Saillune

[Carthrat]

"Right," says Kylen, standing up from the coffin. "How long until it sets-"

His elfin ears twitch at the noise..

"I hope it's not another bunch of vampire hunters," he grumbles. "How many were there?"

[Merc]

The werewolf recalls what it heard, then combined with the sounds upstairs which Kylen also hears approaching, replies, "Two, I think."

Meanwhile upstairs, the two girls see each other as they get closer to the center of the house, and can see both a stairway up to the second floor, the stair's wood a bit rotted and filled with dust, and a path down to the basement, the door halfway opened. Raquel manages to catch "...I think." coming from down there.

[Bean Bandit]

Raquel pauses as she catches a fragment of a sentence, and looks up, giving Caelena a quick smile and a 'stop' gesture, as she eases to the end of the pathway to the basement, listening carefully for whatever she can pick up.

[Carthrat]

"Right, right," murmurs Kylen, *quietly*. "Don't attack them until either I say, or I or they start fighting.

Or, of course, you truly think it's in my best intrests to attack them, but if I find out you were wrong.."

With that, Kylen drifts back and leans against the side wall, indicating that the werewolf should do the same against the opposite wall.

[Asrana]

Caelena nods, stopping and relaxing slightly, paying attion to the front end of the house, watching for anyone coming up behind her companion, and listening for any behind herself.

[Merc]

Caelena hears nothing approaching as Raquel attempts to eavesdrop on the two downstairs. Despite being closer to the door, Raquel finds herself not being able to hear the talk downstairs very well.

She catches pieces here and there, the end result being a fragmented, "Right...don't attack...art fighti...terests to attack...ere wrong."

After that she hears feet shuffling as the werewolf follows as his silent master commands and stations himself against the wall as well.

[Bean Bandit]

Raquel frowns as she can't hear clearly, the slight muffling of the words and the ominously clear parts suggesting that she should be careful.

She looks over at Caelena and makes an 'talk' gesture, then turns to the hallway.

"Ano...Excuse me? We've come to reclaim the horse. We'd rather not fight, but if you're really intent on it, we could forego peaceful discussions, sir." She calls loudly into the basement.

[Asrana]

Caelena nods, stepping up beside Raquel, quietly preparing a Freeze Bullet spell beneath her cloak.

Can never be too cautious with her...

[Carthrat]

"The horse? Well.. sure, I suppose. From the recently trashed villiage, right? Go ahead."

If Kylen still breathed, a sigh of relief would escape his lips.

[Bean Bandit]

Raquel shrugged to herself, and nodded, calling out one more time. "May we assume you still intend to relay the villiage's request for aid?" she added after a moment, glancing at Caelena.

[Carthrat]

"Definately, unless you'd do it for me?" replies Kylen, figuring he can save some time.

[Bean Bandit]

"Actually, we'd prefer to remain unnoticed." Raquel replied. "You delivering the message will be satisfactory. Thank you for your time." She finished, then looked to Caelena, raising her eyebrows. "Should we go?" she asked her, in normal tones.

[Carthrat]

Kylen blinks. Again. That was easy.

"Well, uh, thanks. I think," he replies, shrugging.

With that, he sits against the wall and waits for the sun to set..

[Asrana]

Caelena nods, releasing her hold on the magic.

"Yeah, our job's complete. Just need to take the horse to the merchant then...and see if we can get a job..."

[Bean Bandit]

Raquel nodded. "The letter should give us a head start there." she replies warmly. "You want to ride the horse?" she asks, grinning as they leave the house.
