Nika eyed him slowly, much longer than she had the others. She snorted out once, and then cocked her head. "Yes."

Kisa blinked. Just one word. No explanation, no questions. Just yes. Nika was a bit secretive...

He gave a slight nod, stepping back slightly, as not to block anyone's view. In all, though it seemed odd that she asked no questions, he was rather grateful for it, for it meant that he would not have to answer any.

Karayeh nudged him gently, discreetly. :Hey, don't worry about it,: she said gently. :If anything, you can leave when it is all over,: she glanced up at him, although truly, it wasn't incredibly far. In size, she was up to his waist, though her head stood a bit higher.

:Yes,: he said after a while, :When it is over..: his eyes seemed to go distant for a moment, as if he was invisioning the moment, but they cleared almost instantly, as he reminded himself that there were still others around. He could no longer live as he used to; in solitude. He would have to get used to the many others being around him constantly. No more aimless wandering. Now he had a destination, and others to accompany.

(As you noticed, the title says possible saved position. My friend is having trouble checking her e-mail, and so can't get the e-mail I sent to her. I still don't know if she wants to join or not.)

Ember sighed, boredly. "Alright. Any other people you need? Are we waiting for squirrels? Mice? Worms?"

Nika looked over at Ember, and amused look on her face. "Were you planning on meeting any? No? Good. I have all the confirmed people with me, at this moment. We may go now, if you are sure you are not waiting for anyone."

Kisa nodded, mouthing towards Ember to be polite. "Before we leave, if I may do something?" Nika nodded in ascent.

Kisa turned, and walked calmly up the hill. In a nearby clearing there were two horses. She got a peice of paper out of the first one's pack, and wrote something down on it. Ember walked up, and looked to see what she had written.

"You're leaving him in charge?" Ember asked, surprised.

Kisa smiled at her sister, packing the paper into the pack once more. "Of course I am. He is more responsible than you. Sentou, go to where the others are, and give Etel your pack. Eitou, you follow."

As the two horses trotted off, Nika looked at them with mild interest.

Phalan pondered the Segacorn's word, "The Sandy Waters Desert is legendary among travelers. It is said that those who venture end can never find their way out, even if they have journied only for a day. The heat is said to be unbearable to all save the monsters that live there; and rivers of sand course through dunes, invisable until you have been caught in their silent current. Of course these are only stories I have heared, but I must ask, what is so important that you would brave such dangers."

"Most of what you say of the Desert is true, friend Dragon. But have you not heard also of the Denatou, the tribe of Elves who live and flourish in this Desert? Many magical items and Creatures live only in this desert, and these are faithfully taken care of by these Elves. Some things they trade to other peoples, however rarely. It is one of these things I am searching for, something that has been lost to all herds of Segacorn for many a year." Nika said calmly.

"That is why I have acquired Kisa Chance, the leader of the Denatou, to lead us through the Desert and out safely."

Elily raised up her hand eagerly.

'I'll come along! Be more than happy to! But, that is, if you need my services...' she trailed off unsteadily.

'If she's going, I'm coming along,' Elissis said in a solemn manner. It didn't matter to her where they went. To her, the trip to the desert was just another opportunity to go somewhere planned for a change.

"Come along, if you will!" Nika neighed. Then she turned to Meiou.

"Perhaps... Perhaps not. We will soon enough find out, shall we?"

Kisa nodded. "And the sooner we leave, the sooner we can find out what it is she is searching for. Come, we are not that far from the Desert..."

((*Stares at computer screen* if I weren't so dead from trying to figure out math, I'd post something, but unfortunately, my brain has died, and it is now buried in some yonder field, and I have no way of retrieving it. *sigh*. Hopefully I'll post something worthwhile tomorrow ))

(( *pokes rp* well, I'll post, but it won't be very good. I have writer's block O.O I swear, I can't think of anything for this >.< ))

So there was an elven tribe living in the desert... He had heard of them, but never actually seen them. He watched the Denetou elf closely, curiously, though he didn't show it. Were they searching for some stolen treasure? Well, it really didn't matter, for he doubted the treasure would mean anything to him at all.

:does anything mean something to you?: asked Karayeh, rather sardonically. He glanced down at her. f course. Otherwise I wouldn't have this four-legged nuisance following me everywhere,: he replied mildly, ignoring her indignant snort, and concentrating on those in front of him.

WhiteEdit: Do not double post. Please read the rules for more information.

Phalan nodded in agreement, "Yes, I suppose I will join you as well. Perhaps as Meiou has said, we will all find something we seek."

He waded across the river to their side and stood with them.

"I assume that Miss Kisa will be able to provide sutible supplies for the journey? I can survive with out water, but what of you others?" the dragon queried.

Elissis stared at the grass thoughtfully. Yes, water was a necessity, especially if they were going on a journey in a desert. She knew that there were quite a few oasis's and civilizations in the desert, but goodness knows how long they would have to walk before they reached water.

'We could fill up our water supply in a stream nearby,' she suggested.

"Yes. Fill up with water here. The water is clean, I believe Azure made sure of that." Nika said.

Kisa nodded. "You had better. I do not know how fast we will be traveling. We must leave soon, though, if we wish to get to the Desert before dark."

He glanced down at Karayeh, who nodded, and padded towards the river, bending down, her slender maw dipping into the cool water, before lapping up as much as she could hold at the moment. It was a few moments, before she backed up, shaking out her fur, and headed back to Shintyeh.

:I trust you have enough water for me?: She said, glancing up at him. He nodded. :Yes, do not worry. I will not let you dry up.: he seemed rather smug as he spoke, probably because he didn't need to drink like she did. She shook her head at him. :We'll see how well your hunting goes out there,: she said teasingly, then sat down, wrapping her bushy yet silken tail around her strong haunches, the picture of a calm, and patient wolf.
