A ear bud in his right side was unintentionally hidden, giving him entertainment until Sarah broke the silence between them. He shook his head at first but it looked as if she wanted a conversation, bond with the people in her party? Whatever reasons, he pulled the bud from his eat and turned to look at her.<br/>"I have not, have you killed many monsters before?"<br/>He was sure that she had, the information she read on the children of Ares meant they were known for war and battle. He was about to do the real thing, the other partner he knew nothing about. Lack of knowledge made him feel uncertain, but he did not let it consume him. When they arrived he was relieved to get out of the car and strap his pack to his back. It seemed they were on their own finally. Glancing at the map and using the one he had generated over on the car ride over, he felt he had a good idea where they should go. His guard had never been lifted so high ever in his life, it was as if he knew the forest would attack them three all at once.
