Neferox just glares but seems satisfied that he used her full name. She continues to glare at him menacingly. Almost as if she's trying to see if she can make him nervous.
As he looks at Bry'ze and makes some comments to Vin about the broom Vin says "Yes, Flight. It also seems to have a bit of a mind of it's own on some level. So, I'd hate to see it break apart. I understand you might not be able to do it now. Could it be inspected and I get an estimate of costs and time for repairing it by this evening or tomorrow? Whether you get the position here or not I am still like to pay for this work."
Sam looks between Gewyn and Hog several times, his mouth ajar. Finally, after gathering his thoughts together, he asks Hog "So why exactly are you wanting to move in to a house where your mates will lie to your face and tell you not to believe your own eyes?"
It takes an awkward moment for Hog to understand what Gewyn is asking of him, befor he grins in realisation, "ohhhh oh yeah I see, yeah I saw nothin' and I ain't lying, yeah? Technically true because it's not there! See! Ha! We all got some kinda secrets Sam secrets that even yer mates ain't entitled to, but if you find out one of them then keeping that secret is what mates is all about, right?" He looks awkwardly from Sam to Elthana to see if she is satisfied by his excuse.
Turning the broom over in his hand he takes a final look before handing it back to vin, "Ill attune to me eyes when we're finished with the demonstration and then I'll be able give ya a quote yeah?" Hog stands up and stretches, "right! Who wants to come outside and fight me? I'll show you what my items can do! The only way to know for sure is to experience them. Right?"
Vin says "I'll watch. If that's okay. Unless you need someone that specializes in magic to demonstrate something?" Nef glares even harder at Hog, clearly not liking the idea Vin fights them. Vin looks to the black hound and frowns as he then adds "Maybe just watch." he seems almost disappointed to not get to have a sparing match.
“You sure about that, Hog? I always figured that if I’m trusting someone to have my back when everything is on the line that maybe they should trust me a bit too,” Sam answers the Goliath.
“But if you need a sparring partner I’d say Gewyn is your man,” Sam says with a wry smirk. “He’s experience attacking the rest of us already…”
"I'd say needing to know all of your mates secrets displays a lack of trust, y'know. If you really trusted them you'd trust them to come to you if things were going sideways, and you'd trust them not to put you in unnecessary danger, like yeah sure if they betray that trust with a secret then that ain't good like. Any of you can fight, just s friendly match yeah? Gewyn? -oh are you ok there? There's tea everywhere, you got like a cloth or something?" Hog stands, reflexively ducking as to not hit his head on the ceiling as he frantically looks around for a cloth but finds none in his immediate vicinity.
Elthana glares at Gewyn for a moment, unsure what to think and feeling hurt that this is how they found out about well, apparently nothing. It wasn't Hog's fault and she wasn't about to pin that on him.
Under her breath she says to Gewyn, "We're going to talk about this later."
She then turns to Hog, cracking her neck trying to loosen up after all the talking, "I'll fight you."
"uhhh what's a Marzana? Any way, we should go outside, and lat out some ground rules, I ain't no beast that you'll find out adventuring so I'm not gonna try to kill ya, I'd appreciate you not trying the same, by all means don't hold back but y'know I'd like to walk outta here alive haha, second it's an item demonstration so I ain't gonna be using spells or anything just items, the three I've got attuned are a cloak this staff and these bracers, you won't see what the cloak does but the staff is for power and the bracers for defence. I've got a few other tricks up ny sleeves but they're non-attuned items. I ain't gonna hold you to the same no spells rule that'd be pointless. And anyone else feel free to join in yeah?"
As you lead hog outside it's still morning, the sun is out blurred by the winter clouds over head and subzero temperatures has been keeping the snow away for the night. Hog stretches, and grins "I've not had a good test of the staff so this should be fun, and I've not fought in a while so I've been looking forward to this."
"This should be fun to watch," Sam says with a gruff as he leads the way to the side yard and walks to the center of the house's yard. "Places all... When you two are ready just nod... I'll say 'Go' and get out of your way..." And with that Sam will wait for everyone to take their places - Elthana to one end, Hog on the other, and spectators (including critters - visible ones at least) safely out of the way. Then he will wait for the nods...
As the group stands by the stables, giving Hog and Elthana room to move around, the pair stand facing eachother at 20ft. Hog gives Sam a smile and a nod, and then pulls up the cloak on his hood. Hog simply disappears in place. Leaving Elthana standing alone prepared to fight her invisible foe.
"I haven't even said go yet!" Sam complains to the both of them but shrugs and steps back out of the way,
"Hard to see a good fight when you can't even see the fight though," Sam grumbles while crouching down to put a hand on both the goat and the mastiff he has drawn this day...
Elthana keeping a close eye on the snowy ground can see exactly where hig was and guessed that he hasn't moved, she lands a solid hit on the invisible Goliath but misses her second strike.
All of a sudden the snow starts to kick up around her blowing from where she is facing and being thrown by a gale force wind over toward the building, Elthana stands string against the gust of wind (rolled 19 on her STR save) but the footprints in the snow and the snow itself get hurled from the ground, further concealing the Goliath.
Neferox just glares but seems satisfied that he used her full name. She continues to glare at him menacingly. Almost as if she's trying to see if she can make him nervous.

Sam looks between Gewyn and Hog several times, his mouth ajar. Finally, after gathering his thoughts together, he asks Hog "So why exactly are you wanting to move in to a house where your mates will lie to your face and tell you not to believe your own eyes?"
Muir sips his tea and stares at Gewyn wondering how long he’s had this invisible creature. How much has the creature spied on the others Muir wonders.
It takes an awkward moment for Hog to understand what Gewyn is asking of him, befor he grins in realisation, "ohhhh oh yeah I see, yeah I saw nothin' and I ain't lying, yeah? Technically true because it's not there! See! Ha!

Muir looks at Sam while continuing to sip his tea "Mm delicious"
Vin says "I'll watch. If that's okay. Unless you need someone that specializes in magic to demonstrate something?" Nef glares even harder at Hog, clearly not liking the idea Vin fights them.

“But if you need a sparring partner I’d say Gewyn is your man,” Sam says with a wry smirk. “He’s experience attacking the rest of us already…”
Muir spits out his tea a little "Oh look at the mess I made....I must have hit a hot patch of tea"
"I'd say needing to know all of your mates secrets displays a lack of trust, y'know. If you really trusted them you'd trust them to come to you if things were going sideways, and you'd trust them not to put you in unnecessary danger, like yeah sure if they betray that trust with a secret then that ain't good like.

She then turns to Hog, cracking her neck trying to loosen up after all the talking, "I'll fight you."
“Yeahhhh… So trust is just a one way street for you then, huh Hog? Adventuring advice from the stay home Goliath… “ Sam says with a roll of his eyes.
“I vote Marzana.”
Gewyn smiles sweetly at Elthana. "Sure. Talk later." Then he turns to Hog and says, "Let's see how he fights first."
"uhhh what's a Marzana? Any way, we should go outside, and lat out some ground rules, I ain't no beast that you'll find out adventuring so I'm not gonna try to kill ya, I'd appreciate you not trying the same, by all means don't hold back but y'know I'd like to walk outta here alive haha, second it's an item demonstration so I ain't gonna be using spells or anything just items, the three I've got attuned are a cloak this staff and these bracers, you won't see what the cloak does but the staff is for power and the bracers for defence.

Muir grumbles about not having popped corn for the entertainment and makes note to get some corn. He sits on a stump and waits for it to begin
Gewyn stands to the side and starts to play a playful battle-tune on his pipes to set the mood.
As the group stands by the stables, giving Hog and Elthana room to move around, the pair stand facing eachother at 20ft. Hog gives Sam a smile and a nod, and then pulls up the cloak on his hood. Hog simply disappears in place. Leaving Elthana standing alone prepared to fight her invisible foe.
Elthana smirks. “So that’s how you want to play it”
Running up to where Hog was just seen, She strikes out with her fists, if he’s there, 10 dam, and then uses patient defense and dodge using a ki point
"I haven't even said go yet!" Sam complains to the both of them but shrugs and steps back out of the way,
"Hard to see a good fight when you can't even see the fight though," Sam grumbles while crouching down to put a hand on both the goat and the mastiff he has drawn this day...
