Rose caught the look on the satyr's face as the four of them moved on, and it didn't exactly take her much effort to puzzle out the intent behind that look.  She was fairly sure that it was directed more towards the two elven sisters, rather than to herself, though.  Still, it was nice to draw at least some interest.  Thinking about it, she was reminded of old legends she'd heard about satyrs being ridiculously well-hung...  She wasn't really all that interested in finding out if they were true, though.<br/><br/>As they walked along afterwards, the conversation went in a direction that gave the shifter an excuse to bring up something she had noticed earlier...<br/><br/><em>"Hmm, nice to exist on a plane where such are one's weightest cares, I suppose?"<br/><br/>"Yes... or at least, I used to think so when such things were."<br/><br/>"Ah."</em><br/><br/>"By the way, that reminds me..."  She stated, shortly before teleporting them forward again.  "The two of you seem to be taking your ordeal fairly well, all things considered.  You both seem to be holding things together far better than I would have expected, given the circumstances.  I'm rather impressed."<br/><br/>Perhaps this would prod them into revealing a little more about what their lives under Astos had been like, or at least get them speculating on possible reasons why they didn't seem to be in as delicate a state as her own experiences were telling her they should have been...<br/><br/>Either way, nearly an hour later, as they continued on with their travels, she suddenly had them pull up short as she spotted something.  What was it, up in the tree line...  Archers?  Yes, yes it was.  Elven archers, to be precise.  Two male, two female, blue hair, leaf-patterned armor, fancy bows with words on them that, of course, she couldn't read...  Staring for an extra moment, she suddenly grinned and waved.<br/><br/>"There are a few archers in the trees up ahead."  She filled in her lover and their two travelling companions, as she continued to wave.  "Sentries, I think.  Were those usually posted near your home, Ama and Asha, or are we passing through somewhere else on the way?"<br/><br/>There was, after all, the possibility that the two elves were from some rich family that felt it necessary to post such a guard, or that the forest trail they were following led to some military training ground, or something...
