[Maybe we should each do our first comments, so catowl has something to build on when she comes?] Fran, with Jo and Alice following, walked out of the tavern, motioning for Baudet and the demon to follow. "Thanks for letting us in door" she told the door. It just mumbled something incoherent. She walked out into a place that was much different from the place she came from. It was green, a sort of woodland.

((The Lieutenant is still waiting on Baudet's handshake in the tavern... we'll follow you soon?))

((Bleh, sorry for the wait. I fell asleep super-early yesterday...))

Baudet stepped out of the tavern, swinging his cap back onto his head.

((No problemo.))

The Lieutenant strode over the tavern threshold, glancing at the surroundings with mild interest. Her pipe went out in the cool forest air, but she'd get around to re-lighting it later, when she could take the time to enjoy it properly. As it was, she took it out of her mouth and sighed.

Baudet snickered slightly when the Lieutenant's pipe went out. His tail kicked up a small cloud of dirt around his feet.

The Lieutenant glowered at Baudet, but didn't even try to kill him. She had shaken on it.

Fran looked around. Other than the small wooden building that must have been the tavern, there were no signs of civilization. "Great. I'm lost." She muttered. "Alice, Jo, can you get a bird's eye view?" _______________ Alice and Jo nodded and flew through the canopy. What they saw was a seemingly endless forest, except in one direction. Jo dived back through the canopy to tell this to the group.

"So," Baudet said, tapping his chin. "Trees, trees, everywhere...'cept fer that way?" He pointed in the direction that Jo had indicated.

"Basically" Jo responded glumly.

Alice screeched excitedly overhead.

Baudet glanced up in surprise. "What's she goin' on about?"

Fran glanced into the sky. "oh, she just likes forests. I think she is a forest gryphon. As opposed to a seaside or mountain gryphon." she smiled sadly. "I hope we can get her home"

"I hope she stops screeching," Hathingsworth muttered. "So, do we know where this wizard is?"

"er. No..." Fran said hesitantly. "no idea"

Baudet frowned. "Well, that's not good," he said.

"He doesn't stay in one place, so there is no knowing where he might be." Fran informed them, "Also, I have no idea where we are." she sighed.

The donkey-eared poltergeist pursed his lips. "That's not good, either."

Fran grimaced. "Well at least we could go to the clearing Jo pointed out." she suggested. ------ "Ya think?" Jo said agitatedly. "you Half-humans spend to much time talking and not enough time actually doing things!" ------ Alice did a triple backflip, roaring like a young lion.

"Will you shut up?" the Lieutenant snapped at the griffin. She turned back to the others. "You wouldn't happen to have anything that belongs to him, would you?"

Fran gazed into the sky and called Alice down, asking her to be quieter. Alice obeyed grudgingy, then returned to te skies. "That should keep her quiet for a few hours." Fran told the Demon, Fran still didn't know her name. "Well, everything we have once belonged to him, but Jo's dagger was his prized possession." Jo hesitantly removed the dagger from its pocket in his fez, handing it to Fran. The dagger was three inches long, and half an inch wide. The pommel had a small black stone on the end of it.

The Lieutenant raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected success on either of her questions. Maybe she could work with these people. She took the dagger. "I'm the Lieutenant, by the way," she said as she turned the blade over in her hands, not bothering with her last name. "I don't think I introduced myself properly." She pricked her finger on the blade's point, and drops of onyx blood welled up. She smeared the blood onto the flat of the blade, and it beaded off the metal, rolling into new shapes. She looked intently at it for a little while, as it continued to shift. "North," she announced finally. She wiped the blade off on the top of the donkeyman's hat and handed it back to the monkey.

((Just picked a vague direction at random for him to be in, hope that's okay.))

[That's ok] Fran followed the Lieutenant north. "How do you do that?"

The Lieutenant shrugged. "Old Army trick."

Fran nodded. ____________ Jo returned the dagger to his Fez, putting the hat back on his head. [Fez!!! :D] ____________ Alice turned to follow the group.

Baudet promptly cussed and whipped his hat off his head, glaring at the new smear on his cap. He stalked after them, muttering swearwords under his breath.

Jo snorted at Baudets actions. He was funny.
