[Killing Spree]

The warders surrounding the party suddenly turned and formed two lines, the largest of them bowing low in an elven fashion. A puzzled looking elven man and a younger elven boy was rushing toward the party.

Locke held up his hand, motioning for his little brother to stop in his tracks. He filed between the two lines of warders, eyeing the party with a confused and protective expression. He looked at them all, his eyes catching on each of them. He inhaled sharply, his dark brown eyes widening. He hissed back to his brother. "Shaw, run! Get Arihel! HURRY!"

The boy gulped, eyeing the party, then dashed off back through the woods, as his brother instructed. Shaw dashed to the Ravenwood house, where Chani and Lynae were chatting peacefully. Out of breath, he gasped to the girls. "Miss Chani!! Locke sent me to get you! At the gate...!"

Chani looked at Lynae puzzedly, then got up, pointing Shaw to the house. "Go get yourself a drink." She then tugged on Lynae's arm. "Let's go!" The two of them made their way fleetly through the woodland town in the direction of the gate.

Locke then hissed a password at the warders. "Rad'raebael!" The creatures nodded in unison, then shuffled off. Locke exhaled, then looked to the party with a smirk. "Welcome to Ravenwood." He exhaled, then looked at Jas with a smirk. "Do I know you?"
