*Eureka Academy*

((OOC: Japanese? For a moment, I was like wondering how familiar it sounded.))

The first few words Maya used to respond to Eluniel’s apology caught her off-guard. Those were definitely way out of her vocabulary, and it didn’t register. What really registered was the girl’s continued stare at Eluniel. It made her feel really awkward to have someone she barely knew stare at her in this manner.

“Your hair.....its a very nice bluey colour! Did you dye it? Is it a professional job or done by yourself?”

Eluniel couldn’t resist smiling. This comment was particularly rare. Back at the orphanage, it was more of a reminder to the other students that she was dangerous, and could potentially kill them. As this thought receded into the depths of her mind, she wondered about what they would be saying presently, considering the accident where she hurt another orphan.

“Thank you… I was born with hair of this color. I guess, it’s a sort of curse… A reminder…”

She sighed. Then, she realized what she had just said was totally irrelevant. However, as the realization sank in, Maya went on to comment on how her clothing seemed like something from an ‘anime’. Now, the word ‘anime’ was something Eluiniel herself have yet to come across. A look of confusion expressed itself on her face as she looked back at Maya.

It would seem, though, Maya wasn’t about to explain further what exactly an ‘anime’ is. Distracted by the possible class that she needed to attend, she went on to check what class she needed to attend, only to realize that she was still in the middle of break.

“Gomenasai! I...actually dont have a class next. I actually have a free. Sorry for bothering you two due to my carelessness.”

Once again, a word that Eluniel didn’t know about surfaced. Nevertheless, she didn’t bother to comment about it, opting to stare politely back at the girl, expressionlessly. From the corners of her eyes though, she noticed Taron looking to her. Instinctively, she looked away, to the floor, her arms crossing over each other.
 
Taron listened to Eluniel's words with interest. 'A curse? So she does have something hidden...'

"Well then Maya, I had just invited my friend here out to the gardens. And it would seem that it is now lunch break as well. Since we all have free time next period, or so it would seem, why dont we get something to eat and eat it in the garden? After all it is a nice day outside." he said, a smile of invitation on his face.
 
OOC: Yup. She is jap. Just in case people wonder, she basically say something in japanese, then repeats it in english. Its usually the first word.
EG: Gomenasai! Sorry about that.

Maya

“Thank you… I was born with hair of this color. I guess, it’s a sort of curse… A reminder…”

Eeeeh...? A curse you say? But its so pretty. Ah well.

With no knowledge about the process of how Eluniel got her hair and the curse, Maya could not quite comprehend her situation. With no idea of her past, all Maya could think was that maybe her hair drew attention and she got bullied?

"Well then Maya, I had just invited my friend here out to the gardens. And it would seem that it is now lunch break as well. Since we all have free time next period, or so it would seem, why dont we get something to eat and eat it in the garden? After all it is a nice day outside."

Really? You'd have lunch with me? Oh wow! This school is so friendly! I would love to join you two. Kaasan (mother) made me a bento box...

And to prove her point, she pulled out a three tier lacquered box wrapped in a cloth.

...and i think she made too much. I can share with you guys if you want?
​
 
Her lips curved slightly into a smile as she heard Maya’s reiteration of her compliment. Not that she was the type that was easily flattered, but no one has ever complimented her before. Admittedly, while she hasn’t thought it was as good as she had imagined it to be, this, to her, would suffice.

It was already starting to make her less regretful of having left a place where she had spent all her life in. This was an entirely different environment, and an entirely different future. However, at this point in time, she did not mind it as much as she originally did.

Her heart was still racing, but at least it slowed down.

“Really? You'd have lunch with me? Oh wow! This school is so friendly! I would love to join you two. Kaasan (mother) made me a bento box...”

Once again, another alien word surfaced, though Eluniel was less interested to know about it this time. It sounded like it referred to some figure in Maya’s life, and she decided to leave it at that. All that Eluniel was curious about was this ‘bento box’ that Maya had mentioned.

Almost as if Maya read her mind, she produced a cloth-wrapped cloth. Her eyes remained fixated on the box. Yet, realizing how rude she may appear, she tore her focus from it to glance at Taron. His face bore an inviting smile, which, coupled with his eyes of crimson seemed surprisingly welcoming.

“...And I think she made too much. I can share with you guys if you want?”

Eluniel looked over to Taron, her eyes bearing a glint of earnest. She definitely wanted to try out what this ‘bento box’ contained, however, she couldn’t bring herself to admit it, especially since the offer was not directed to her alone.
 
Taron looked over at Eluniel. In her eyes he saw still the hesitancy that was there before but also a desire, a desire to be a part of this. He kept his smile and, for the first time since he had arrived, he lifted his head enough to meet someone's eyes.

"Well then, I guess it's set," he said. "I think the gardens are just beyond that door there," he continued, nodding at a door about two-thirds down the wall from them. "Let's go then." He turned to head to the door before remembering something important.

He spun back around to face Eluniel. 'She's bringing out the best in me,' he mused. He offered his hand to her again, hoping she would take it this time. "Care to join us?"
 
OOC: Keep in mind that I haven't the slightest clue as to what's going on. All I know is that Raistlin is waiting to go on a mission. If this post doesn't belong, PM me, and I will change it. /OOC

Raistlin sat down, waiting for the mission to start. He really didn't care who was leading this mission, as long as it got underway soon. He signed up to kill things, release some frustrations, and get things done. Not to sit around on his ass and wait until everyone got their shit together. He was so bored that he almost fell asleep.

The teacher eventually showed up and took things over.

"These are short wave radio’s with a voicebox activated mic, these pick up on the vibrations of your vocal cords and not your voice, while you need to talk to have them transmit but loud volume is not required. I will not have this go more tits-up then I have to… So what are your skill sets? What do we have to work with?"

Raistlin answered, "I'm the mage of the group. I work with elements, none of that fancy 'turning people into frogs' bullshit. I'm very well versed with Fire, Thunder, and Darkness. However, I am more than able to use the rest of the elements, those three are just my favorites."

"Unlike most Mages, I like getting in close and personal. No attacking from 50 feet away. The closer I am, the better I work. That's just the way I like things. As for the rest of the group, the hell if I know."

Raistlin then followed Nova to the cars to get to the mission. After some time, listened to her gameplan.

Athena looked at the others around her as she waited for the all clear to start the mission. It had been a while since the Disciplinary Committee member had seen any direct action and she was longing to exert a little justice on the more unwelcome denizens of Eureka. Either through capture or direct combat and destruction was none of her concern, as long as she got to exert the long arm of the law and order upon the beasts which threatened the safety of Eureka.
___________________________________________________________
Adam was significantly more nervous than Athena. This was his first mission. Even though he had a couple of senior students there to help him along, he still couldn't stop the nerves from striking him, making him cold, making his heart pump with fear and excitement, and he wasn't sure which he should feel. There was always the danger of dying on missions, even on simple beginner ones like these, so he would have to stay wary, and close to the leaders.
 
(OOC; these are not long or descriptive really. More me just making aware where my characters are and such.)


VEERLE
a word?

​
Veerle had inclined her head in response to her fellow Disciplinary Committee member and waited patiently as the class continued around her. She knew it was rude to just walk into the class unannounced, but that was just the way Veerle was.

Lunch break was announced and Veerle found herself groaning inwardly. She didn't WANT to get to know her fellow classmates. Infact, she rather socialised with anyone outside of the Committee at the best of times, anyway. She sighed as she pushed away from the wall and made to grab her halberd.

"You must be Veerle? I want to have a quick word with you before you leave."

Curious, Veerle left her weapon where it was and waited until she was sure her classmates were out of earshot of the classroom.

"A word?" she asked, tilting her head slightly as she looked at the teacher. Whatever could he be wanting a word with HER about? She almost groaned out loud. It'd probably be a detention. Well wasn't THAT going to look good on the Committee.

CATHAL
freedom of flight

​
The students filed out of the classrooms all around them and Cathal laughed nervously.

"Well... seems it's time for Lunch!" He said with a gentle titter as he turned back the way he had come. "Cafeteria is back this way. Krego's class is down the corridor a little further that way. You can't miss it." He threw the girl a little wink before taking a side door out of the building, spreading his wings and flying upwards.

The rush of air against his skin made him feel free and he turned his eyes back down to the school.

Shouting to be heard over the wind and the general bustle of students, Cathal called out to the girl once more.

"I'll see you around, Little Lady!"

AMANE
oopsie
​

Amane was in a rush. It was dinner time and if she didn't hurry, no doubt she'd trampled over due to her tiny frame and she wouldn't get a seat at a table nearer the doors so she could get out quickly.

She didn't pause as she charged through the doors only to trip over ... something (could possibly have just been air or her own foot) and find herself flailing through the air to land with a rather harsh thump on her front.

"Ouchies..." she muttered, sitting up and rubbing at her ear. She was a cat... wasn't she meant to be graceful and always land on her feet? She purred irritably as she combed her fingers through her tail and rose to her feet, adjusting her uniform and sighing softly.

"Wellllll, that was embarrassing"

(ooc: could someone talk to her or something? XD)
​
 
x- Yuki: Wing Envy -x

He winked and she blushed. she didnt know why she did it but even though she tried she just couldnt stop the blood from rushing to her cheeks at the sight of the boy winking at her. He left her standing there with correct directions to both the cafeteria and Kregos room. He flew as he exited the school. He looked back at her, telling her he would see her around and she simply waved before heading to Krego's class hoping to catch the teacher before he left for dinner. she needed to make sure she was in a class before she went for lunch. The conversation played through her mind and even though it was only short it shook her to her core.
She had never had feelings for boys before, at least not this deep and strange. she had never been this captivated with someone. Seeking to change her train of thought she said to herself "I wonder what it would be like to have wings?" But her mind dragged her thoughts back to him and his wings. "Maybe if we become friends he will show me one day" and with that thought she headed straight for krego's classroom door. Only to find that she had gone the wrong way and been pushed by the crowd down to the mess hall.

x-Yuki: Dinnertime -x


"oh well" she thought as she headed towards the serving area. She heard a thud and looked down as someone tripped over her foot. She saw a girl standing up and dusting herself off. "I am so sorry" she said trying to make up for the accident as the girl straightened her uniform up "im away with the fairires today. are you okay?" Now her mind was really messing with her. this girl was pretty too. it was so difficult not to blush that she did it hoping that the fact she had just tripped the girl over would give her an excuse to do so.

OOC: Crappy and short post I know

IC:
After a few more moments of waiting in line Ravona and Sophia could finally place their orders. In Ravona’s case it was a few sandwiches and bottled water. Which she ate while heading back towards Mr. Krego’s classroom, she could have eaten in the cafeteria but they were pressed for time and Ravona disliked being late.
As they walked Ravona asked: “So what do you think of Mr. Krego?” Ravona only asked because she had nothing better to do, and considering she had asked Sophia questions she didn’t want to answer herself she had to keep to topic somewhere else.
 
Sophia​

Finally having reached the end of the line up for herself and Ravona to be able to place their orders, Sophia would just have one sandwich, as Ravona seemed to be in a hurry so she didn't want to be still eating when she would get back to Mr. Krego's Classroom, she could deal with having something to drink afterwards, just getting something into her would satisfy her long enough to have the meeting with Krego.

Once they got their sandwiches, and the bottled water for Ravona, she already started making her way out of the Cafeteria seemingly to head right back to the Classroom. Noticing right away, Sophia followed along, and while they were walking back Ravona asked her “So what do you think of Mr. Krego?”

She didn't have to give any thought to her answer, without a moment of thought she replied "I think he is a really nice guy, and he got me out of a real jam, I feel like I owe him my life for it, I was so scared, still thinking about it... But anyway, yep, Krego seems to be a really good person, and talented."

Still awkwardly holding onto her sandwich with a paw on top and bottom of it, she brought it up to take a big bite out of it after she finished speaking, leaving an amount of it left that should easily be eaten in the next bite she would take out of it.

OOC: Sorry for the short post. And what questions Sophia didn't want to answer, Drachnon? :hmmm:

Crimson Wolf​

As he laid in his bed, after a very short time, his stomach rumbled. 'I already ate...but I'm pretty thirsty, I could probably get an ice cold drink of water at the Cafeteria, guess it would be okay to go back there to have a refreshing drink to perk me up.' he thought.

Only reason he would have even slightly hesitated would be that he was there not very long ago, but he felt a bit uncomfortable there before, and rushed himself a little bit, but this time he would go more relaxed.

Getting up from his bed, he exited the dorm, set to head for the Cafeteria. As he got close to the doors to the Cafeteria, he could already tell there was a decent length line up, so he knew he would be in for some waiting time, and between that and that he would set at a table to relax and enjoy the drink he would get, he could be there for a short while.

As he entered in, he noticed a couple of people in particular near the middle of the Cafeteria. Well, one wasn't exactly a person, but some cat-like girl, who was short, had pretty long, dark colored hair, big bright brown eyes, then there was the fact that she had ears atop her head like those of a feline, and a long dark colored tail.

Coming into the Cafeteria to see that slowed his steps a bit, but he proceeded to get in the line up of people waiting to place their orders. After seeing her, whoever this cute little cat-like girl was, he became slightly nervous, and had a hard time not looking over at her, but otherwise wasn't exceedingly nervous at this time.

"Excuse me! Pardon me!" Stella kept saying as she pushed by people to the cafeteria to find Ray.

Upon realizing she didn't have a luch she spotted a boy sitting at a nearby lunch table and took his try of food. "thanks I owe you one! Behave!" she said to himas she ran on with the tray in her hands.

This student had ordered a nice juicy steak with mashed potatoes and rice. Along with toast and veggies. The best part about it was all of the food was untouched yet. Stella spotted Kisharu's tail wagging from afar and went to sit near Ray, being as calm as she could. She still huffed from the long run back to Eureka. Setting her tray on the table and her rod on the floor she put on a smile and began to pet Kisharu. Staring at Ray she began to speak again. "So sorry for making you wait. I had alot of errands to run!" She smiled.
 
Eliane led the party to the beach, which was already infested with monsters. Fortunately, there were no civilians nearby, but this did not change matters. "Agatha, since you will need the experience, you will be our primary attacker, and I will back you up with my abilities. Athena, Zee, you guys will also attack the monsters but make sure that no civilians are harmed. Saving the innocents are our top priority, understood?" She wanted to be clear on this, as she did not want any dead innocents on their conscience this early in the school year.

"Alright, let us begin."
 
OOC: Any specifics on the monster types? Or is it up to us as long as they are beach type monsters?

Escaflowne

Athena, Zee, you guys will also attack the monsters but make sure that no civilians are harmed. Saving the innocents are our top priority, understood?"

No problem. Lets do this then.

Escaflowne twirled her shoulders and her arm before moving to her legs and knees. It was only to limber up a bit and as she stood from her leg stretches, Escaflowne's hand strayed to her sword, where the hilt met the sheath. Wrapping her right hand arund the wooden scabbard, her thumb bent backwards and in an instant, flicked straight, sending the large nodachi flying straight up into the sky, arching before plummeting back towards the ground into the midst of monsters.

Escaflowne, at the exact moment when the blade flew, opened a portal and stepped into the center of the monsters, extended her right arm out to her side with her hands open, thumb down. Without looking, Touhou flew down straight where her hand is and in an instant, Escaflowne wrapped her right hand around the hilt, twirled it upright and lashed out at the closest monster, cleaving it in two. Before the monster had fallen, she was onto the next in the group, then the next. In a flurry of swipes with the black blade, she had cleared all the monsters that were within her sword range from where she stood. Blood slid slowly down the black metal before being quickly flung off with a swing. Glancing around, some of the monsters congregated in front while others spread in a circle. She turned to those that had grouped together, gripped her left hand and raised it as if to back palm someone. A slight blur began to appear around her fist.

Hmph. Disappear. Kamaitachi!

Following through with a back swing of her left hand, a scything arc of wind flew from her hand and cleaved through the closely packed monsters. Although she had taken out a few within the first few barrages. There were plenty left.

OOC: out of ideas xD

Kazuki's almost finished with his fried noodles. He noticed that the cafeteria's getting more crowded.

"It's lunch time, what do you expect?" he thought as he open his bottled water.

Suddenly, he sensed an unusual aura. It was not an aura of a human. He saw a wolf accompanied by two people.

"It's a dog!"

Kazuki smiled as he stare at its beautiful ears and its wagging tail. Even though he knew it was a wolf, he prefer to call it "dog".

"I wish I had one.. It's all because of dad!"

Mr. Masato (Kazuki's dad) was allergic to animals especially dogs and cats.

He opens his bottle of water and took a little sip. Suddenly, he also noticed the cute cat-girl. He almost spat his drink as she pass by.

"Who is she? A cosplay girl? Nah.. I doubt it" he thought.

He also saw the wolf-man walking along the cafeteria. It was his first time seeing one.

"Another dog? No.. this one's have a different energy" he wondered.
 
((OOC: I suppose I’ll just get this post in. Was originally intending to wait for Tipsy’s character to react before I chipped in, but oh well. And well, Eluniel’s just pure clueless about handshakes and lots of other customary greetings, as you’ll soon find out. And sorry for the short post.))

Eluniel smiled sincerely for the first time. This wasn’t a smile of gratitude to someone, or a forced smile she had learned to and always maintained back in the orphanage. It was a smile of true happiness, and Eluniel was gratified to be able to experience this feeling.

Suddenly, the Academy seemed like a less scary place to be in. There were still plenty of strangers wandering around about their businesses, but at least, she realized, there would be two that would make the place seem nicer to be in.

"Care to join us?"

Eluniel nodded, though, she remained clueless about the outstretched hand. “Yes,” She responded. “Please. Thank you!”
 
Nova quickly had a plan of attack ready standing on the fender of the 18 wheeler,
“Okay guys, this is how we’ll roll, it’s a shit plan but its the best one I can see and we don’t have time to get our thinking caps out if we want to iron this out before nightfall. Okay you guys stay with the truck, work out your own placements as best you can, I’ll ride with you to here” Nova said pointing on the map with her knife’s point to indicate a specific spot as opposed to the area you get with a finger “then I will egress the transport and make my way here,” Nova said pointing at a mountain ridge where she should have a good line of sight of the ambush position “I will set up and radio ahead when i am in place when you will tell the driver to pick up the pace again to drive to here, where if their ambush will be if they have any sense, which I do hope since stupid is harder to predict then smart, I will provide fire support from my location, you will defend their attacks, and depending on how fast you are clearing out their roadblock I will either link up there, or further down the road… No worries I’ll catch up… Ooh and before you ask why I wont be in the thick of it with you boys, this isn’t a weapon for short range engagements.” Nova said as she opened the aluminium case she had been carrying the whole day on her back and pulled out a Wa-2000 sniper rifle with a nightforce scope and a few extra pictinny rails bristling with all sorts of high tech gizmos.

“Oorah, move out.”

Nova said as she got into the car on the left most seat in the driver’s cab. “We all inside? Good, driver, drive!”

About a half an hour later they had gotten to the Nova’s exit, the car slowed down for a quick second as though the coming corner was harder then it really was. Getting out of the car and running to bleed of her momentum, which she could have done easier but she didn’t think they needed to see that part of her magick yet (ooc: not a typo). Getting out she waited for the truck to pass and then hustled up the mountain running 8 minute miles until she got to her OP Settling down she flipped her bipod out and got settled in before linking up with the trucks, “Okay roadblock is in place, I have eyes on 3 no 4 tangos I repeat 4 tangos, don’t go thinking that’s all there are, I’ll keep you informed further as you get closer, tell the dude to step on it, it doesn’t look like they are ready for us yet and that works in our favour.”

Nova spent the next few minutes getting her ranges dialled in and checking the windage and working out the million other things you need to know before you can take the shot at these ranges, luckily at this altitude she didn’t need to differentiate between the actual air pressure and the air pressure corrected for altitude, a classic error for the novice and one she hadn’t made in ages but still keeping your skills honed paid off. “okay boys, next curve and you’re there, Maximum aggression and maximum speed, hit them first and hit them so hard they wont know what happened until after we’re done kicking their asses. Oohrah boys”

Lining up a shot with the Medulla oblongata of the dude who was supposed to trigger the rockslide Nova squeezed of a shot, felt the recoil telling her the round was a good one, waited the required 3 seconds, and then watched the dude’s head come off, the bullet having neatly severed the connection between his brain and the spine in such a way that the body didn’t even spasm. Although ofcourse in that age old adage by Mr. Murphy the corpse fell on the detonator triggering the rockslide anyways…

Already lining up another shot she quickly aced the guy with the RPG who seemed intent on blowing up the truck, for whatever obsuce reason, by now her students had engaged a second nest of bandits she didn’t have line of sight to from her current location. Taking another dozen shots in about the same amount of time Nova and her students quickly finished off the ambush site.

“So boys, how do you like being cold blooded killers? Feels pretty shitty right? Not at all noble or hard core or whatever BS they fed you in movies and the like” Nova said before the rush had worn off, hoping that she’d be able to stop them from learning to enjoy it… “Get to work cleaning off that landslide, I’ll be right there” Nova said as she policed her brass, erased her presence with an ease that spoke of long habit and hiked further up the hill while pushing the brass into a pocket on her catsuit and stasher her rifle in it’s case on her back before -as she was standing on a small cliff-flipped one of her ocular in front of her eye and pressed her legs together and put her arms flat down her side, went en-pointe to activate this power of her suit and jumped off, stretching her arms and legs out into a flight suit and she raced down the mountains, following the trucks who had by now been a lot further along the road. Probably cleared the roadblock with that elemental wizard or something. Her ocular showing her the path the air was taking and where there were up drafts and down drafts as well as overlaying a HUD onto the ground to keep her level and provide her with her air and over ground speed and speed relative to the truck she would be landing on.

“Hey boys watch this” Nova said into her mic just before she blasted past the truck at 100MPH before angling up to airbrake and give the truck a chance to catch up with her. A few seconds later there was a bump as nova landed on the top of the trucks cab and swung down into the cab. “So anyone got a snack? I´m feeling peckish and I kinda forgot to bring anything on account of me being recruited about an hour ago for a mission that you guys were already assembling for…”

The rest of the way was smooth driving with the only noteworthy incident being that they had to drive over the ambush site on the way back and that there was a bit of grit on the road there.

OOC; sorry Oliver but your trucking to the harbour and then boating back makes ABOUT NO SESNE AT ALL (that’s a technical term) So this is what I call a crappy post but the comp here in our holiday home on the Costa Blanca in Spain is about a million years old and the chair is making my back hurt something awful… But purely to spite Crimson, us europeans have broadband even here. J nananananaanaaah

And Oliver, the reason this takes forever was mainly a few reasons, one most of the guys here are taking every opportunity to roleplay with everyone. I would call the lunch break bento sharing followed by a trip to the gardens, and your running into a class you don’t audit to hang out with Nova and then being apparently flustered that i kick you out when i want to start my course… We need more people to take charge and keep on point as opposed to meandering about a bit.
 
OOC: @ Lux: I was waiting for you to respond to Gavin XD. Well, since gavin seems to know where everything and my character is clueless about the school layout, ill post a short one.

@ FF: Is what you mentioned about the trio going to the garden a good thing or bad thing?

Maya

​
With Eluniel now joining them, they were ready to go. The bento box sat cradled in her arms as Maya glanced around where they were. The weather was nice and from what she had seen from the school, the garden was going to be definitely the best place to eat a picnic. Unfortunately, just like it was with her classroom she thought she had to go, Maya had no idea where the garden was. It was due to the fact that schools in Japan were usually one large, several storey building whereas in Eureka, the whole island was the school. Her already crummy sense of direction had been effectvely trashed even further.

Well....lets go then.... You lead the way...um.....eh...i never caught your names actually.
 
Taron smiled at how open Eluniel sounded. She had a genuine smile and that alone made Taron smile. "My name's Taron, Maya," he said as he led thim out the door to the gardens. 'I think I may have to make the first move...'

The roses were in full bloom, a palette of red, violet, and pink. The sun filtered through the ivy covered terraces to shine on glossy green leaves where drops of water sparkled. Closer to the path they walked were tiger lilies, carnations and amaryllis.

He led them to a small table by the water pool. The pool was the only place where there was nothing covering it from the sun. Here the water glimmered as the lotus flowers floated in it. At the back of the pool a waterfall ran, pushing ripples outward.

Ahead of them, he took a seat near the edge, quickly plucking one of the tiger lilies beside him.
 
As the trio stepped out into the gardens of Eureka Academy, Eluniel was treated to a sight she had never once seen before. Flowers of various colors filled the place, so much so that it almost seemed like a scene out of a canvas. She couldn’t help glancing around, her eyes focusing on the different type of flowers that she saw.

Once again, she compared this scene back to the gardens of the orphanage she was raised in. Here, everything was rather vibrant and colorful. The orphanage’s garden stood in stark contrast, with its duller colors. The flowers were not as well-taken care of. Even the scent in the gardens of Eureka Academy seemed to be aimed at highlighting this point.

Focusing back on Taron, who was leading the way, Eluniel increased her pace to close up the gap. He directed the group to a small table. This table was close to a waterfall, and hearing it, Eluniel’s curiosity was once again piqued. However, she suppressed that interest in favor of her companions.

It wouldn’t be polite to blatantly ignore them, at least, to her. She watched Taron as he sat, moving on to pluck a tiger lily beside him. Not that there was anything particularly intriguing about the action, except that she didn’t know what else to say. Feeling awkward, she walked over to the table and took a seat.
