In enemy territory|Naurorod

[Kender Bard]

After a couple days of journeying, Volt and Brem have now entered the lands where the Fire types hold sway.

[iamtuo]

Brem takes a deep breath. "Well..this is it. Kinda wish we took a detour yesterday to that other town to pray at there temple."

[Kender Bard]

"No amount of prayers in the world is going to get us out of this," Volt mutters under his breath.

[iamtuo]

"...You know you dont have to come with me if you dont really want to." Brem gives a small smile to help encourage him to speak the truth just in case Volt still has some doubts.

[Kender Bard]

Volt takes a deep breath. "It was my idea, right? I'm just afraid, Brem..."

[iamtuo]

"Dont worry..i'm afriad to...Well, might as well get going." Brem takes a deep breath and walks ahead.

[Kender Bard]

Volt sticks close to him, and for a time, the pair remain alone. But after a few hours of walking, a band of scantily clad, barbarian looking people begin to approach them.

[iamtuo]

Brem halts and tries to remain calm as the barbarians approach.

[Kender Bard]

The band spreads out around the two, a female with a Fire symbol emblazoned on her left arm taking the lead. "Who are you, and what business do you have in the Fire Lands?"

[iamtuo]

"My name is Brem we are on a Force Quest."

[Kender Bard]

The woman glances at her partners, who shrug and study the men closely. The woman smirks and leans in close to Brem. "You two wouldn't happen to be Storm spies, would you?"

[iamtuo]

"No. I am not a spy. Nor do I have any intention of helping raise the number of deaths this war is causing."

[Kender Bard]

The woman's eyes glint dangerously. "You didn't deny your element."

[iamtuo]

Brem gives her a look before pulling up his sleeve to show his storm sign.

[Kender Bard]

Volt groans softly, right at the same time that all the Fire types circling them ready their stances to attack at a word. The woman holds up a hand and they keep themselves in check. Frowning at Brem, she growls, "You and your accomplice are to come with us."
