Alia tsks and shakes her head. "I know malnutrition when I see it, although I'm not accustomed to seeing it within sight of land, never mind on it. When was the last time you ate or drank something?" The young woman gives Camilla a piercing look made all the more so by the electricity crackling in her blue eyes.
Fauna studies Camilla for a moment before stepping a little closer, her hooves clicking slightly on the path. "Do you need help walking Miss...? At least until we get to a more stable place for you to... rest?" She offers Camilla a smile and kneels on her front hooves slightly, offering Camilla the ability to hold onto her back and help her stand.

"It's been a while."Camilla said to Alia, trying to get up. "I'm uh.."she was trying to think of some sort of lie to come up with when the centaur slowly approached her. Camilla understood the gesture and took it, standing back up again. "Thanks."she said to Fauna. "Sorry. I mistook you all for bandits, or something."she lied again. "I wasn't expecting the help. So, thank you. All of you. I'm Camilla."
Fauna nods and smiles, allowing Camilla to lean on her deer torso if she needed. "I took no offense. I'm used to the skepticism. Being the way I am and all. But can I ask Miss Camilla, Why were you out here if you were in this condition? It definantly doesnt seem the safest place to nap."
Her ears twitched on occasion in thought and she occasionally adjusted her stance on the slightly uneven path, moving to grab her pack and fetch her water canteen, offering it to Camilla.

Camilla laughed nervously, thinking for a moment of something to say. She took the canteen. "Thanks. Well, I was hoping there might be a..some sort of town this way. I decided to take a chance, find a random path, and..take my chances. Yeah."she smiled. "So." she addressed everyone. "Are you all going somewhere? Is there indeed something this way?"
"I'm headed to Winterhaven and while I'm not completely sure of everyone else, I assume that they're headed there as well, since we're all going the same direction on the same road."

"Winterhaven.."Camilla nodded. "So there is civilization here, interesting. Thank you for helping me before."Camilla smiled to Belial, adjusting her robe. "Hopefully, they have a bath."
Lucina nods over what Belial said. "I believe that is the case, yes. We are all headed to Winterhaven." The blood hunter looks over the rest of the group, trying to get a read on them. "...Perhaps it is fate that brought us together? My mother taught me that travelling in a group is far better than travelling alone." She gestures over to Camilla, considering her situation, it was a good example. "Shall we continue? Do you require more aid? Er, aside the bath...?"

Fauna nods in agrreance to Belial about Winterhaven. After a second she perks up at the mention of a bath but her eyebrows knit together slightly in thought. She seems to talk quietly to herself, her ears folded down in embarrassment. "I'm... Not used to being in big cities. Would I use one of those bathhouses or... Maybe the stables? How does that work?"

Alia nods. "My brother and I are headed to Winterhaven as well," she confirms, smiling at Caim for a moment. "We're looking for a Parle Cranewing guy. Anyway, I think we'd be all right with traveling with you guys. And Fauna, I'm sure you could use whichever accomodations you wanted."
"Your mother sounds like a wise woman indeed."Camilla admits to Lucina, then noticed that her robes were once again pristine. "That's a neat trick, always loved that spell. Should learn it one day."she said the Belial, grateful for the cleaning. She then turned to Fauna. "Por que no los dos?"she said, laughing, as if revealing an inside secret.
She cleared her throat and then thought of a crazy idea. "Well. Since we all appear to be heading the same way. Perhaps we could all go together?"
Fauna nods to Alia, an embarrassed smile on her face. When Camilla speaks to her in a strange language, Fauna pauses, eyeing her curiously before laughing a little nervously. "I'm sorry Miss Camilla, but I have no idea what you just said." She offers Camilla an apologetic smile before looking to Lucina. "I'm ready to continue forward Miss Lucina as long as the others are."

"She is," Lucina says with a small smile before looking to Fauna briefly, giving her a curt bow and turning to the others. "Then let us get going. If any of you feel tired then please don't hesitate in letting us know you need a break."

ON THE WAY TO WINTERHAVEN PART ONE - KOBOLD BRIGANDS
Camilla, mostly relived you all didn't murder her, was pleasant and became very interested in everyone, as if long ago, she was once too, part of an adventuring company. The wind was cool and comfortable. As you traveled, you all got to know each other a little bit better. The road beneath your feet was level. An occasional ancient cobblestone peeked through the dirt road, indicating decades of neglect. You soon noticed footprints leading up and down the road, many of which were made by small, clawed feet. Suddenly, as if confident to attack you without surprise, small creatures hiding behind the rocks sprung into view and began to move toward you. With a shriek, the small humanoids rushed to attack! Scaled and rust-colored, they have reptilian heads and tails. Camilla groans loudly, as if recognizing something.
"Kobolds? Again?" she whines, as if the beginning of a similar adventure had begun the same way.
AREA FEATURES: It is daytime. The road is made of dirt, crushed rock, and occasional loose bits of ancient cobblestone from the original roadbed. No movement penalties while on the road or grass. Scattered boulders sit along the side of the road. They provide concealment and possible 3/4th cover (+5 to AC) for creatures hiding behind them. The boulders are 5 feet high. Climbing onto the boulders requires a DC15 Athletics check. Thick foliage grows near the road in several places, providing cover for those attacking from or into the area.
"So early too..." Lucina chides quietly as she unsheathes her sword from her holster, allowing the blade to glide against her thigh to draw blood. Not a moment later did her blade crackle and pop, blue lightning now surrounding her weapon.

"In and out, battle is a gamble, so go have some fun," Alia reminds herself softly, the lightning in her eyes intensifying. "Thanks, Mom. Find cover, battle is dangerous, so be careful. Thanks, Dad."

Fauna looks over the Kobolds with an unamused look. "Oh. These guys. Always causing trouble when they shouldn't be. Always pestering my village..."
Fauna appears to be getting mad at the thought, drawing the great axe from her shoulders. (BA: Rage)
