Kora will hear in her head, "I don't know this woman. Ask Perci or Sylrie if they recognize her, please?"

Aria nods, relaxing infinitesmally as Misq confirms his identity. "I'm alone, other than Sivi and Feather. And as for what I'm doing..." Her lips thin, her face growing serious. "I'm based in Delthorn, but I'm bringing orders for the Lieutenant. From the Crown." She removes a sealed set of papers from her saddlebag. "We need to get to Gregorsin, now, Sergeant."

"Oh you mean THAT Misq......" you hear Buttons say in the background

"You have orders, do ye? Let me see them then, if what you say is true then we must not waste time!" Sarge stands up straighter when she mentions the Crown.

Aria frowns. "They're specifically for Lieutenant Winehand. Should she choose to share them with you, that is her prerogative, but I have specific orders to give them to her, I'm afraid." She glances towards where the LT's voice came from.

With a heavy breath, Sarge walks over to Aria, "Well, let's go, lass. Ye want to see Dot, m'lady, come with me."

Sarge will stand at her side and ready himself to escort her into the trees. 

Aria sighs and gives Feather a pat, switching to Sylvan.

Anyone who understands Sylvan:

Without further ado, she places Sivi onto her shoulder and swings down from the pegasus, bow still in hand and nocked. "Lead the way, sir." She follows him into the trees, mentally marking down which members of Greywind she's seen so far and which ones likely remain hidden in the trees.

As she passes Kash, Buttons will bow their head 'M'lady...." 

As you walk in the trees, you'll see some hidden faces covered by the darkness and the trees. Once you get to a large tree, a gnome woman will drop down from the branches above and land at your feet. "Well, where is it? And since when did Vadalis start sending messengers?"

Sylrie flashes Lady Aria a slight grin as Sarge leads her off, he pondered who the Keith was she had mentioned as she spoke to her mount, such an odd name, Keith. He then followed behind, giving a slight nod to the Pegasus. His hand rested on his Rapier, keeping up the mercenary persona for any eyes that may be watching.

Percival grins and also wonders about the Keith figure that Aria spoke of.

Aria nods and hands Dot the orders. "I'm not a messenger, I'm a guide, Lieutenant," she explains with a faint smile. "We're worried Gregorsin has fallen completely to the Ashbound." Her face twists briefly in disgust at the mention of the extremist order. "And I know just about every farmer and rancher in the lower Reaches from my work, not to mention that I think they may be stealing the cattle in Delthorn. So I'm here to help, both because of orders and because I want these Ashbound out of the Reaches. Preferably before the...meaningful silence from Greenheart stretches on much longer."

Kora will slip out of concealment to stand uncomfortably close to Aria and her monkey, hand on her sword hilt. In LT's head << Ready if you need me, LT. >>

After looking over and then breaking the seal, LT reads over the orders the look on her face goes from blank to some concern as she reads. 

"I find some things odd. But you aren't one of them, girl." She says after a moment of silence. "At ease, Greywind. She speaks the truth. Sergeant, a word, please? Lady d'Valdalis, please come with us." 

"Camp needs to be established, recon the cave and set up camp there." Sarge gives the order and follows LT towards the road where the pegasus is. 

"You truly are a loyal servant to the Crown and Greywind, Kora." Kora will hear in her head as LT walks away. 

"Just Aria. Out here, titles don't matter much beyond necessity to get...certain groups to listen," Aria says softly, giving Kora a brief nod before following LT and Sarge.

Kash puts Buttons back on his belt and goes to clear the cave of critters, beasties and other naturally crawly things 

#firebolt! #firebolt! #firebolt!

Sylrie watches the LT lead Aria away and shrugs, he then joins Kash as he heads towards the cave. "I should scout ahead, I can move through the cave without a torch or light"

Kora relaxes and goes about the duties of setting up camp, and lets her mind link with LT expire (its range is only 30' anyway). She'll see to the horses, laugh as Kash probably gets spooked by some rat in the cave, and keep an eye out in the surrounding countryside. She'll also take an interest in Feathers, approaching to see if the flying horse is friendly, and if so, attempt to lead it into camp with the other horses.

As they pass Feather, Aria nods at the pegasus and murmurs something quickly in Sylvan.

Sylvan:
