"My recommendation to you, is that you go tell your people not to try that shit aga-" she catches herself, and turns away. "Do whatever you want." She says after a brief pause, looking over the jungle.
You just see one of her cat like ears twitch a little in your direction.
As you guys walk down the stairs, you see a broad chested guard with similar war paint to Katerin. None of the other guards seem to have this paint, at least to this amount.
"Oh don't worry about her." He says to Liam, Crispy and Chubby. "However I do recommend you don't stay in this jungle overnight. My name's Reginald and I'd be happy to supply you all with mounts in order to take you back to the village asap." He says with a charismatic smile.
(Sorry I missed that post. Yeah, Reggie definitely popped his head up. It seems as though, as Katerin's second, he manages her a fair bit.)
"She doesn't really mean it Mr Ulrich." He says sinceerly. "I think this resurgence of the Yuan-ti, who erased her Tabaxi folk on this island, has sparked some emotion in the commander. I am sure she sees that you are different from the rest and will come around. I shall convey that for you, if you wish." He says, maintaining his smile and offers a deep bow, gesturing you away from Katerin.
Reginald laughs heartily. Something which kind of makes everyone else stop for a brief moment in this grim situation, before saying "Ahh, understood good sir. YOU, can have MY personal mount." He says, slapping Chubby on the shoulder.
Cerise smiled. "Sweetheart, your friends are getting ready to leave. I will have to go also, but fear not, now that my Mistress has gifted you with the knowledge of that spell you can call on me whenever you wish. Tell sweet Cora that I will relay her bargain to our Queen." Nia nodded, promising to do so, and mother and daughter held hands until Cerise dissipated into motes of scarlet light and finally disappeared.
Nia got back up to the others. "Okay, What's the plan?" She asked with a bright smile.
"I think we're about to head out on these large forest mount like creatures. And not a moment too soon, I need a bath." Crispy said, sniffing herself. She then looked out towards the temple again, noticing Cerise was gone. "Wow, your mom is cool. I wish my mom was a succubus. Or..that..I had one.." She mumbled sadly the last part, looking at Nia quickly, winking.
Crispy gives Chubby a playful glare. One that specifically said, "Oh for ****s sake, really?" She then pats him on the back and mounts up. "Lets go back to the village, everyone."
Reginald walks you out of the temple to a short distance in the jungle. You see Katerin’s dire wolf standing watch over a number of other sizeable wolfs with riding gear equipped. Reginald looks at Chubby with a sparkle in his eye, and whistles sharply through his teeth as the others start mounting their wolf.
Crashing through the jungle and thumping of heavy feet can be heard from your left as a sizeable beast, clad in natural armour skids to a stop right next to a Reginald. “This, is for you my friend. I call her... Bessy.”
Chubby breaths in deeply, enjoying the rich leathery smell of the beast. A wide grin appears on his face, as he gleefully circles the thing, stroking its hard shell skin, and gently talking to it in a soothing voice.
Grabbing an apple from his pack, he hand feeds the juicy snack to the beast, and then ambles up the side of it and swings his legs over each side.
"Bessy the Beauty, and her faithful companion are ready!"
The blood covering Crispy combined with the heat of the jungle made her hair stick to her face and she ached to get out of her leathers and relax. Finally. She unlatched her jacket, and unbuckled her top, taking it off and setting it aside in her pack. She wanted to rip off her shirt and leap deep into the cool ocean, but figured she would have to wait until then.
"Can't WAIT to get back to the village." She said.
"My recommendation to you, is that you go tell your people not to try that shit aga-" she catches herself, and turns away. "Do whatever you want." She says after a brief pause, looking over the jungle.

"Boy, she's a peach." Crispy says to Liam as sarcastically as she can about Katerin.
Liam frowns.
"And just what do you mean by 'my people' exactly?"

(OOC: Liam wouldn't leave without getting some sort of verbal response from Katerin, unless Reginald actually came up top to fetch them.)
Chubby: "A gentlemen of my, errrrr, 'girth' would require a sturdy mount."
Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?

"Yeah, well, if she doesn't calm down i'm gonna spark my blade up her-" before Crispy could finish, Chubby covers her mouth.
Off to town then.
Cerise smiled. "Sweetheart, your friends are getting ready to leave.

Chubby: "Yeah! Your mom was HOT!" and then he chuckles at his own joke. Lame.

Crispys eyes widen to the size of dinner plates at Chubby’s good fortune. Nice!!

*montage* everyone leaping over fallen logs, darting through low hanging vines on the back of wolves as swift as the wind itself...
While Chubby rides wildly atop the bulette which simply rams through everything it comes in contact with.

Yes! Back to town, back to town!
Through the ride the others could hear Nia's jubilant cries of "Wooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooo!" from atop her mount.
