Dina muttered barely audible, "Maybe they just want him."  The disdain on her face implied she was willing to consider simply handing him over.  He was a noble, or ex-noble, however those things worked.  One of the count's men.  She felt no loyalty to the stranger, certainly not enough to risk her fellow witches' lives over...no matter how infuriating they might be at times.  On the other hand, Dina had hoped to wring out a bit more information from Lord Milovanovic before tossing him aside.<br/><br/>Jet's keen eyes spotted the movement long before the raven could be detected.  His immediate sense of danger was sent back through the emotional connection he shared with his mistress.  "Something's coming."  Dina spoke out louder this time.  She stood up and moved closer to the cave mouth.  Jet returned within seconds and reported a lone figure making its way through the woods.  Dina's eyes narrowed.  A lone figure?  She turned to scan Lord Milovanovic again.  Either he wasn't important enough to warrant a full squad of men or he was very important and the witches were facing an experienced tracker.  As usual, the white haired witch kept her thoughts to herself.  She wanted to wait and see how things played out before further committing.<br/><br/>-----<br/><br/>The people of the village confirmed that Lord Milovanovic had been through Carig and had continued into the wood.  The human noble had seemed a very odd sort and it was nearly unanimous that the village was better off without him staying for any period of time.  At least one or two of the villages had warned Karsh that there were witches in the wood.  Many more suspected Karsh was familiar with such arts himself and didn't bother offering such a warning.  This was the closest Karsh had gotten to Jakov Milovanovic since he fled the count's court and the orc wasn't about to let him get away this time.
