"One of those kinds of days?"

[Nathrangking he/him]

I follow the others to the hut. I gather together the bits of firewood into a tight formation and pour heat into it until there is a crackling fire going. I then settle down on the ground.

"Yeah. Hordes of batthings, then holed, superpowered people. She got mind controlled a few times, helped battle a near-invincible person, and flew through space. We've all been up for a while." Ember responds, settling down against the wall.

"We have had many adventures in so short a time. We have also made many friends along the way. Things have been interesting to say the least."

[Negative_Null They/Them]

"Sounds like my kind of party. You have a plan for here on out?"

Fadran nods, melancholy. He doesn't partake in the seating around the fire, choosing to seclude himself from the others. He watches them relax, though: had they all really come so far?

Vale notes Fadran being reclusive. He'll help him out later. For now he tries to engage everyone else in a conversation, or at least make them all comfortable.

"Or are you all just headed wherever life takes you right now?"

"A little bit of both I think. We seek to adventure, but we are uncertain what the future golds for us." I rise and make my way over to Fadran I sit beside him. "We have both lost this day. Seclusion will be our downfall. When you are ready I'm here." I rise and return to the fire. @Channelknight Fadran

"I'm not distancing myself from you guys." He replies before Nath leaves. "I just need time to think."

[KyL]

"Hey, Fadran, can I sit by you?" asks the knight of treachery, walking over to the... pondering figure.

"I don't really know anyone here, and I don't think those I've met like me too much."

“That might be because,” Fadran replies, “you tried to murder us.”

[Negative_Null They/Them]

"That does tend to put a damper on relationships. Like mind control. Or temporal distortions. Oh, speaking of mind control, is that the problem here?"

[KyL]

"Yeah, yeah. I thought You (@Channelknight Fadran) of all people would understand, but eh whatever.. I'm just gonna pretend you said 'yes' though.."

"I do understand." Fadran replied. "Well... I'll say I do, anyways."

"Mm. I did that often, back when I was alive."

[Mist she/her]

"What do you mean, the problem here? We've had a bit of a run in with it, but not most of us. Actually, she's the only one left who got mind controlled. The other one ... died." Eric's death begins to sink in.

I dunno what you were responding to when you said this, but if it was to Mordred's attempted homicide, it was because she was angry at being summoned (she just has anger issues)

"Oh, someone died? I'm sorry, everyone. I was asking if that's why she (Mordred) tried to murder people."

“It means exactly that. I am really just a spirit, Herate woke when she summoned me. Her catalyst (a shard of the weapon that killed me in life, I believe) along with her magic created my body and her will bound me to this world. I dunno if that makes sense, there’s a few more minor details but those just make explaining more complicated, so I’ll leave them out. But yeah, that’s pretty much it.”

Fadran thinks for a second, then nods. "Alright. You want to be a part of the group? I can help you with that." He stands up, leading Kyl to the circle of Fellowship members sitting around a fire.

"Everyone," he says, "this is Kyl. She (she, right?) is the newest member of our group. You may be hesitant about letting her join because she tried to kill Herate, but a lot of us joined this trying to kill someone or the other, so..."

[Mist she/her]

"I'll be keeping an eye on Mordred, but she's free to join," says Ember.

"She is welcome to sit by the fire. However, she must earn the right to be called one of us." I fix Kyl in my gaze for a moment, before gazing back into the flames.
