Unknown Forest, travelling to the village by dirt road.

"Alright." She began, "I'm sure most of you have your own questions to ask, I know I do, but for now, we need to get to the village. We don't know what's in this forest that might have a hankering for us, and I sure as hell do not want to find out. That clay tiger can be replaced, but if you die, you die, so we best move. Now, before it gets dark."
Juno began to travel towards the village. Stas looked up at the sky and noted the current position of the sun, making an estimate of how much sunlight they had left. The night didn't bother him, nor did the possible predators. He recalled him night training, and they were travelling by road. Animals usually avoided roads, Stas thought. He might be wrong though. What did bother him was who else would be travelling under the cover of darkness, he carried out many military operations during the night, and heard that many FOBs had been attacked during the night. The night was a friend to attackers and a foe to defenders. He looked at the floating child and at Edwin the Artist, he would definitely be on the defensive if their group was under attack.

The floating girl opted to gain altitude to act as the navigator. As the group took their first steps, Stas took up the rearguard. They hadn't gone far however, when their navigator flew right back down and reported that three men were running right towards them. He cursed under his breath and Edwin spoke up, "Officer Hightower, Colonel Klink and Wendy Darling, I think we should really pick up the pace. I smell burning and it doesn't exactly look like it's getting any darker." He picked up the pace and walked closer to Juno.
Stas jogged right by his side, "Just call me Stas." Ignoring the nickname that Edwin had given him, "If those guys turn out to be hostiles, I want you to dive into the bush and hide while Juno and I are keeping them busy. Don't run, they'll spot you and run you down. Just keep your head down and be well hidden." He instructed, "If I go down I'll try and go down near you, so you can pick up the spear." He pointed at Linnea, who was hovering above them, "You too. First sign of trouble I want you to bail out, keep an eye on Edwin so you two can link up after the battle if Juno and I are down."

He jogged up next to Juno. "I've told the flyer to bail and Edwin to hide if the three guys approaching turn out to be hostile." He sniffed and confirmed what Edwin had said, "And something is on fire. What's the play ma'am?"
So...
We don't have a techpriest. Hopefully we don't have any rebelling doors or something in our way anytime soon.
I'm waiting on McFazzer and Tricheus.

Unknown Forest, by an unknown dirt road.

"I see. Juno Aulia, police officer." She introduced herself. "I assume everyone here is heading to the village on account of some dream?"
"Some sort of half-asleep voice, but it's close enough. Good to meet you Officer Aulia." Stas replied, he leaned over and picked up his spear again, shaking it a little to get the dirt off. He noticed the other man, with rather impressive hair approaching him, rather awkwardly smiling and keeping his hands away from his body like Stas was some sort of enemy pointing a rifle at him.

"Hi, Soldier...Krolikov? Am I pronouncing it right? That is a very big and sharp looking spear you have there. I must admit it is quite intimidating, certainly much larger than the dinky little crafting scalpel in my left pocket. Well I suppose size isn't everything, or am I saying that to make myself feel better?" The man nervously laughed, then he turned towards Juno. "And yooooooou are a... tall drink of water Officer Aulia. Might I say that is a very fetching dress you are sporting. The colour suits you." He paused and glanced at her horn, "I can't say that I am here for any particular reason, I'm not in the habit of taking advice from my dreams." Stas sort of looked at him with a mildly concerned look. "Now where are my manners, my name is Edwin Gordon, artist by passion and by trade, it is a pleasure to meet such... strong, capable looking individuals, but I really should be looking for my little Clay Tiger." The man with the impressive hair introduced himself. As he was just about to leave, a small child came over. Flying. Stopping just above them hovering. Stas blinked twice, rubbed his eyes and poked himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He wasn't sure how she was flying, but she was.

"Hi, um- hi. Eh-Excuse me, the village..." She said, then pointing up the road, "The village is over that way. It's not far, but maybe it will take us a while to get there... maybe." Edwin and the girl began to talk, using that as his cue, Stas walked over to Juno. Inhaled deeply and let out a hearty exhale.
"Well. Despite the uh... Flying girl," Pointing back at the artist and the flying one with his thumb, "And Edwin's missing small clay tiger. We have a direction now to the village. What do you think we should do?" He asked, looking up at what he could describe as a paler, horned Amazon.
The roleplay is moving too fast for me, i'm afraid i'm going to have to drop out.


The road got crowded pretty quick.
