	"Anyways, we need to get back to the point. Let's get out there and find these Exiled."
- 
   
	Yeah. *He looks at the bouquet in his hand, putting it on the table*
- 
   
	"I Uh.... Forgot you had that. I'm sorry."
- 
   
	Oh, it's not a problem... I'll just put it at her door in a little...
- 
   
	"Yeah. Yeah. Make sure you leave a note or something."
- 
   
	Yeah, I was planning that in the back of my head as we were walking here...
- 
   
	"Hey I read your mind didn't I?"
- 
   
	Don't make this weird
- 
   
	"Wow okay I'm sorry." [b]Royal frowned, looking back at the map [/b]
- 
   
	*Mortar chuckles slightly* Can we go now?
- 
   
	"Yeah I'm ready." [i]"Indeed." [/i]
- 
   
	Reese: Then let's go. *Mortar nods, grabbing the bouquet and quickly going to the cave and dropping them off with a note before standing at the mouth of the forest*
- 
   
	[b]Royal stood by him, examining the large bark trees [/b] "Could they be in the trees? Or will they be residing in caves?"
- 
   
	They have been in either. Eyes up
- 
   
	[b]Royal watched the trees as they walked, keeping a hand on the hilt of his blade [/b]
- 
   
	*As Mortar steps into the forest, a THWING is heard and an arrow flies right past Mortar's face*
- 
   
	"COVER!" [b]Royal spun begin the cover of a tree, pulling Mortar with him [/b]
- 
   
	*Mortar rolls, minimizing impact. As he rolls, he notices a snapped tripwire where he stood* Mortar: It was a tripwire, guys, watch your step
- 
   
	"Guys? Aren't we the only ones in the forest?"
- 
   
	Cross: We're never the only ones. So long as the Exiled live here, they make ten feel like a hundred. That's just their tactics
- 
   
	"Wait Crossbow??? Weren't you supposed to go to the mountains?"
- 
   
	Cross; Yes, I did. Though I heard you and thought there was someone out here. Pardon my willingness to assist you.
- 
   
	"Pardoned." [b]Royal exited his cover behind the tree, watching the ground as he walked [/b]
- 
   
	Besides... These are fresh, so we need to focus our strength in here. I'll call Reese
- 
   
	"Okay. You do you. Just make Sure Reese tells Kross."
