A growling laugh sounded from the other side of the cloth at Frea's threat.<strong>"Honestly, I wish you would try something like that so we could make some measure of progress out of all this banter."</strong>Though before the psion could make good on her promise, Zoey boldly intervened and tore the cloth free of the large cage.  Light flooded the formerly darkened space, causing the creature (http://static.desktopnexus.com/thumbnails/453179-bigthumbnail.jpg) to close its eyes to gain an opportunity to adjust to the sunlight.  It was more than enough time for those looking on to recognize what, at first glance, appeared to be an ordinary tiger.  However, anything longer than a fleeting glimpse would allow the observer to see the large feline had an otherworldly look to it that was most predominate in that its fur was so vivid that one could not tell if it flawlessly reflected the sun's light or actually had its own luminous qualities to it.  When its eyes finally did open, they revealed piercing yellow hues that seemed just as bright as its fur while also displaying a keen intellect behind them.<br/><br/><strong>"Ah, this is much better.  Thank you."</strong>He said to the bunnygirl who was generous enough to grant at least part of his request.<strong>"See?  Now was that really worth all that fussing over?"</strong>Once one's curiosity was finally appeased regarding the contents of the cage, it is likely that the onlooker would then notice the runic carvings tracing the thick steel bars making up the cage that seemed entirely seamless without any obvious signs of a lock or hinge.<strong>"Much like that chest of gold there, I was to be a gift to what I suspect to be a rather pompous noble regardless of my own thoughts on the matter.  Though, I suspect that's why they fitted me with this."</strong>He said, turning his head aside to reveal a thick leather collar fastened around his neck.<strong>"It's an obedience collar of sorts, one that prevents me from inflicting harm upon whomever claims me as theirs.  Or at least that's what I suspect given the amount of time I've had to study its crafting.  As fun as it is being confined to a cage and adorned with this pricy necklace, I would much rather speak to a certain enchanter who is responsible for its creation so that I can... convince him to remove it for me."</strong>The tiger's radiant yellow eyes focused on each of your group in turn expectantly, showing that he has nothing to hide but his growing irritation towards his imprisonment.<strong>"Is that enough background to warrant my release from here?  These sigils have been designed to prevent me from doing so through my traditional means... but if one of you would be so kind as to cast some sort of spell or enchantment on me, I would greatly appreciate it."</strong>
