Diana had shrunk just a little more into herself as a fight threatened to break out. When the danger passed, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but still cast worried glances at Xun and Nicus. At Lufia's question, she just shook her head.

At Lufia's suggestion Nicus nodded sagely.

"Aye, I s'pose it'd be for the best in more than one way. Any chance of using a decent forge and I could effect repairs and maintenance on our weapons. Perhaps, even, improve some of them marginally, depending on the tools and items I have on hand."

"Like this?"

"Yes, that's very good," Sendis said. "Just like that. And you needn't be so gentle I can tell that's a finely crafted blade already."

"I see." Signi said, using the stone a bit more forcefully. "I've had it for a long time, but I've never done this before. I wonder if a sword gets bored sitting in it's sheath all the time?"

"Now that this unpleasantness is out of the way," Marik said, having decided to let them work it out. "I suppose we have to wait for the message back from the capital."

"Do you remember the area where your group encountered the Goblins?" Derry asked.

"I doubt inanimate objects experience emotions," Sendis said. "But I'm sure if your sword could then it would be quite bored and jealous as you sit back flinging spells and not using it."

Beside Marik, Kupek's mekka stood idle, seemingly abandoned. As the Zigan finished saying the word 'capital', the armor came to life and turned to face the newcomers. Examining them all quickly, he gave a small wave that belied the armors size. "I'll just introduce myself quickly, then kupo."

The mekka jabbed its own chest with a thumb. "I'm Kupek Moguru, chemist in training. If any of you need something mixed up, let me know," the tiny voice echoed from within. The mekka then held its large hand out to Marik. "You folks'll be safe with us, kupo."

Diana squeaked in surprise as the mekka suddendly moved, and fell off the tree trunk that she was sitting on. She stared at the contraption with wide eyes.

"Ah, the wonders of technology," Marik quipped at the mekka coming to life. "It's hard to remember, do you have a map? It'll help my recollection."

Derry removed one from his pack and handed it to the man.

"Derry, by the way," he said with a friendly smile, "Monster Hunter."

"Marik, it's a pleasure." Marik replied, taking the map. "I'm a blacksmith mostly, though I am training in the family job of Samurai."

He grew silent as he studied the map.

"I remember they came from a copse of trees... somewhere around in here."

He pointed to a spot some miles due southwest of the capital.

"That close..." Derry let out.

It was between the battle lines and the capital, not a good place at all.

"We'll have to hurry then," Laon added, "There should be a small village relatively close to that location where we can resuplly before moving on the offensive."

He then turned to address the group.

"We'll get moving in a few moments. Make sure you have everything and then load into the cart."

The mekka stepped back in surprise, shocked by Diana's reaction. "Oh, sorry kupo! I forget how I look sometimes..." The moogle within the mekka blushed.

Stepping forward, the armor reached out in an attempt to help the Nu Mou back to her feet. "It's okay- I'm an ally...see?" the mekka's head then swung backward on a hinge, revealing the face of its sheepishly smiling occupant.

"Back to battle it seems." Marik whispered to himself. Shaking his head, he decided to talk to Derry a bit. "Vierans are always some of the best company tp keep. When I first started traveling some years ago, I always made sure to talk to them. Aloof, but good people to share stories with."

Kupek looked up at Laon. Y-yessir, kupo!" He looked backed to Diana, the mekka's hand still outstretched.

Well, whatever the little creature's problem was, it seemed to have finally decided to cut it out. That's good, because she wouldn't want to get blood on her new boots. Brushing the hair of her her face, she calmly walked off to the side, but not too far off.

Diana's eyes widened in surprise, as the mekka's faceplate moved to reveal the embaressed moogle. After a moment, she hesistantly took the proferred hand.

"S... Sorry... I was just... surprised... is all." As usual, she spoke in a mumble.

"Mm," Derry nodded, "Though we are condemned for leaving the forest, my sisters have always proved to be the most trusting comrades in time of need. I can tell you you will prove the same."

"Mmm," Marik said, smiling thoughtfully. "In a way, you and I have a similar situation. My family didn't like me leaving Ziga and exploring the world, but the isolationist nature of the land isn't very enticing to me."

He chuckled a little.

"To say nothing of my decision to initally not train in the Samurai way. Oh, they threw a righteous fit over it."

Derry laughed softly.

"Yes, we are quite similar," he said, "But unfortunately, we Viera who have strayed from our homes can never truly go back."

"That is the crucial differnce between us," Marik conceeded, before shrugging. "Well besides the ears, I mean."

"Ah yes, these," Derry chuckled, wiggling them, "They certainly do come in handy."

"I bet they do." Marik said, smirking in good humor. "Like detecting people approaching your camp."

One of Kupek's ears twitched as he listened to the Nu Mou speak in her quiet tone. "Totally understandable, kupo" he said with a chuckle. "Can I ask your name, miss?"
