Off To Find The Wildcat, Is That Wise?

Salamandastron: Holding Cell One

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

The holding cell is about as bare as a room can get. A long smooth rock

shelf serves as a bed, and a medium-sized alcove to one side contains

lavaratory facilities. The door is a heavy-duty wooden affair, with iron

crosstrees and reinforced hinges, and is barred from the outside. A

small, square opening about head-level for most fully-grown hares is

closed with two sturdy iron bars, filling the space vertically. A small

horizontal slot lower down (about in the middle of the door) provides a

place to feed prisoners.

[Back] to the Caverns

Flare slipped from the infirm and got to where the holding cells where fairly easily and nods to the guards "I need to talk to the captive now." The two hare guards look at each other and then Flare as Flare speaks "He is unarmed, I am sure he won’t be a problem" They nod and let him talk to the captive. But will stay close.

Magus smirks as he looks at the hare "It is an old -friend- come to say hello he has, what do you want long eared one?"

Flare glares, your gonna show me where your new boss is as time is a little short right now " He nods to the two guards to help him, "I know a good spot to see really good let’s go" The two guards frown but they do follow him up to a viewing area where one sees the whole sea coast and the hare shoves the ferret over towards the edge “Now which direction and no funny stuff or ya get full of arrows MAGUS"

Salamandastron: Crater

• -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Salamandastron *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-

You are on the very top of the mountain of Salamandastron: a large, bowl-

shaped crater. The crater is not smooth, quite the contrary in fact.

Numerous boulders and large chunks of rock are strewn around randomly,

making the crater top just as craggy as any of the mountainside. The

crater provides an outstanding view of the surrounding country. The sea

sprawls off to the west as far as the eye can see, and north and south

along the endlessly rolling sand dunes. In the distant east, a tinge of

green is just visible from this height, marking the vegetation in the

foothills of the Western Mountains.

                 Visible Exits:

[N]ortheast [M]ountainside [Down] to Third Level

Windrose outs onto the crater and frowns as she sees the hares, and ferret outside, "Why is that ferret out here Flare and why are you outta bed?" She walks a little closer.

And another hare is out here getting some air and blinks, "Umm I don't think you should be questioning him Flare and surely not out here." Its Flint.

Magus glares as he is shoved to the edge almost and looks over the shoreline and then smirks as he speaks "Foolish hares. like your win the day...Patcheye is down the shore and soon be gone and you are not. More info for you, I think...not" He chuckles insanely at this.

Flare glares right back at the ferret and walks over slowly after taking a saber from a guard, he points it at the ferret, "Yeah and your here, I say you start saying more or I take care of you myself. You and your boss, and I mean Bora right now, is the reason I suffered in the northlands, he killed my mate and child and keep me and my friends captive, I sure de heck not gonna let any boss or friend of yours do anything to anyone again." Probably not the best plan seeing as he is not good with up close fighting and he is only a day or two from recovering from a fight on the beach.

Windrose frowns “Flare be careful, you need to let someone else handle this, you shouldn’t of even brought that ferret up here in the first place!"

Thunderwing is heading back and sees the group and the ferret and starts silently flying down towards them.

Flint frowns "The lass has a point Flare" He backs up to go call some guards or maybe get the Badger Lord to handle this.

Magus watches Flare and grins "Oh poor..poor hare he doesn't listen to his friends, he doesn’t" The ferret then makes a lightning quick movement and goes to kick the hare and disarm him of the saber and if he succeeds with that he will force his arm behind his back and lay the sword at his throat, “Maybe join lost ones you should...lost ones in the forever forest "

Flare looks at the others "You all need to shut up.." He feels the kick and goes to kick backwards at the ferret, that is till the ferret gets the upper paw and has the blade at his throat. Ok..ok so not the best plans, he should of listen.

Windrose cups a paw to her mouth and her ears droop.

Thunderwing lands behind the ferret and spreads out his wings, he then taps him on the shoulder with a talon and waits for a reply and he looks peeved beyond peeved.

Flint frowns and lays a paw on a dirk he has and stays where he is, a guard would come too late, "Ok ferret release him now." His eyes widen at the eagle and he adds "I think it be a wise plan and so does the bird behind you"

.

Magus sneers "I do not far for the old look behind you stupid long ears!" He goes to slit Flare's throat "Join the lost ones....." And then feels the talon and turns around, his mouth drops open and he drops the blade he had at Flare's throat and it’s one of those frozen on the spot and can't move moments.

Thunderwing doesn't waste time he goes to grab the ferret in his talons and makes a loud caw sort of noise as he speaks "Baddddddddd Ferretttttt You notta try kill friend." He makes sure to get a good grip and goes to fly the ferret upwards and to a place where he is not going to grab onto anything and lets go from fairly high up.

Flare falls forwards, not harmed but sort of dazed on what just happen, he hears Thunderwing and manages to move a little.

Windrose rushes forwards and goes to pull Flare away from the ferret and eagle and closer to the opening leading up here.

Flint tenses up, well eagles are surely large and he can only hope it’s on their side. He stays very alert, watching the eagle with wide eyes.

Magus starts to struggle as the eagle talons sink into his back and chest, he is then flown upwards and dropped from high up. There is no need to come see if he is dead, the ground took care of that and the deep wounds of the eagles talons helped as well.

Flare groans, he blinks towards Thunderwing and manages to see him grab the ferret before he passes out, maybe it’s best he goes back to the infirm.

Thunderwing does check the ferret, in fact he rakes his talons across the ferret a lot before flying and landing back on the crater looking at the hare's "Evil ferret be dead..is not living"

Flint nods "That is...good, but it may not help as we still have no idea where the wildcat is" He looks to a couple guards and another hare that came to see the eagle show up and speaks "You two...get Flare back to the infirm and make sure he STAYS in the infirm this time." He looks at Windrose, "You for finding a wildcat?" He then looks to Thunderwing “Any viewing of it..friend eagle?"

Flare is carried off to the infirm, and most likely a guard will make sure he stays this time.

Windrose looks worried and nods "I can join a rescue team, he couldn’t of gotten that far right?"

Thunderwing nods as he perns a wing “Thunderwing see Wildcat on beach, he has badger maid with him. Have muzzle on her and he look for ship, not see ship...maybe ship late or already come, Thunderwing not knowing"

Windrose nods, she has a dirk and she can run fast “I will go with you Flint, but are you sure you’re up to finding this wildcat?"

Flint gives a smile "Yes, I need to help and my side is healed enough to be helpful, sides if I don't start doing something I may never basically rejoin the patrol. I may as well start with helping free a badger maid. That and like said earlier, time is a thing in this lets go" He then heads out. “I’m getting my longbow and arrows"

Thunderwing nods and goes to take off in flight, he has talons and a sharp beak. And eagles are fairly large and flying helps spot beasts better.

Windrose goes to follow Flint outside and to the beach. Let’s see two hares and an eagle against a wildcat, hopefully that’s enough, or least enough to slow the wildcat down till back-up can come.
