Elliot quickly put away her violin; she picked up her case making her way to where the others were entering the forest. She was a bit hesitant at first; the voices still plagued her thoughts. She paused only for a second before stepping in behind the others. She wondered if she would get the chance to find that pool again. She almost felt as though she needed to go back. Elliot glanced at the others in front of her. The twins lead them easily enough though the dense forest. She looked to the side of her, where Madeline and Seamus were there names, where talking. Suddenly Seamus pushed ahead a little passing Elliot.

He Addressed who she thought was Elise, and had begun drilling her with questions that seemed a little personal. She frowned a little at this; they were all here to enjoy themselves and explore the ruins, not to answer to reporters. The reporter spoke with what he obviously believed to be some sort of charm; Elliot was not convinced at all. She opened her mouth only to pause closing it again, thinking for a moment. Maybe it was best not to get involved she thought, after all I’m sure Miss. Elise can handle herself. She quickly changed her mind after he referred to Mr. Thatcher as an old geezer. ‘How disrespectful of him.’

“You shouldn’t insult someone who was nice enough to even let you in here.” Elliot said from behind Seamus her voice annoyed. “And you could at least be a little more polite if you’re going to ask somebody questions like that.” So much for keeping to my own business she thought. She wasn’t sure if she had just done the right thing by interfering, but she honestly didn’t even care at this point. What the hell.

Nim frowned disappointed the twins had not noticed her. She took off heading back to the ruins eager to meet the others now. She made quick time not bothering to wonderer like she usually would. She stopped when the ruins came into sight. Her eyes stood on alert for the sounds that would surely be present. She could hear Jinan the gate keeper in the distance he seemed to be talking with the nervous boy who had been in the clearing earlier.

She perked her ears in the direction of the second group. She Choose to stay where she had landed, aware that the group would be passing underneath her shortly. Soon enough they came though the forest. Most were talking to each other while some hung back. Nim observed them. There was the girl who had played the music from earlier, as well as some other new faces. A man who seemed very interested with his surroundings, a girl who had a backpack, a man and a woman with red hair. Nim followed along after the group, remaining hidden. She decided to greet the first who wondered off alone. Meeting them all at once would to much hassle.
