Oswin could see Calypso was hungry, so he pressed the matter. "I insist! You look like you could use a meal, and we have enough to last us till we reach Lebonwaith." Oswin turned, motioning for Calypso to come over to their camp with them. "Your welcome to, Master Dwarf," he added as he walked.

Rissterus watched Oswin in frustration as he insisted upon them joining them. Well I'm not going to just sit around and chat, he thought angrily. He strode after Oswin, quickly overtaking and passing him, arriving at the campsite before them. He lifted his pack up off the ground with his right hand, and in one movement, placed it on his right shoulder. He then walked off, into the neighboring forest. He would come back when Oswin's little lunch party was over. *exit*

Oswin shook his head as Rissterus passed him, took his pack, and left. He was so callous. He looked behind him at Calypso and Morose. "Don't worry about him, he seems to be like that alot." He sat down and opened his pack, getting out the provisions he had packed.

Elyira followed the group to the camp. When Rissterus abruptly left, she sighed. "Don't worry about him, he seems to be like that alot," Oswin said pleasantly. Elyira started to walk after him. "I'll talk to him." As she passed her pack, she leaned down and picked it up. Somehow she didn't really want to leave it there. She trusted Oswin, and possibly the dwarf, but she wasn't sure about the girl.
Elyiravëra left the others, walking after Rissterus. *exit*

Calypso watched as first the sorcerer left, and then the bard. she wondered how she always managed to cause trouble, even when she wasn't trying to. if the priest wasn't so persistent, this wouldn't be happening a part of her growled scornfully, but then another part was thankful, because she truly was hungry, and he obviously knew it. she followed the priest's lead by sitting down on the ground, though she did so cautiously. she had by now put her knife away, when nobody was looking. she trusted them enough not to think they would attack her any second. now she watched the priest as he pulled out food, feeling her mouth water from her hunger.m

Oswin watched Elyira disappear into the forest after Rissterus, then turned back to Calypso. He smiled as he broke a handful of bread off a loaf and handed it to the girl. "So, what do you do around here?" he asked pleasantly. He couldn't remember if he had already asked, but he didn't think he did.

Oswin broke off a piece of bread, and it was all Cal could do not to snatch it away quickly and shove it in her mouth right then and there, but she resisted, and merely took the bread, quicker than it would be for someone well fed, but no as quick as someone starving would. she took a bite and let the taste of it linger in her mouth, savoring it. "So, what do you do around here?" the priest asked pleasantly. she looked up at him, then back down at the bread, trying to think. did he mean in general, or was he asking about what she was doing in the tree? she knew that the sorcerer had been suspicious, and it was very likely that the priest and the bard had been as well, but they had shown no signs of it. "I like to think around here, away from all the noise you would find in a city." she finally said, deciding it would be okay to tell him. m

Oswin nodded as he put a small piece of bread in his mouth. After chewing it thoughtfully, he replied. "That's perfectly reasonable. I don't know why Rissterus was so suspicious." He reached into his pack and pulled out a small cube of cheese. He picked up a dull knife and cut two slices off, handing one to Calypso, and keeping the other for himself.
"I envy you," he said after a pause. "I often wish to be able to just leave the cathedral for a time, just to think. I don't get the chance often, however. I'm on a pilgrimage," he stated. It wasn't a lie, just a half-truth. Oswin knew he shouldn't tell her everything. "I am traveling with Rissterus and Elyira to Lebonwaith."

A horse could be heard galloping along the path at a steady pace not far from were they had just come.. Soon the sound was upon them and from around the bend came a rider.. Seeing the gathering of people he slowed down to a canter & adventually a stop.. The rider was shirtless, letting the sun hit his body.. He had what looked to be crossed between a broad and a long sword hanging strapped to his black horse, there was also a numerous amount of belongies including an acoustic guitar..
The rider looked down upon the small group with his green eye's they looked friendly enough he thought but noticed they had the look they could handle themselves.. Still he was starving.. "Where are you headed?" He asked in a young but deep voice..m

Oswin looked up as the rider came into view. "Greetings, friend!" Oswin called out to the young man. He rose and approached Taj so they could speak better. The hem of his priest's robe brushing over the long grass. "We are bound for Lebonwaith. And yourself?" Oswin said in a friendly voice.

Calypso was shocked into silence upon learning that this magnificent priest envied her, of all people. she was always hungry, had no home, only owned the clothes on her back and the dagger hidden up her sleeve, and he envied her! he probably was a high ranking priest, powerful and smart. she could hardly read, and could write only her name, and even that was in horrible penmanship. she envied him for everything he had, and she had good reason.
before she could point any of this out, a man on a horse approached, and called out to them. she reluctantly followed Oswin, but kept a small distance between herself and the black beast. she had learned to hate horses, after one nearly killed her after she accidentally spooked it. she always kept enough distance from one so that it couldn't kick her.m

Taj smiled warmly.. He had a fond liking to relgious people's even though he wasn't sure on which religion took his own fancy he knew most priest's & such to be warm hearted.. As this current priest approached him and spoke out he noticed a frail looking youn girl behind him & another girl sitting by the small campsite.. "Greetings, friend!", "We are bound for Lebonwaith. And yourself?" The priest said in a friendly voice..
Taj stroked his horse's mane as to calm her down letting her know these people were friendly..
"Well im just heading back there now.. Would you care if I joined you untill we reach the city?" He asked, figuring this a good oppurtunaty to gather information about Lebonwaith as last time he was there he didn't do much but get himself into trouble..

"Well I'm just heading back there now.. Would you care if I joined you until we reach the city?" Oswin shuddered inwardly. That would anger Rissterus. Still, Oswin could find no good reason to turn Taj down, and the seconds were passing... "I see no reason to on my part," Oswin said, finally deciding what to say. "I am travelling with two other travellers, however, and I can't speak for them. Will you not join us and tell us of your travels? When they get back you can also speak with them."

"I am travelling with two other travellers, however, and I can't speak for them. Will you not join us and tell us of your travels? When they get back you can also speak with them." Replied the Priest.. Taj nodded.. "I understand.. Well I will join you for now.." He dismounted his horse and led it too a near by tree.. Throwing some horse feed from a small bag in front of the horse and tying it's riens to a branch he then grabbed a small bag and headed over to the group.. He extended his hand to the Priest and then the girl saying in greeting.. "My name is Taj ;D "m

"I am Oswin," Oswin replied in turn, shaking Taj's hand. He motioned for Taj to sit, then sat down himself. He took another bite of his bread and cheese. After swallowing, he asked, "You are headed to Lebonwaith as well, then? And what are you to do, there?"
