"Mmh.. When winter rolls aroud some of the tribes out west migrate this way. They're not very civilised." *She sipped her beer, pondering for a moment.* "You might get lucky and avoid it. Wouldn't count on it."
Janise
"We'll be fine."*He said in reassurance.*"And if anything does happen, we at least got a warning for it now. Town's been growing quite a bit. Gotten a few more eyes to keep watch of the place and, while I'm out recruiting, been able to get a few more to assist with things. Nothing to worry of."*Though he did say that, it did occur to the Elf that he'd have to get back soon to notify Kibaru. The Kemonomimi had offer Terrel a chance to go out and leave the rest of the guild and town work to him, but Terrel questioned if it would be right of him to leave if said threat was bound to happen while he was gone.*
Jorge
"Mmh. Either make sure you have somewhere fortified to get the townsfolk safe, or pay them off. Unless you fancy your chances in a fight." *She smirked a bit, drinking more once again.* "Odd place to stick a town though. Why there? Outside of that elf colony's borders mm?"
Janise
"After surviving several fireballs to the body, one begins to wonder if they're just invincible."*He joked back to her at the thought of their chances in a fight.*"It's an unclaimed land outside of the typical governmental control while still having a close trading port and access to an arcane gate."*He answered her.*"Told my friend of it and he figured it a nice place to begin a new village. Besides it's both far enough from the warfare and furthest away from most that would typically want to kill us or turn us in as is. I won't say we don't get our mercenary work done without making a lot of enemies along the way."
Jorge
"Mmh.. One way or another someone bigger than you is going to come knocking. So be careful." *She sat up a bit and shifted in her chair.* "It's not a bad spot really, if you can keep it. A little isolated though."
Janise
"If it continues growing, one may not know the difference at some point. We'll fight to keep that spot if it ever comes to it. But you're right, no matter what a higher power always has a chance of coming. We can only bide our time and prepare for it, but we have others to focus on right now. I think we're partially lucky that the majority of the main land is focused on the war right now. Keeps us out of the picture while still allowing us to be indirectly involved."*He looked back over to her.*"Seems like you're planning on returning to the war once winter ends with what you said earlier. Guess you're going to keep fighting until the coin runs dry, hm?"
Jorge
"I'm swimming in gold now. I got rich off of killing nobles and waylaying knights. Bah. My friends are off abroad, fighting elsewhere. In the meantime I plan on setting up a proper mercenary company, with a headquaters and everything. Mmh.. It's a better use of my time." *She sipped her beer some more.*
Janise
*He tilted his head back in thought.*"You know you're one of the few mercenaries I encounter again that's actually gained enough wealth to start working on their own business. Makes me wonder what's become of all the others ones."*He thought about it for a moment, then refocused on Sivne.*"You planning on setting up around here then or did you have another place in mind?"
Jorge
"This is home, and I prefer working with my own kind." *She seemed to ponder the question of the other mercenaries.* "...Mmh. I've met a lot of mercenaries in Mentia. Killed most of them, bah. Mmm you ever met Sonja? Me and her've been running around killing everyone." *She itched the base of her horns. "I'll try and get some land around here for a headquaters."
Janise
"Sonja...?"*He questioned slowly, wondering if the name seemed familiar.*"An Ursinoid right?"*He had recalled meeting them at a tavern once. She had asked for Mercenary advise before eventually leaving to continue her own journey. So this is what she's been doing this whole time. He let out a laugh.*"Sounds like you two been having fun."*Terrel said. Between them and him and Kibaru, the idea of just running rampant murdering everyone amused him.*"Well maybe I'll have a chance to visit it whenever you're finished building it up."*He said afterwards.*
Jorge
"Just a ferry ride down the river. Mmh, suprised you chose the spot right between the federation and that Silnarian colony. But visit anytime." *She continued to chug her beer.* "So what's the plan with your little town anyway? Take in refugees and try to not get killed?"
Janise
"You know maybe you're better off heading there and asking that ally of mines. I'm just here to support a friends' lifelong dream of being able to run his own town."*He told her.*"And, much like the guild, I'll help protect it for as long as he wants to keep the place growing. Better use of time, hm?"*He said, smirking at her.*
Jorge
*She gave a shrug.* "Mmm. Each to their own." *And drank more beer.* "You sound like you're retiring, just becoming some marshal of some frontier town."
Janise
"You'd think retirement would involve doing a lot less work."*He joked.*"I'm just helping out until the place can handle its own for the time being. Though when you've earned yourself plenty of coin, you find yourself doing things other than the typical mercenary work. Guess that leaves more time having fun with travels. Been a few places I've been looking to visit."
Jorge
"Mmh.. I'd think if I had so much money I'd be using it more actively. Any places you've been meaning to visit?" *She finished her tankard of beer, deciding not to order another one for the time being.* "I've not actually gone too far, really."
Janise
"A lot of places actually. I've recently found a map at this Library in Mentia, shows a whole part of the mainland I haven't visited yet. Like Ruttenia to the far East and the states to the far south. I've been spending a lot of my time around the center of Ramul Ta, but plenty of places to explore outside of it."
Jorge
"Ruttenia? What's that?" *She seemed to have no idea the place existed, pulling out her own map. It was a much smaller scale than Terrel's.* "Never heard of it.."
Janise
*The Silnari merely chuckled.*"You know, whenever you're finished building up that company of yours, you should take the time to just travel for a while."*He suggested.*"Explore the world. I've heard many tend to leave home for the sake of wanderlust."
Jorge
"Mmh. Perhaps. I'd rather stay focused. I have a goal in mind and I aim to see it through now." *She ordered over another drink for herself.*
Janise
"Just something to consider. Might be something you take an interest in."*He said, closing his eyes idly. It was interesting speaking with the beastkin after the time since their previous conversation. She seemed so focused on other things, it was a wonder of if the war has truly set her down a different path. That or the drinks were really getting to her. He grew amused at the thought. Perhaps it was worth revisiting the other mercenaries he had once crossed paths with to see just how far they've come.*"At any rate, you're free to visit the town whenever you'd like."*He told her, sitting more up right as if he were getting ready to leave.*"I should probably return back to warn the others of the migration."
Jorge
"Mmh. Alright. Safe travels, been nice catching up." *She took her tankard and sipped it, giving a nod to him.* "I'll stop by soon." *She let him leave, remaining sat down enjoying her drink.*
Janise
*Terrel got up to go, taking a step to leave before stopping and glancing back at the beastkin. He reached into his pocket, taking out a few silver coins and placing it down next to her.*"Last drink is on me."*He said before giving her casual two finger salute.*"Enjoy yourself."*With that he turned and headed off down the road, figuring he'd make whatever progress he could before it got too late.*
