'That's too bad',Isilwen thought about the goblins. If there where some, it would give them something else to do other than listen to incessant prattling of the kender. The mage threw back her hood, allowing her long red hair to cascade down her shoulders, and took a deep breath of the night air. Being an elf, she loved walking in the woods. Pausing for a moment she closed her eyes and took in her surroundings. She listened as an owl called to his fellow, and with her accute hearing she heard a fox padding though the under growth. She then opened her eyes and continued walking. Though the knight irrated her, she spoke to him rather than the kender, who irrated her far worse. "Do you know how much further Solace is? It's been awhile since I last traveled this way."

OOC: WOW YOU GUYS REALLY GOT A MOVE ON!!!
IC: Drezden started walking when the others did, and easily kept up. He had to shorten his strides so that he would get ahead of them all. He also continued to walk with Isilwen, she had moved to stand next to him when they were ready to go. Drezden was sure that Sturm would be watching to see what would happen.
"A black mage and a minotaur talking together, I must keep an active watch." That sounded like something Sturm would be thinking, even if Drezden didn't know him at all.
While they walked Drezden waited for Isilwen to start talking. If she had intentionally moved toward him, then maybe she wanted to talk.

Isilwen looked over at Drezden as they walked. The minotaur had slowed his pace to walk beside her. "I suppose you are wondering why an elf would keep company with a minotaur?", she asked eyeing him. Not waiting for an answer she continued. "Curiosity mainly. What is a lone minotaur doing this far away from his homeland?"

Sturm looked over at Isilwen. "Not much." He kept quiet as the minotaur caught up with them and started talking to the mage, whom he now knew was an elf. An elven woman with black robes? From what he knew of elves, most of them would not even dream of donning the black robes of evil. The knight kept a watchful eye on the two (trusting Rose keep the kender occupied) as he walked.

"My family has a tradition, each generation brings some kind of honor to it. It is now my turn to do the same. I've been traveling around this land for years now and I haven't done what I've come to do." Drezden looked around as he was talking and thought he saw Sturm looking back at them.
Let him look, we're not doing anything.
"What are you doing around here?", he asked

"I see.", she said thoughtfully. After a few moments of silence,and a glance at Sturm, Isilwen answered his question. "I was gathering herbs. The ones that I was after are unique to this area. That and, as I mentioned earlier, I need to speek with someone in Solace."

"So you've been to Solace before?", It seemed like a logical conclusion to Drezden. "What is it like?"
Drezden thought it was best to know where he was going before he got there.

Isilwen nodded her head. "Yes, I have been there before, many moons ago. The town is deffinately unique, something I doubt a minotaur would have even laid eyes upon.", she said with a small smile. The mage paused for a moment to let Drezden mull over what she could possibly mean. "Most all of the buildings are in the limbs of gigantic trees.", she said with a flourish of her slender hands.

Tasslehoff had managed to remain silent for several long moments before he suddenly blurted, "Vallenwoods! I love vallenwoods! All of the buildings are in the branches of vallenwood trees. It really is a wonderful sight. Do you like Solace? I love Solace. It's such a nice town; almost as nice as Kendermore, except there aren't many kender in Solace. Who do you need to speak to in Solace? I know everyone. Well, almost everyone. All of the townspeople go to the Inn of the Last Home, so I've met some strange people. Mages come there all the time, and so do knights, and farmers. I'm sure you'll like it there, Drezden. It's amazing! Maybe you can stay at the Inn of the Last Home for a while. I'm sure Otik wouldn't mind having a minotaur as a guest." Tas clapped his hands together. "It'll be fun! You can meet all of my friends!"

"Just someone.", the mage growled. She did not like revealing her business to people. Especially people she had only known for a matter of minutes. "I hope they have wine at the Inn.", Isilwen muttered. She pulled her hood back over her head as they walked.

"Of course they have wine at the inn! They have everything there." Tas said in his high pitched voice. "How long are you going to be staying? I hope you stay a while. I'm going to stay a long time. We're friends, after all. Have you ever drank dwarf spirits? I haven't, but I've always wanted to try. It would be fun. Oh, I would only drink one mug, of course, but still. I don't think Otik would even let a kender order dwarf spirits. Maybe if I ask him in a really pleading voice. Could you ask him for me? I'm sure he'd let you. Have you ever seen a bat?"

Isilwen rolled her eyes when Tas answered her comment about the wine. She hadn't meant for it to be answered. "I will hopefully be staying no longer than I have to.", she said irritably. The elf then raised an eyebrow. "I will not buy you dwarf spirts. I don't want to held responsible for an inebriated kender." "Nor do I want to put up with said inebriated kender.", she mutter to herself. She then cast a not so nice smirk at Tas. "Yes, I've seen a bat. I've popped the eyes and wings off of many for my spell components."

I knew it, Sturm thought to himself. Though he was no expert on magic - from what he did know they would probably use all sorts of things for their spell components. He was relieved to hear that the mage wouldn't be staying long. Now that he thought about it... What would his friends say when they saw this group? It wasn't exactly something one saw everyday.

Tasslehoff's smile widened. "Really?" He asked. "You've really popped eyes and wings off of bats? What's it like? What kind of spells do you use with them? Can you show me sometime? I'm so sad that you won't be staying very long. I was really looking forward to watching you do magic. Could you do something magical to me before you leave? I don't think being turned into a bat would be much fun, now that I think of it. Could you turn me into a rabbit instead? I'm sure that would be interesting!" Tas seemed to be thinking the same thing as Sturm, for he said, "I wonder what everyone at the inn will think when they meet you. It's not ever day that you see a unicorn, a minotaur, a mage, a knight, and a kender all in the same traveling group."

The mage once again rolled her eyes. For every answer that she gave, Tas had five more questions! Though this was not unexpected, since kender seemed to attach themselves to her like some kind odd plague, it was still begining to grate on her neves. "Magicing you out into the middle of the lake would be ammusing.", Isilwen said a smile tugging on her thin lips. "As to what you're friends will think; I don't know them but I would think that they would be rather concerned about the presence a Black Robed Mage." "That is unless, they all like mages as well as you two.", she said sarcasticly. Even though she didn't turn to look, she knew that Sturm had probably stiffened at that comment.
