After the code word was decided upon in the Personaless chat Kaylah leapt back from battle to inform the rest of the team. She knew that Coffee wasn’t freed yet, and she didn’t want to risk him relaying it through their normal team chat in case the Shadow could gain access to Coffee’s phone. So she sent it to each member of Team 2 individually.

[Huntsmaster]: There is a new plan called operation Freezer Burn. When you hear Freezer Burn called, then it is time to unleash all of our Ice attacks into the Lover’s Shadow.  [Huntsmaster]: So anyone who is weak to Ice should move to the opposite side of the room as soon as you hear it called.

“I did not realize that we were in Azeroth. That sounds like something Varbu would say.”

Even the actual Hunter was taken back by Sophie’s actions once charmed. 

“For anyone curious, that is NOT a good thing. If Varbu wanted something dead, there was not much that could stop a rampaging Fury Warrior wielding swords forged by Odyn himself.”

- Michael -

“Are you leaving?” Seeing the whole chat blow up, Michael had decided to leave the complex for a bit. Get some air, touch some grass, all that good stuff. He’d noticed Kaylah and had waited before showing himself, face scrunched up in concern.

”Cause… If it’s about the shortening fuse of TNT that is everyone, I understand. But I don’t think it’ll truly help.“ He calmly walked over to Menel’s line of sight, cautiously reaching his hand out to pet him. At any sign that he was going to lose his hand, he’d pull back. “I’m…used to people leaving, though. I won’t stop you. Kinda debating just leaving myself.“

He’s so tired. By his family, he’s so damn tired.

The plan was to leave without anyone noticing. She didn’t want to create more problems given her... history. She asked Caligx if she was going to come with, however she insisted on finishing a few more weapons before leaving. Though it seemed with the fuss that Menel was making, her plan wasn’t going to happen. 

“Simple. ‘Serial killers got better treatment than Maruki did’. By this world’s standards I have done much worse things than anyone else in this group. It does not seem fair that I get such good treatment compared to him.”

Menel sniffed Michaels hand before nuzzling up into the pet. Almost as if thanking Michael for talking to Kaylah before she tried to leave the compound.

“So why keep someone who can kill on command without blinking an eye around with no problems around. When someone else who can’t do something so extreme gets such poor treatment.”

“Why are you being so fussy all of the sudden Menel?

She glanced at the Wolfhawk with annoyance prevalent on her face. She was trying to make sure all of the extra bags secured to his saddle were secure. She didn’t want anything to fall off while they were mid flight. She was dressed in full armor, strange for the Huntsmaster unless they were going into combat. 

Every time she tried to check to see if the extra bags were secured, Menel moved away from his rider. 

“Can you stop moving for five minutes to make sure everything is secure?”

“I can see why she’s being called a mom. From what I’ve seen she’s a very caring person and the title seems fitting.”

Eh-!? Wait, how did she know he was coming? It wasn’t like he tried to sneak up on people, but Raven wasn’t particularly one to announce his presence ever. Usually he surprised people when he showed up.

Hang on… “P-pup!?” First the team calls Adachi a dad, now he’s being called a pup??? Nooo thank you! He did not sign up to have parental figures, that ship sailed and sunk a long time ago!

She had responded without thinking and it wasn’t until Raven called her out did she fully process what she had said. She stopped stirring the stew for a few moments as she fully understood what she had called him. Her eyes narrowed as she shifted her attention fully away from Raven... and the food. 

“I... uh...”

It was rare to see the usually composed hunter visibly flustered. 

“Goldrinn please help me.”

[lupusvenari]

“If you were trying to sneak up on me, you are going to need to try a lot harder pup. Food should be ready soon.”

Kaylah chuckled as she didn’t look up from the meal she was prepping. While there were some similarities to the foods prepared here and in Azeroth. Today she was preparing a fragment stew, the smell of cooking meat is what probably drew one of the pups over towards the kitchen.

[lupusvenari]

Along the edge of the compound sat the Huntsmaster. Her backpack resting in her lap as she looked for something within the magical bag. Once she found what she was looking for she pulled out a small chest and sat the backpack aside. She opened the chest and fished around for another object inside. After some searching she pulled out a green sphere and set the box right next to the backpack. She wasn’t sure if her toys worked in this world, but it wouldn’t hurt to try. Covering the green sphere with her hands, Kaylah poured the little magic she had into the object and set it in front of her. It took a moment but from the sphere grew a magnificent translucent green dragon. 

“Ysera.”

The Huntsmaster spoke as she shed a tear at the Dragon Aspect. There were so many things she needed to be doing right now. Despite knowing that Ysera is safe within Ardenweld, she couldn’t help but still recall the Nightmare and how it claimed the Aspect... and how close she was to slipping into it as well. Her saving grace was that as a hunter, she didn’t have the strongest ties to the Emerald Dream. Though she was still connected through the Worgen Curse.

“I need to protect them all. I can’t fail them like I did you or those who perished in Teldrassil”

It was almost worrying how many people here apparently didn’t know how to relax. Maybe he should enjoy the beaches in his timeline more. Copper looks up from the book he’s reading, preferring to stay farther away from the water and the kids running around, and closes it on a scarred finger.

“Well, I don’t think we’re keeping any populations in check this trip.”

He jokes lightly, standing up and dusting himself off. He’s sure he looks a little silly, wearing a long-sleeved swim shirt with a higher collar to cover as many of his scars as possible, but he has a feeling Kaylah won’t be purposefully malicious, even if they didn’t really know each other.

“Kinda depends on what you like doing, I guess. Most people go in the ocean and swim, or go and play games, or stuff like that. Or look for seashells. That’s what my kid and I did last time I went to the coast.”

“So is that why Sarus insisted on leaving all weapons back at the Inn?”

Kaylah could count the number of times she’s been without a weapon nearby on one hand. It’s just how Azeroth worked... there was always a constant threat of attack even during times of ‘peace’. When she spent her time off at Trueshot Lodge or in Darnassius, she still kept her bow within her backpack for quick access if a fight were to break out. 

“It’s strange... not having to be prepared for a fight to break out at any moment. It is rare to see children living so care free in Azeroth.”

She spoke as her attention was turned to the ocean. The sight of children playing without care was a rare sight to see in Azeroth. Even in the main city of the Alliance, children weren’t this carefree.  A small smile came onto her face as she returned her attention back to Copper. 

“Interesting, I did not realize you could do this many things at the coast that did not involve fighting.”

[lupusvenari]

It took at least ten minutes to convince the Huntsmaster that weapons were not required for this trip. Yet she still seemed unconvinced of the fact, thankfully she (eventually) agreed to leaving her weaponry at the inn. With that now sorted out there was a single problem remaining, the fact that Kaylah looked very unsure of what she should be doing. Currently she was in her human form wearing a dark blue one piece swimsuit with an orange stripe on either side of the straps and a stripe of light blue running down each side of the swimsuit. Gone was her usual air of confidence as she glanced around, trying to understand what the other people were doing.

“So how do you relax at a beach? I have only visited back home when I was hunting for food or to help keep the Murloc population in check.”

Thanks to her range, Kaylah managed to avoid being hit by the collateral damage of Ryoji’s attack. However her animal companions were not so lucky and were caught in the crossfire. Pulling her ears back she whistled to recall her pets to get them healed up. This fight was going slightly better than before but with the number of people mentally impaired they needed to do something before conditions got worse. However, before the Huntsmaster could say anything two volleys of arrows came down on them.  Despite being clad in armor the arrows still hurt where they pierced through the armor. 

“They need to calm the hell down or else we might be spending more time fighting each other than the enemy! We all know how that goes when we are not in the middle of combat! ”

She called out to those in range of her as she shifted her attention back to her wounded companions. Her hands glowing green as she healed the arrow wounds on their bodies.

Kaylah sat alone fiddling with some leather in her hands quietly humming to herself. Between the leather she requested from Mitsuru and the hides and bones harvested from the local wildlife, the Hunter found herself with more than enough material to work with. Normally she did this while in her Worgen form, she was more comfortable in it after all. However, she knew that they were not at the Compound and therefore did not want to risk drawing unwanted attention to herself.  Things were going fine until she thought that she saw something out of the corner of her eyes. She stopped what she was doing to see what it was and found nothing there. Then came the whispers, she knew immediately what these were and who they were from.

‘Such a heavy burden you carry. Soon you will be free of it’

“Nonononononnononon”

She immediately stood up and the leather was thrown to the ground. A hand was on her head as she stumbled towards the exit of the inn. Her free hand started to shift into her true form as a dark shadow hovered over her and in a second gone was the human, replaced with the Werewolf. Her eyes opened, but there was a strange orange tint not usually present.

‘Shun all of those who do not share our bond of flesh.’ 

It took the hunter two tries to get the door open and as soon as she was outside she dropped to all fours and took off running deeper into the forest. She took off with the speed of a cheetah with no signs of slowing down. Something had to be wrong, her backpack with her weapons and armor remained in the inn as if forgotten.

@tricksteroffate said:  "Those... certainly are notes. Of some kind. With a very pretty alphabet."

That was not the kind of reaction she was expecting from either group. Looking at the image she sent to the group it took her a few minutes to realize the problem. They were talking in Darnassian, Caligx was taking notes in Darnassian... a language that no one else knew besides them. Slapping herself in the forehead she relayed their mistake to Caligx, who’s response was coving her face with her hand out of embarrassment. 

[Huntsmaster]: Give me a few minutes to translate that into Common.

Huntsmaster is typing . . .

[Huntsmaster]: One - Probably has several different forms Two - Bow form should be tanked by using a mobile ranged tank Three - Swords should be tanked by a standard tank? Four - Blank side is unknown, should be concerned Five - Room could be broken by boss, be aware of that Six - Could be a council fight?? Maybe more will appear as time comes?  She sent the translated notes to both chats with the Leader Chat being sent first and then the Planner Chat.

[lupusvenari]

Once they returned from the other world, Kaylah returned to her room where Caligx was waiting for her. While she was relatively unharmed, exhaustion was evident on the Worgen’s face. She took a few steps into the room and collapsed to the ground. Standing up Caligx went to shut the door behind Kaylah and then tend to the exhausted hunter. After a little bit of healing and something to eat Kaylah is feeling a lot better and explained what happened during the battle. 

While the conversation initially started in common, it quickly switched to Darnassian once the topic of previous battles came up. Neither one of the adventurers wanted to worry their new companions of the gritty details of some of the battles they’ve faced in Azeroth. After a few hours of discussion and some of the important points written down on some paper Caligx had in her backpack. 

Kaylah opened up the planner’s chat and took a picture of the notes they came up with. There were phrases scratched out all across the paper and several arrows pointing from one phrase to another.

[Huntsmaster]: Caligx and myself talked over what happened and we made some notes on the battle.
