"Yup." Sherwood says. "Ah like being ah bit see through. Ah'm never trying to hide who Ah am anyway." he smiles lightly before keeping his eyes on the woods. Nishka certainly doesn't have to follow his eyes either, the black shape in the underbrush is visible against the green. It's white tusks half the length of it's body, the Boarbatusk is of average size but it makes it no less of a push over.

"Howah bout we get out of this ahn start over; Ahll truths this time?"

[MissyMidna]

Noctis glared at the person who oh so rudely spoke to Argent. "Mind further explaining why Antra isn't to be trusted? He seemed fine to me. He didn't treat my partner as uncouthly as you." He crossed his arms over his chest. "We would like to see Deliria, but at his best convenience, not ours."

[Flooberoid]

Persimmon looked up and saw the crowd at the inn. Probably nothing related to their case, but he was waiting on new information right now anyway... Couldn't hurt to check it out. With that decided, he dropped his hood to avoid arousing suspicion and then blended with the crowd to the best of his ability (which admittedly was not very well given his choice of attire and above average height).

[CptSteel]

"You don't seem to into this whole thing, good sir." Argent remarked at the man. Argent thought that getting real information would probably start at this guy. "Tell me, what do you think of Huntsman?" Argent paused to look at the man's expression."I asked the man who you mistrust so much the very same question. I do not expect the very same answer." Argent smirked. He was getting confident.

[Ordelis]

"Huntsman? And what exactly are you planning to do once you've heard my answer? Your hear looking for answers it's obvious. But why should I trust you when I don't even know who you are let alone your names" glaring in Noctis's direction. "What you see here is an ordinary village, not hurting anyone or bothering anything, and yet here comes in two strangers asking questions and demanding answers. Tell me what do you really think of Antra?"

"Only If you promise you won't tell anyone! it's a Secret!" Nishka said facing Sherwood with an index finger over her lips. "Alright you! buzz off before anyone else sees you!" facing the Boarbatusk she slams her knuckles together, upon impact a faint white glow emanates from her fists, with a burst from her feet she charges at the Grimm fist primed to strike. At the same time with a battle cry roar the Boarbatusk spins up and dashes into Nishka's fist. The impact sends both combatants backwards, Nishka sliding away on her feet regaining balance, while the Boarbatusk is momentarily stunned vulnerable.


Inside the inn is an regular scene of rowdy men clearly drunk off a day of work. There was laughter, shouting, the sound of things being broken, merry being made. All of the inhabitants were wearing some variant of white clothing whether its was their jacket, pants, or hat, among this there was another trait they shared. They acted rather barbaric,
 "You lyin scum! I oughta take 'yer arm if it meant you'd stop stealin!"
"By Rahasya's name You wouldn't give up your Blessing if it meant your life!"
"You'd best be thankin Rahasya for I woulda ripped 'yer worthless head off if it weren't for the Blessing!"
"HarHar! Blessed be for Rahasya a worthy exchange for the lives we live!"
"Though I still miss the old days, true shame we give that up but no matter!"

One voice in particular was familiar to Persimmon

"Where is he eh!? That thinker of my friend is he still sulking in the Hall!?" a booming and powerful voice stood out from the rest. Standing noticeably larger then anyone in the room at 7ft, Deliria somehow carried a thick amount of both muscle and fat, a dominating figure sporting a thick blonde beard and a bush of raggedy hair. He wore a toga accented heavily with yellow patterns that was clearly stained and unkempt in multiple areas. "I'll go get him don't fret!, oh and Terg a moment!" calling over one of the drunken men he leaned down so less people could hear him in a hushed tone "I've misplaced my key to...those, go make sure it hasn't been tampered with yes?" with a nod Terg wandered off out the inn and in a particular direction, while Deliria walked back towards the Hall Persimmon came from.

[willow_lark]

"Ah do that." Sherwood says. Anything else he wanted to say is cut off as the girl runs to fight the Grimm. Words of warning die on his voice as she goes fist first into the Boarbatusk, cutting off it's rampant charge.

Already on his feet, he jogs up next to her with his hunting knife drawn. "Ah'm, ah, not much without ah bow." he says behind her. There's no regret in his voice, merely a statement of fact. Sherwood pauses as the Boarbatusk snorts and paws at the ground. As it lowers it's head to charge again, Sherwood speaks up.

"Can you launch it up ahnd back?"

[CptSteel]

"Name. No 's'. I've already told you mine. And you should trust us based on the fact that we are outsiders. We aren't wrapped up in this whole shindig. Well, that depends on how this plays out. Now, how about instead of me answering your question; you answer mine. After all, I asked first." Argent said with a smile. This guy was not really fitting with the tone of the village. 

[Flooberoid]

Persimmon pinned Deliria the moment he saw him... Although a man looking like that could probably be tracked from a mile away by the naked eye. Could follow him home... but he'll probably run into Argent and Nocty anyway. I'm more interested in this new character. He held the unknown key in his hand and smirked as he pinned this Terg fellow. It was high time he finally got around to tailing someone like he originally planned.

[Ordelis]

"No" The man said with a flat stare looking Argent straight in the eyes. "Why should I be the one being interrogated in my own village. Leave, there's nothing of interest for you here,I don't know what you came here looking for but it would be in everyone's favor if you were to just leave" The man said as he started to take steps towards the door leading out of the building.


"Easy!" Nishka hollers with an explosion off her feet she zig zags in an unpredictable pattern towards the Boarbatusk, unable to keep up with her the Grimm is disorientated trying to aim where to charge. With a swift motion Nishka reaches the creature and grabs it by the tusks, in one fluid motion she picks up the creature in a sideways movement and throws the Boarbatusk into the cliff wall with great force slamming it into the rock wall where Sherwood was standing.


It was unclear as to where exactly in the town Terg was going as he wobbled around the street clearly drunk but nonetheless it looked like he knew where he was going as he deliberately made turns throughout the village. "I wonder how mines doing...A real waste really to lock them up...Still he wouldn't like it if he knew we still had them" Terg absentmindedly said to himself.

[CptSteel]

Argent looked to Noctis with wide eyes, unsure of what to do. The man was the best chance Argent had got at finding out what he wanted to know. The man wasn't hostile, so Argent shot down his own idea of attacking him. "Noctis, what do we do? Do we let him go?" Argent whispered to his partner.

[willow_lark]

His brow rising at just how "easy" the girl did in fact fulfill his request, Sherwood is already moving towards the wall. he jumps and uses his weight to push the Grimm down on it's back as opposed to it landing on it's feet. Hoping a the boar Grimm will have similar body structure to a wild boar, Sherwood straddles the upside down Grimm and slashes at the boar's neck.

He cuts at all the critical points he can remember on a boar's underside. His memory is good as he slashes half a dozen places.  The Grimm is far tougher to cut into than a mortal animal, but his knife is well honed and cuts as deep as the blade can. The thought that the beast could flip over if it proves tough enough doesn't even cross Sherwood's mind, all of his attention goes into the accuracy and precision of his cuts.

[MissyMidna]

"So touchy," Noctis mocked. "Let's just go. It's not like he was of any help anyway."

Noctis turns around pulling Argent with him. This was a fail. Can't let something like this happen again because now we brought some unwanted attention to ourselves, Noctis tells himself. Once outside Noctis searches for the sneaky fox, seeing as he was nowhere to be found he just decided to aimlessly walk around and see what's exactly the big fuss about this town.

"Well shit that failed. I really don't have much of a plan up to this point." Noctis sighed.

[CptSteel]

"That was my plan. This whole thing has become such a pain." Argent remarked with a soft, bitter sigh of defeat. This was a fail. "I would say we ask around more, but we've brought too much attention to ourselves already. Let's just snoop from a distance. Like if there are any inns or pubs around here, we can see what's happening without getting involved. Hell, I could probably eavesdrop pretty easily." Argent says with a twitch of his faunus ears.

[Flooberoid]

Persimmon rolled his eyes. Drunk, looks like... This'll be too easy. Won't even have to hide if I keep a low enough profile. He nonchalantly stalked the new character, smiling amicably and waving to passers-by as he went.

[Ordelis]

As Argent and Noctis exited the building and began to wander off, before they could properly hide themselves a noticeably large man came lumbering toward them, clearly looking for something but caught the sight of two strangers "Well hello there! Yer a couple of faces I've never seen! I do hope you've been granted the warm Rahasya welcome! Come! Come join us there are festivities to join in! And have you seen my friend by any chance? Grumpy looking fella with glasses wearing green?"

"Trib! There ye are!" The large man said as he noticed the previous man identified as Trib sulking away. Trib turned around with a tired looking expression and greeted the man with a dull "Yes Deliria what is it you want"
"What I want? It's what YOU need is what I want! and what YOU need is to join our guests in merry making!" He said with an arm around Trib and facing Noctis and Argent. A massive smile plastered on the man called Deliria and an obvious expression of irritation on Trib.


With the Boarbatusk severely weakened by both Nishka's and Sherwood. Nishka jumps high in the air readying a finishing blow "Heads up!" She warns Sherwood. With the weight of the fall and with the power of the impact Nishka slams into the Grimm with a lethal ax kick  straight into it's underbelly as it hadn't recovered from Sherwood's assault. A huge dust cloud explodes from Nishka's attack as it engulfs the area, and the scattering remains of the Grimm with it. As the dust settles Nishka stands facing Sherwood with an innocent smile and a guilty look. "hehe...so about not fighting Grimm..."


As Terg made his way navigating through the village he settled upon his destination. A clump of what looked like thick bushes and vines against a cliff wall, in an area far away from the rest of the village away from prying eyes, no one could have possibly found this unless they knew what they were looking for. Suddenly Terg moved aside a specific bush that wasn't planted into the ground and set it aside, revealing a wooden door made against the rock wall with an ancient looking lock. Giving the lock and door a quick check, satisfied Terg set the bush back in place against the rock wall concealing the door and started heading back to the village.
