raise his head again before getting a better look at the current states of the two before him. "Are... you both alright?" The Dwarf asked awkwardly, mostly out of surprise meeting the Princess like this and his personal disposition on niceties.
