"Come on! Hurry up already!" The Peacer Fellox called over his shoulder, his tone slightly annoyed. He had wanted to come to the Caverns for a while, especially after hearing about Si'hana's death. "I'm coming, sheesh. Not all of us can move at the speed of light, you know. There are those of us that like to smell the roses." The Evren Bruiser retorted, although this was muffled through the tiny bouquet of roses. She glared at the Peacer before saying, "Don't you think it would be wise to lave something for Si'hana instead of us just sitting there in bloody silence? Don't you think that she wouldn't want that?" The Peacer rolled his eyes before saying, "Let's just go so we can get down there! Preferrably before any Akail get to us..."
"And what's wrong with running into Akail?"
This new voice took the Peacer and Evren by surprise. It was Amar, the new Sulkuhna at the Arena. His eyes were steely as he said, "I think it'd be fun to meet an Akail. After all, life wasn't meant to just be all humdrum, nothing exciting, you know?" He glared at the Peacer, Irenth, who looked like he was going to question him. "Now, let's both behave oursevles, or I'll get Aila involved in this. Yeraith, Irenth, are we understood?"
The begrudging nods seemed answer enough for him, for he took lead of the party and lead the way deeper into the Caverns.
