Skorn took the Soul Gem in his fingers and looked at it for a moment before it started to glow.  After a few seconds, he gave off a light looking smirk before looking over to Tai "It seems as thought this one has chosen myself" he paused for a moment "I suppose I should thank you for the Soul Gem kid...."

Meanwhile, the Fur in question from earlier on, was still having a look around the marketplace, yet, still kept her eyes on the group as well, yet, she noticed another was also watching them, a Hare and decided to approach her and straight away, speak to her "You know them?" she asked her.

Willow looked at vixen who had spoken to her. Maybe she was a bit too obvious with observing that group of Summoners...

"No, I don't know them, but being Summoners they surely attract attention of those around" hare answered pointing to the people, who were throwing quick glances at group. Then she noticed, that this brown fox had her own Summon Band.

"You are a Summoner, aren't you?" Willow asked.

"Yeah, I am....and I can see that you are too" the Fur called Luna, replied back to Willow.  She glanced at the Summon Band on Willow's hand, then glanced over to the group "Which is why I try not to summon so much....I really don't need, nor want others staring at me"

She looked back to Willow once again and held out her hand in a handshaking manner "I'm Luna by the way"

"I'd rather see them in the hands of Summoners than in the hands of the Wraiths any day," Tai replied, then lowered his tone as he continued.  "It's sort of the reason why I ended up here.  I picked those Gems up in one of my ventures, and a scouting patrol of Wraiths found me out...  I never thought they'd be far beyond their borders..."  This is true, for the closest known border of one of the Wraith Generals was nearly half a country away...

"Willow" hare said shortly, holding oput her hand to shake Luna's. Then, she waved to other chair, inviting vixen to take a sit. Willow throwed a quick glance at the group again before turning to Luna "Actually, I am ex-Summoner, as I haven't had any Soul Gems for a long time. I'm keeping this..." she motioned to Summon Band "...as a reminder."

She didn't explain a remainder of what this Summon Band was supposed to be. That wasn't something she would like to talk about with person she had just met. Not that she had anything against Luna.

"So..." Willow began before taking a sip from a pot, after which she continued "What are you doing in Tedisian, Luna?" she gave vixen apologetic smile "I'm sorry, if I am being overly curious, but I don't see many Furs in these parts."

Kyle stared at the gem in his hands, it remained unlight. He frowned in disappointment before handing it back to Tai. "Guess it's not looking for me."

"Wraiths?" Ellen repeated, her expression darkened. "Thanks for the warning."

"Are we leaving now?" Kyle asked the Ratel.

"Of course not, I don't want to be caught on foot by those things," Ellen said. "If we're leaving it will be on a pair of wheels or hooves. Which means we need money."

Kyle smiled. He knew that he'd be able to perform now. The wraiths worried him some, but he told himself it was only a scouting party. Nothing for him to worry about.

Luna took a seat herself as she looked to Willow, listning in on the explanation she was giving her.  She was about speak herself when Willow asked on why she was here, to which Luna just shrugged back "Eh, not much really, just having a look at the festival is all, other than, no real reason on why I'm here....yourself?" she asked Willow as she leaned back in the chair.

***

Skorn gave off a light sounding chuckle as he looked to Kyle "Don't seem so dissapointed, there should be plenty of Soul Gems out there that would choose you" he told him as he took a quick look around, the Goth girl hadn't returned just yet, she must be still hiding.

***

Zoe in turn, remained undetected by the guards as she watched them from within the crowd she was doing her best to blend into.  As guards approached her direction, she moved off once again, walking through the crowds as to not raise any eyebrows.

Tai placed the remaining Soul Gem back in his pack.  "I took out that entire party that was chasing me," he replied, "so there won't be any rapid responses any time soon."  He looked around to find any guards nearby.  "I guess they haven't found her yet..."

"I'm looking for a work. I would prefer the kind that includes fighting against Wraiths, but since there is none here I will have to find something else." Willow answered with the tone in her voice that indicated that she had some personal grudge against Wraiths.

"Found who?" Ellen asked, glancing around in a sudden bout of paranoia.

Kyle nodded at Skorn. "Yep, I'm happy with who I've got and we don't really need more stuff to carry." He shrugged his shoulder, indicating the pack on his back that held the tools of his trade.

"Fighting against the Wraiths? But as work?" Luna thought for a moment "Well, I don't know about work as fighting against them, I mean, I have foughts Wraiths before, but it was in self-defence, nothing to do with work"

***

Skorn looked over at Kyle's backpack and grabbed it for a second, just to get a better indication on what Kyle was carrying around with him before giving off a slight chuckle "I must say, it is impressive.....just as long as you have useful items within your pack to be able to survive....as I doubt that a kid such as yourself, without any sort of equipment, would last long out in the open, and especially against Wraiths"

Skorn then looked back to Kyle's Summon Band "Granted, you do have that, but it would depend on who you are able to summon and how you use them to your own advantage"

"Well... One can find other kinds of work here: protecting local merchants, escorting caravans, fighting bandits and so on." Willow said, then added after a moment "I think I will be going soon. I doubt that anyone will come here with job offer and I need to earn some money." She stood up.

The alarmed teen jerked away from Skorn. Ellen released a feral growl, reaching for her own pack.

"You'd be surprised how long we can last," she said.

"Why not see if any of them have some work for you that you could perhaps do? I mean, it never hurts to at least try anyway" Luna shrugged back to Willow as she watched the girl stand up, yet, didn't move from her seat, leaning back in the chair a little bit as well.

***

Skorn only chuckled some more at Kyle and Ellen's reactions "Very well then, if you believe that you are able to survive out in the wild....then there is no need for me to see for myself....that is, until the time comes anyway...."

He glanced around at the area before looking back to the group "Just be thankful you don't face a whole lot of Wraiths, by the looks of them, they could easily slaughter you two" he seemed to think for a second "But might I ask on where you two are going after this festival is over?"

He himself, knew of the dangers the Wraiths were starting portay, well, having a fair idea anyway, but not a full idea, nor on what purpose they were after either and he already had a plan in his mind on what to do next.

While the talk between the three continued, Tai stepped away to truly take in the surroundings of the city.  If he was to leave any time soon, he'd have to know where he could get them before the time comes.  His eyes stopped on a pair of Furs at a table for a while, before looking back to the sights of the festival.  He might as well take his time here in the city...

"Talking to them won't hurt, I suppose" Willow said, looking for one more time at the group, then turning to Luna "Are you coming? You seemed to be interested in those Summoners as well."

Luna shrugged back to Willow "Not sure if I really should....uh, you go on ahead and talk to them....I'll catch up soon" she told Willow wih a little bit of a smile as well before getting up with a bit of a stretch.

She smiled to Willow once more before heading over to a nearby market stand.  There was a reason on why she didn't want to talk to the lot of them, but why she didn't, she wasn't about to tell anyone, anytime soon as she kept her distance from the others, glancing at the Reaper in question.

"None of your business," Ellen replied pointedly. "Come on, Kyle. We've chatted enough for one day..."

The teen opened his mouth in protest, but the fur turned and walked off. Kyle shot an apologetic look at Skorn, before following his friend.

Tai turned around to see the Fur and Terran walk off, then approached Skorn.  "Something happened?" he asked.

Willow walked to now reduced group. She wondered what they might tell her, but didn't have high hopes for getting from them information about some job offer...

"Hello" she greeted with Reaper and Goth "I am Willow."
