Kaelmourne was easy to find after the encounter with the triceratops, all you had to do was follow the sound of arrows.Wyatt approached the drow with his hands behind his back.
"ok I know you had your eyes set on that triceratops but I found you a new pet" Wyatt said as he brought his hands around to reveal a black kitten amber coloured eyes .
"see cats are ways better than dinosaurs. you don't have to clean up after them,they're quiet,and they won't impale you in your sleep"
Wyatt waited holding the cat for kaelmourne's reaction.

Kaelmourn's featureless, hooded gazed turned towards Wyatt for a few moments. He continued to stare at him for some time, an eery silence that usually suggested a death glare. A pet? He didn't need a pet. The odd attempt at finding the good in failure oddly enough made the Drow only angrier as his mind focused back on the failure with the reptilian creature hours ago. The sound of cocking mechanisms could be heard and one would notice that one of Kaelmourn's hand crossbows was now unholstered and laid firmly in his grip. A silent, simple message.

Oirendial sat with her back against the tree. She found no shame in running from the triceratops, staying alive had ben her goal, perhaps get stronger. But this was not possible is you got trampled into the ground. Kaelmourn was obviously troubled by the fact that they had to back out, away from the triceratops. She would ask him if he neede healing later, but for now it seemed he was venting anger through arrows, and she did not want to become the target if she said something wrong.
On the other side of her was Drugo. He was crying and yelling in anger, she had never seen him like this, nor had she expected to. But then again, he was one of honor and she could understand that he was hurt deep. Perhaps she could help him. She stood up and walked over to drugo, who was now on hands and knees in the mud, shaking and screaming out. As she got close she put a hand on his shoulder.
"I can't pretend to know what you feel right now, but whatever it is, it is not right. None of us were strong enough to take on that beast, and there is no honor in mindlessly diving into your death. We made the right choice, the ONLY choice we could make."

- 'Least we didn't leave our teeth there. Much worse a fate could've awaited us. - He said, as he sat under a tree where he hoarded a tree trunk before to sit on something, relatively far from the group. Wet fur doesn't have a pleasant smell after all. He then searched through his bag for some eats... some bread, cheese, and wine. Cheap wine. Vez slowly started to tear crumbs out of the bread, helping it down with the wine he has, making him grimace at the terrible vinegary taste of it.

Drugo didn't seem keen to answering in this state of mind, so Oirendial did the only thing she could do that she thought would help. She walked to the middle of the open space they made their camp in and raised her head to the sky, rain still drenching down upon her.
The world seems dark All laughter died No happy spark When creatures cried
But change will come The light ignites It'll chase the glum Raise spirits up to unknown heights
So raise your head Fight on brave knight Fearless tread Walk to the light
We are the sparks to bring the light The freedom harks And awaits our glorious might
She let the last note tremble in the air as long as she could before she walked into the forest, climbed a tree and nestled against the trunk, reasonably well covered from the rain.

Drugo started to calm down. He crawled back to the tree and sat back down. He was starting to feel chill, as his wet suit was being cooled down by the light breeze. The horse came up to him and dropped his helmet and sat down next to the tree. Drugo picked it up and looked at it again. But, when he was finished looking at it he settled it down to his side. He decided it was time to be put in a state of relaxation. He crossed his legs, feeling his quick heartbeat, he started to slow his breathing making long inhales and quick exhales. He put his hands on his thighs and leaned a bit forward. He now has put himself in a state of meditation. To help think of other things. He was not angry anymore, he is now relaxed and calm. Trying not to let his anger control him, or throw him into the darkness of his mind.

Wyatt knew taking the silence as a no left with the kitten ,he was just happy kaelmourne didn't turn and use him as a target dummy.the kitten looked a Wyatt and gave a sad meow.Wyatt had found the kitten during the fight with scorpion under the body of a dead adult panther,judging from the wounds it was safe to say it was the scorpions work.
"there, there little guy you can stay with me"
the kitten gave a purr.

"If the kitten is wounded, bring her to me, i can heal her." It wasn't a question, no order, just a simple statement. She could heal up the kitten without any issues. Oirendial's mind was clear now. As always, her mothers song had calmed her mind. She kept hearing her mother sing the song everytime over and over again. She did miss her mother.

The kitten didn't seem injured but there was no harm in making sure,Wyatt handed the kitten over to the witch.
"don't let Kaelmourne see you I don't think he'd be happy about you using your healing spells so freely."Wyatt whispered to the witch

"My spells are my own, i do not walk under his banner" she said as she healed the kitten. "How come you're not upset by the fact that we had to run away. The other two seem to be taking it rather bad." she nodded at Drugo an Kaelmourn. In fact, she had never seen him in a mood other then cheery. She admired that in him

"I've been running away from stronger opponents since I can remember,I don't see any point into rushing into death just to have the bards sing songs of your bravery." Wyatt said as he looked use her magic on the kitten. "I'd much rather have a song about how I grew old and fat with my family" he said with a chuckle.

"i'm afraid i don't understand. You chose to be a ranger, you knew that there would be a lot of dangers involved with that. But your wish is to be with a family and grow old? then why did you not stay in a town, find someone you like and grow old with them as a shopkeep or a barkeep? I do not wish to offend you, I'm just curious."

"I didn't really have much choice in the matter,growing up it was just me and my mum. she had an elf friend offered to teach me how to hunt,this was also the same person who taught me that there was no shame in running away from a stronger foe and ever since then I've pretty much been a ranger. but don't let my words confuse you when I speak of families I speak of the far future when my sight is not a sure."

"So you were trained by an elf, So thats where you gained your proficiency."Oirendial was glad to hear that, she knew elves were generally better at these things then humans were. "Do your people sing songs? I've found them to be more effective then normal words to convey feelings."
