The Ward's Guard

Jane gave the leopard amal a glare, and she acts as if she doesn't notice Chorale. "Yes Concerto, most of the town has been the same, that is, until some new woman came to town and stirred things up. The Fire-eyed mercenary I mentioned yesterday acts as if he wants to work with this new woman, despite not getting paid. There's another woman in one of the Inns, she also seemed interested in working with this newcomer, but I'm not sure how committed she is. I found an amal that was mistreated by this new woman, I hope to influence her to fight against the humans."

Jane tries to dart out of the way, but is caught by the leopard. She struggles for a brief second before realizing that she can't do anything. She panics for a few seconds before managing to speak past the leopard holding her neck. She tries to hide her fear, but fails quite miserably. "I'd appreciate it if I could report to Concerto without fearing for my life."

Jane used her fox ears to sense the tremors in the ground, something faint, but she couldn't quite make it out. They stopped talking, and the fox within her screamed for her to run, something was terribly wrong. She needed to move, to do something. But she couldn't leave without answers. She stood up, and walked into the cave. "Concerto, sir, I wish to report on the status of the settlement, and any who might be a threat in it."

Jane made her approach to the second place that she suspected that Concerto be. With the the other one being deserted, this was the only other place that she could think of that Concerto would be. She needed to know more. A sister? Now? Jane wanted answers, and if she wanted answers, he needed them. She heard voices as she approached the cave's entrance, she stopped just outside of the cave entrance, it was better to hear from outside before going in. So she listened and waited.

Ros bows his head to Crescendo briefly and returns her smile with a weak one before he made his way to the kitchen.

Ros looked up as Crescendo left, he took on a nervous look until Crescendo came back, after which he adopted an embarrassed look. He then took the opportunity to pick up his plate and utensils and head for the kitchen.

Ros looks up when Selia enters the room, he gave a slight bow of his head before returning to his thoughts, looking quite perplexed.

Ros ate slowly until he couldn't eat anymore. He pushed the plate away and sat at the table for a while, simply thinking.

Ros makes his way into the eating hall, looking as if he wasn't able to get much sleep. He gets what food he can, and then sits down near enough to watch and listen, but far enough that he believes that he won't be noticed before eating.

A man stood near his window on the second floor of his Inn, listening as the alarm bells rang of danger that approached the town. He couldn't suppress a smile as his informant's information proved true. Now if only she could make a habit of it. The man quickly made his way out of his room, finding a woman with fox ears making her way towards his door. His brow furrowed as he regarded the woman before speaking. "I'm going to assume that you are going deaf, as the alarm is sounding, and here you are making your way towards my room instead of doing what you were told to do." The woman quickened her pace towards him. "This is important sir, you see-" "I have told you what your priorities should be at this moment, and I don't like having my advice blatantly ignored. You need to act now if it's going to work. Whatever it is that you want to share with me can wait until after. You have shown yourself to be effective so far tonight, try not to ruin it." The woman opened her mouth to speak, then closed it. She spun around and ran down the stairs with a new purpose. After watching her leave, the man made his way back into his room before sitting down. Undoubtedly what she had was important, but it would have to wait. Tonight was too good of an opportunity, and he didn't intend to let it pass him by.

Ros nods before heading off to his room. "Yes madam Selia, if you think that'd be best."

Ros dashes after her, seemingly pleased to be leaving the basement. "I thought that would have been far more climatic madam Selia."

Ros looks concerned at these comments, but refrains from questioning it. "May I suggest that we lay in hiding for a short time madam. I can walk out and check if it's clear in a few moments."

Ros resists at first, but then he decides to run after Selia. He then takes on a concerned tone. "Shouldn't we be running back upstairs madam Selia?"

Ros turns to watch the entrance to the basement while he's next to Selia's side. "Then perhaps we should finish faster madam. I believe that we shouldn't try our luck."

Ros stood at the entrance to the basement, he tried to listen to hear if anyone would come down after them. Ros then sighed and walked after Selia. Ros then whispers to Selia in an attempt to keep his voice down. "This all seems rather mundane madam, I thought by how you were speaking that there's be more down here."

Jane believed that she heard all that she needed. She dashed back around the Inn and transformed. She felt all of her senses change, her sense of smell heightened, and as she ran, she leaned forward and went to all fours, the familiar feeling of just how natural it was to run like this. She may have been small, but that only aided her speed. She knew where she had to go, and who she had to tell about this. This sounded important, and he likes to know what's important.

From behind the corner of the Inn, just out of sight, Jane nearly makes the decision that this discussion is not worth listening to, but then her ears perked up at the mention of Concerto, and the relation between Chorale and Concerto, she then decided to hear this whole conversation out.
