What did he do? Oh, he tried to use his charming skills in wooing a lady who wasn’t that easily swayed?” So curious creature, poking her nose in matters that didn’t really belong to her. Nera couldn’t help it. She often spoke before thinking. “You had a fight…?” At first she sounded worried, but then understood it could be something less serious too. “Ooh, a practice fight, right? I agree with you Alsiel. It looks like a good head.” Nera said with a broad smile. She probably didn’t understand the concept in the same as Alsiel as she thought Mathis had a pretty head, especially the hair. It was so pure and lively red she wanted to touch it, but she had just lectured Alsiel about touching tails, so it wouldn’t be right going touching people she had just made after lecturing someone about it.<br/><br/>They went straight to the first name basis. That was nice. It did make them feel like friends. Her worried and guilty expression melted away instantly when Mathis offered to help so easily. Nera’s moods could swing from one extreme to another in a blink of an eye. Her bushy tail wagged like she was a happy human puppy.<br/><br/>“Pleasure is all mine! Thank you so much!” Nera bowed her head to show gratitude, despite the fact they hadn’t found anything yet. Just the gesture of helping seemed to make her extremely happy. “It’s… it’s like a glass egg with an ornamented metal cage around it. It’s about… this big.” She showed length to approximately four inches with her fingers. “It’s really important! The high priestess herself gave it to me so I could find familiar of Halea herself. It glows when I get near the talisman… which it hasn’t done yet…” She added the last part more quietly.<br/><br/>“Oh, I see now how your friend truly was sarcastic when he called you a big charmer. You need help in that field. A lot.” I have a name, you know? Or should she take being called pretty face as a compliment?<br/><br/>“You are right. It’s probably a good idea to move back towards the bathing area. The talisman probably fell somewhere on my way here…” Nera was pondering how to say politely Alsiel could return to her guard duty if he felt like this was such a huge nuisance for him, but the weather took an unusual turn to worse. Nera had to hold her hem with her hand so it wouldn’t fly up to her ears.<br/><br/>Then lightning and thunder came over the camp. Nera’s ear flicked when she heard the lightning strike one of the camps and all the ruckus and hassle that followed such an incident. “Oh no… that sounds bad. I wonder if anyone got hurt. Perhaps…” She was going to say she should go check and offer her help if someone was hurt, but the evening got even worse before she had a chance to finish her sentence.<br/><br/>Weird creatures came from the woods. Nerissa had never seen such beings, but they didn’t look friendly. The brown ears went down and the beastblooded at her companions with a hesitant look, like she was looking for answers on how to deal with the situation. Oh, they could speak! Nerissa was going to suggest negotiating, but these… whatever they were, were here for blood.<br/><br/>Everything was so chaotic! Nera understood they had to fight to defend themselves. Of course she wanted to help too, but in all the confusion and nervousness she couldn’t remember any spells that would be useful at this moment. Because of her unfortunate tail the only spell that came to her mind now was a spell for balding, which wouldn’t help in this situation at all. Instinctively Nera moved a couple steps back, behind Mathis’ back which felt like the safest place she could be at the moment.<br/>
