Tomerj has been walking for a few hours now around the capitol city. He had travelled from his home South of the city, which was more akin to the wilderness rather than any village. He had heard many tales about this 'capitol' as the people here and all around called it. So far, he wasn't all that impressed, sure it was a large city and probably well defended, but the people were likely not happy...or, at least that was how he saw the whole 'city life' thing. All around him, Humans, Elves and Half-Elves walked, all going about their business in rather hurried manners. Along with them ran groups of children, both Elf and Human. To Tomerj, they were all rather odd in appearance and mentality, but he accepted that different people were, well different.<br/><br/>He had been accumulating a large amount of odd, or scared looks from the nearby people. Perhaps the sight of one of his kind was terrifying to the smaller races? No, surely they wouldn't think of him as a threat, for he wasn't here to harm anyone. The guards had even stopped him at the gates, and demanded to know why someone such as himself would wish to travel in the city, he had just answered that he wanted to sell off hunted animals. Currently, he was now walking in what he would a square, he took notice of an Aquatic elf that was stood with a large group of others, along with some guards that seemed suspicious of them for some reason. His people and them held good relations, since both of them valued different aspects of the natural world. He took a stab in the dark, and approached them.<br/><br/>Now closer, he looked above the heads of the guards and spoke in a powerful and commanding accented tone.<span style="color: #FFBF40">"Is there a problem here guard?"</span>He towered above both of the Elven guardsmen, they both looked rather frail to him, but then again most of the smaller folk did.<br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Lierin smiled as the Human spoke, she had often heard tales from other Aquatic Elves that lived nearer to cities, that Humans and land-Elves were quite horrible people, perhaps that wasn't the case, at least with Misao.<br/><br/><span style="color: #0000FF">"You are right, my people are a quite rare thing in these lands, most of them spend their time in settlements near the seas and rivers. However, I have since found home in a small lake not so far from here."</span>She said to Miaso, she was quite interested in the affairs of land-elves and Humans, they have always fancinated her greatly.<span style="color: #0000FF">"I have never seen the mountains that you call your home, or at least I don't think I have done so." </span>She added, but just as she finished she heard the shrill voice of a Land-Elf behind her.<br/><br/>Turning around, she instantly knew that it was one of the soldiers of the city, or rather a guard, one of the two. From his words he seemed suspicious of the group, which was odd in Lierin's eyes considering that they hadn't done anything wrong. Or at least she didn't think there was a rule against standing in one place, while talking to others. She was somewhat distracted however, when a woman who was drawing her, asked her to remain still so that she could draw her.<br/><br/><span style="color: #0000FF">"Questionable?" </span>She asked, not entirely sure what he meant by it, for she assumed that the laws of Land-Elves were different in some aspects to those of her own people's laws and rules. Honestly she was also trying to conceal the smile that was trying to show itself, when the Lion-Centaur appeared behind the guard. Her and his people's had always been friends of a sort, not that she hoped it would end in violence.<br/><br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Rina had since moved from her hiding place, behind Miaso's legs. She didn't feel threatened or scared by Lierin anymore, plus there were more people in the area just in case of anything bad happening.<span style="color: #00FF40">"Blue Elves aren't that normal here." </span>She said rather bluntly and in the manner that a child would say it, while she was slowly growing fond of the group, she didn't yet want to remove the cloak of trickery, and tell them that she was a Mini-Elf.<span style="color: #00FF40">"People always say that they live in lakes and rivers though."</span>She added, in the same manner as she had done before, unsure as to whether it would actually offend the blue-skinned Elf. She hoped that it wouldn't, for the sake of everyone else.<br/><br/>However, upon hearing the high pitched and shrill voice of a guard, Rina let out a high pitched squeal of suprise and hid once more behind Miaso's legs. She had never liked normal Elf guards, they were always rather horrid to others, especially Humans and some of the stranger races. Her surprise and panic was only intensified when she saw the legs of what looked like a large cat. She had never seen one of the big cats as they were called, but she reckoned that they looked like larger versions of normal domesticated cats. Especially when it spoke. She wanted to run, badly.<br/><br/>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Jonathan stood quiet and wordless as he listened to the others talk, he wasn't one for talking that much, especially when there were Elves involved. He had learned to hate them when his village received it's first group of Elven explorers, they were vile people, with vile moods and vile senses of humour in Jonathan's eyes. He really didn't like them, but now his hate was mainly towards the soldiers and guards, rather than the normal elven people, that made the majority of them. From what he had listened to, Lierin and Miaso were talking about where they had come from, he would have had some input himself but in the presence of so many Elves, he didn't think it to be the wisest thing he would do...and it'd probably be his last.<br/><br/>He showed no emotion when a guard or soldier shouted at the group, he had grown used to the sound of Elves shouting at the tops of their lungs, he just didn't really care. Not in the least.<span style="color: #FF0000">"No officer, we're no doing anything, we're literally just talking amongst ourselves. Little else." </span>He said in a fairly annoyed tone, he stood a head taller than the guard, and was far more muscular...and far more stubborn, so John reckoned he could fight the guard, if it came to it. He had to look over the Elf's shoulder however, when he heard and deep and powerful voice from behind the pathetic soldier, apparently one some kind of...lion-thing, had found it's way here.
