Upon watching Enoch extend his hand out to Ooro, she grasped it without second thought and joined in the huddle along with the rest. Her face glowed up instantly, holding them tightly to her. Her eyes crept open, noticing a tiny figure behind Altheron...
"Osseus, what are you waiting for?" She outstretched her arm and pulled him into the massive bear hug with a toothy grin on her face, before continuing on.
I'm so happy I met you all. Her eye began to water slightly, before lifting up a nail to wipe away the tear.

The priest leapt to his feet, grabbing Daryn, Altheron, and by extension, Luair, into a group hug with one of his arms before holding his free hand out for Ooro to get pulled up and into the huddle as well. "Everyone's okay," he sighed. I'm so glad."What wouldn't hinder the group is if someone could start a damn fire!!" Zerah shouted the last part, somewhat annoyed as the night was creeping ever closer and they'd surely regret it. Daryn was pulled into a hug with her closer comrades (and the small elf). She was alright for about two seconds, but soon she felt a fear in her stomach and wiggled out of what had now become a giant group hug huddle when Ooro and Osseus had joined in. "Alright, alright already- yes, we're okay, hah." Daryn laughed emptily. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm tired, hungry, and a little chilly. Let's go set up camp, alright?" She said, and started her own way toward the strange thing that had joined their guild over the course of the battle, whom she'd heard shouting about starting a fire. Halfway toward the newly constructed fire-pit, a nagging voice in the back of her mind started bubbling forth. You're doing it again, you idiot. You're pushing them away. You told yourself you wouldn't do that anymore- not after that battle. But here you are, running away from your feelings.She stopped in her tracks and looked back at her comrades. Her friends. She decided for once, she'd wait for them to catch up.

Rezza sighed scanning the area, slipping his staff onto his back as he did so. The remaining members appeared fine, at the very least none of their injuries seemed life-threatening. Bringing in a breath he, yet again, gathered up as much speed as he could and set off for the opposite end of the stadium. He did notice one of the fighters lying on the ground, that strange kid standing nearby. The healer made a note to check over her as he made his way back. Nightfall made the air considerably cooler as he ran his sights on the wall just in front of him. Soon enough he finally reached where he had left his bag, picked up the knife he had thrown down near it and gently dropped it into the bag before sealing it. The bag plopped back to the ground as Rezza readied himself for another leap. Clumsily clambering up the wall once more he peaked his head over and grabbed his pouch, before dropping to the ground. Swiftly he fastened it back around his hips and tied the bag onto it, and began the trek back toward camp. His pace slowed as he approached Galystris, his gaze flicking over her form to asses her injuries. From what he could see he would not need to use something quite as strong as with the members he had previously tended to. While he wanted to assist her the child nearby drew him away, if he could he wanted to be ignored by others as much as possible only speaking to those who needed help. walking slowly toward the pile of lumber Zerah had gathered hoping a fire would gather most of the others in one place and distract everyone else while he spoke to only those he needed to.

Mimisko heard someone yelling that.
Oh crap! That's right. It's night time!
Mimisko feel like she has to do something. She sees Daryn halfway to the newly constructed fire-pit. This sparked an idea for Mimisko.
"Hey Celty, can you hold on for one moment? I gotta help someone."
Mimisko ran off for a moment, she sees a piece of wood on the ground she grabs it with her hand that is not hurt and used a bit of fire magic that does hurt. Luckily being a fire mage, this doesn't hurt. This does cause the top of the piece of wood to be on fire. She walks towards Daryn.
"Hey, I hope you don't mind a bit of help." Mimisko says has she offerd the torched wood to Daryn while smiling.

You're not so bad, you know that?" Daryn said, mussing the top of Mimisko's head. "Good work out there."

Mimisko smiled
"Thank you. And I'm sure you did a good job in battle."
Mimisko bowed as she said.
"I gotta get back to Celty. I hope everything goes well~."
Mimisko heads back to Celty as she waves to Daryn.
She's at Celty now.
"I'm sorry about that. Back to where we were."
Mimisko then lend out her hand that was hurting.

"How are you guys feeling after that battle, eh?" She stretched back and forth, happy to be able to move well again. Altheron skidded in his tracks as he met Daryn's question, a bit shocked at the warrior's new, cheerful disposition. She seemed to repel his advances back when they first met. Nevertheless, Altheron grinned in the same manner as he did back at the church at Daryn. "I feel great....," he spoke softly as his cheeks began to flush. "Altheron, Luair, glad to see you're doing alright." "Altheron!" she smiled widely, "Oh thanks the Gods! You're alright! Enoch told me you were collapsed on the other side of the arena..." Altheron then turned back to his now-awake elven friends, hopping up and down with Luair in his arms as he eyed their smiles- especially Enoch's. He would've said something about his observation when suddenly Enoch jumped up and pulled both him and Luair, as well as the rest of his friends into a great big hug. Altheron let go of Luair mid-hug, too flustered at the embrace to be able to carry her any longer. He giggled throughout the duration of the hug until he noticed Daryn tear herself out of it, saying something about a fire. It was then that he noticed the night fully creeping in over the guild, the cold air hitting him once the warmth of the hug left his body. He noticed the makings of a campfire being started not too far from where the group stood, and Daryn standing near it. The shaman turned around to face her, leaving Luair in the process, but before he could even take the first step, a strange sensation grazing his neck made him stop dead in his tracks. Squirming a bit, Altheron felt around his shirt collar to find a small piece of paper stained in dried blood. When did this get here? he thought, staring at the page. A look of utter confusion covered his face as he squinted at the smeared text, rotating the paper every few seconds to see if it'd help make the scribbles any clearer, but his efforts were made in vain. None of it made sense. Not even the first sentence, which bared his only name. "Uhhhhhh....... right." he said finally, tucking the note back where he found it as he joined Daryn near the other group. He figured he'd ask someone about it later if it actually meant anything.

He barely managed to get a few feet away from Galystris before Altheron managed to carry Luair over to their position. He'd really have to tell Altheron not to do those sorts of things, considering the connotations behind it. That was his job, after all.
"Hey! Luair!" He greeted before shooting a death glare at the ice mage. A perfect opportunity presented itself in front of him as he gestured his head to Luair as if to say "now's the perfect time to apologize to her". He stepped off slightly to give the two a bit of room, worried about the whole "overprotective boyfriend" vibe he was giving off. Even if he explicitly told Galystris that that wasn't the case. Emily((woAH SORRY FOR THE LATE RESPONSE REAL LIFE SURE IS GREAT //shot)) She cocked an eyebrow as if to say 'I'm not sure if you were listening to what I said earlier' in response. Galystris stepped a bit closer to the both of them, and waved lightly to Luair "Look, I was rather rude and inconsiderate out there, and my deepest apologies for that." She gave a polite smile to Luair, and completely didn't bother looking back at osseus for confirmation if that would suffice. If you were hurt too badly I can numb it a bit, but I would understand if you didn't trust my handle on magic." She gave a sheepish laugh. God, now that she looked at Luair's cuts, she realized just the extent of the damage she had done. "A-and again, my deepest apologies for that...." That sounded much more sincere than her last attempt at rebuilding things. She was actually sorry what a shock woah. (( melty)) ((I know you guys alrady kinda left so you can ignore this message or assume she said it before they left))

"Alright, alright already- yes, we're okay, hah." Daryn laughed emptily. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm tired, hungry, and a little chilly. Let's go set up camp, alright?" Enoch chuckled and disbanded the hug a few moments after Daryn shimmied herself out of it. It had completely slipped his mind how late it was getting, and with the sun setting surely everyone was feeling tired and hungry after that entire ordeal. Lightly patting Ooro and Altheron, he pulled back and glanced over his shoulder. "You got it," he called after her, about to turn and follow when he brought his attention to Osseus, gripping his shoulder gently. The little thief had gone above and beyond both times in the face of a powerful monster, scaling Fearos and going toe to toe with Tairaga multiple times. Saying that the priest was impressed would be an understatement. "Osseus, you did a great job out there. Keep up the excellent work," he commended, smiling a bit before turning and catching up with Daryn who was midway to the new camp. The realization dawned on him that she was standing and waiting for them when he noticed her holding what appeared to be their fire starter. He couldn't help but let that little smile tugging at his lips grow a little more. "Hey, is that our fire for the night?" He looked down at the torch and raised an eyebrow before shooting a glance towards Zerah by the unlit firepit.

"Uh....this is gonna be gross, so if you could look away..." He lingered off. He brushed his hair out of his face, revealing the strange cork once more, taking it out and began pouring the strange liquid onto the wood. His blood worked as an oil last time he checked, so in theory, this should get the fire going rather quickly. When he had gotten a good amount of blood onto the wood, he corked his eye back up and waited. The blood began to bubble once more, forming a mouth that began to screech, causing Zerah to cover his ears. The screeching lasted about 5 seconds before it ceased and became blood again. "Th-there..." Zerah said, hesitantly, hoping he hadn't just scared Manasa off. "Now, all we need is for someone to light this baby." Zerah said with a smile. Manasa shivered as she watched the strange him uncork his eye and let loose a torrent of strange black ooze. She would never verbalize her unease, and did her best to keep a neutral expression, though everything about Zerah's... sludge was extremely off putting to her. The others began to circle about the fire, to which she gave polite nods as they grew near. She wanted to keep everybody on good terms so that hopefully the discussion of teamwork could hopefully get somewhere. As Daryn stood my the fire, torch in hand Manasa gave the fighter a reaffirming smile. Daryn had been the one to help her after she was punished in the first battle, and she was a member of the guild Manasa wished to grow closer to. Manasa's eyes strayed to the flickering flame of the torch and an idea clicked in her head. Rylan had saved candles within his pockets. While only two- they should be enough to make a small memorial to the Shadow Slayer's fallen guild members. "Excuse me," Manasa said, stepping back from the campfire. "I have something I need to go get from the woods, I'll be back soon." She journeyed out of the coliseum and into the outlining woods. She needed flowers. Unfortunately, the time of year limited her selection, though autumn did bring with it deep purple heather and static, clutches of bright red berries, sprays of chrysanthemums and aster an artist's pallet of foliage. Manasa gathered what she could and scurried back to the camp, not wanting to be alone at night. As she did so, the familiar sound of a stream caught her attention. The stream Manasa discovered was small, if you were to step into it it would barely go past your ankles, yet seeing and hearing it gave her an idea. She had no time to implement this idea now though, and finished her trudge towards camp, sitting in front of the campfire and spreading her collection out before her. Taking two autumn leaves and her sewing needle in hand, she carefully started to sew the two together, and then another and another until she had made a small circle of leaves which she then began to fill with flowers.

Before he could think of anything else to tell Altheron, Ooro pulled him into a giant group hug that consisted of almost everyone he cared about and then some. It felt nice to be included in something, especially with people he adored. He reveled in the giant group hug for the greatest few moments in his life before Daryn broke it off to start a fire. An emptiness seemed to be filled in that moment, in a way.
The he realized the note he slipped Altheron. If he was going to read it, especially in front of everyone, it would spell disaster for his reputation wit this tight-knit group.
His heart dropped even further after Enoch congratulated him and left for the campfire. Calling a beloved member out on something that was clearly a jealousy issue that linked to his past would essentially condemn him. He fiddled with his hood a bit more as he sat with the rest of the group at the campfire, then realizing how disgusting he looked. He was caked in the blood of his enemies, his friends, and himself with all of his clothes being nearly torn to shreds. There would be no way any seamstress out in Ignis would be able to get blood out of white linen, so he elected to get new shirts later.

"Hey, is that our fire for the night?" He looked down at the torch and raised an eyebrow before shooting a glance towards Zerah by the unlit firepit. "Guess so!" Daryn smiled. With Altheron and Enoch now having joined her, she then added her torch to the wood pile, causing it to become a sufficient heat source. She nodded at Manasa when the woman had done so to her, and nodded again when she declared her slight absence. Sitting down, Daryn took of her quiver and dumped out its contents, making sure not to let the arrows topple out. Her goal was to get to the food, which was once again crushed. "Enoch, Altheron? Food?" she said to her friends. She then looked to the man with the odd arms. "And you? Your name's Zee, right? I have some meat and berries here if you're hungry." She held out the tattered food bags and waited for her friends to join her and relax.

She held out the tattered food bags and waited for her friends to join her and relax. Zee?? Are you kidding me. My name isn't THAT hard to remember... Zerah thought to himself. He noticed Enoch shot him some sort of look and Zerah's face turned to a scowl for a moment. The hell is with him? He turned to the woman, trying to give the most sincere smile he could, although there was a trace of annoyance he couldn't quite shake. "Heheh, it's Zerah, and no thank you. I'm not hungry." He stated as politely as he could. "Also, thank you for starting the fire. I had been waiting quite some time." Zerah held his arms out as though to warm his hands, although, there was no need. He couldn't feel anything in them. He had really just wanted to get the fire going so that he could scope out who would be best to involve himself with. Zerah sat down in the dirt and continued to pretend to warm his hands. His masks eyes began to become illuminated, as well as his own eye, as the darkness of the night began to set in.

Rezza stopped near the fire that was now roaring up out of the wood. With his outfit now covering considerably less he shivered as he sank to the ground, ripping both of his bags open. He had little desire to socialize with anyone here and his focus on his job was swiftly waning after having to interact with people, especially after his interaction with Altheron. Gently he dug out one of his vials of water, from his pouch, and downed it before placing it back. Rezza looked into the bag tied to the right side of his belt; aside from the knife all that was there were a few bloodied cloths, his recently acquired hood, and much of the rest of the space was filled with the cured meat he had been carrying around. The healer felt especially famished after today's events and certainly did not want to spare any energy on scavenging from the many corpses around at the moment. A shaky hand uncovered it a small amount and pulled off a roughly finger sized-portion, resealed the bag and popped the piece into his mouth. Sighing he slumped down trying to rest himself near the warmth for a few minutes, undoing his hair and letting it fall onto his shoulders.

Her attempts to apologize had failed rather terribly, so she decided not to bother with these people anymore. Galystris was aware that this would most likely come back to bite her later, but hopefully once they all gathered in one place, Luair will actually hear her when she apologized. Galystris noticed people all moving in one direction, go presumably what was their new camp. "Ah, maybe we're gonna get some rest." She muttered, a light smile crossing her face. The Mage trudged along after them,as that was most likely what she was supposed to do.
