"Can you be more specific? What is your occupation? Do you know of anyone else like you?" Almyra was going to continue asking questions when the hunters told them to meet outside. She wanted to know, but decided that ensuring she could stay at the inn was of more importance. She followed the two hunters outside. When they asked her abilities, she predicted that they would not be interested in her studies, more in her combat abilities. "I am a master of chaos magic, allowing me to create magical chains to pull my opponents, hammers to crush them, bolts to pierce them, blades to cut them, and claws to slash them. I have limited experience in hunting." Whenever the hunters weren't addressing her, she would be staring at Adelheid, continuing to study her.
Adelheid was about to answer when she Heard the hunters and decided to follow the group from behind. She suddenly entered Almyra’s blind spots and approximated to her from behind her. Not revealing her presence until she attacked her ruthlessly from behind, stabbing her with five different swords and two giant screws. Only to delete the consequences of the actions she had just perpetrated and hug her from behind. “[That’s what I do and I don’t know if there are others with a “minus”.]” “[Illusion or reality I will let you decide that by your own]” She said while pointing at the guns now nailed on the ground. “[Hum yes I’m not really good for anything but to play the bait.] [So I want to go with the predator scaring party!]” She said on a loud voice while still hugging Almyra.
Readjusting his satchel, Riniac followed the group outside. When they asked to see a demonstration of their abilities he would walk off to the side, leaning against a tree. He'd let them discuss with Almyra and Adelheid first, then show them what he could do. If they asked.

Almyra watched as her wounds and the damage to her clothing was undone. That would probably at least partly explain what she saw in and around Adelheid. "Fascinating. Did you learn this, or were you born with this ability? Have you always been a 'minus?'" She didn't really understand why Adelheid was hugging her, but didn't particularly care. Hearing where Adelheid said she was going, she decided she wanted to be with this strange woman. "I would prefer to be in the party to scare off predators as well."

The two hunters exchanged whsipered words with each other, as they observed their fellows.
“Yes, useful... useful indeed...”
“Well, you all seem to have very acceptable abilities; I don’t think we’ll worry about bringing down a wild Elk.” The shorter pipe smoker said.
They looked at Riniac as he stayed quiet and leaned against the tree. They raised brow and leaned weight upon a leg, making a rather sarcastic comment.
“I suppose you are also some sort of powerful magician, capable of... terrible feats of destruction. Well, let’s just decide when we’re down there.”
"Well, if you have no other business to attend to, let us be off then and check if the merchant was making an incredibly wild guess. Tally ho!” The two men shoulder their big game shotguns, letting the large hunting dogs take the lead.
The steep cliff had a gently sloping, winding trail that led down to a frozen river, and the wilderness of the Ironspike Mountains could be surveyed on the way down. All around were white capped peaks that seemed to glow in the encroaching night, the wind howling in a low, constant tone. The gold and crimson sky of dusk slowly gave way to the black of night.
In the far distance, beasts howled to Runeterra’s twin moons, great rusty celestial spheres suspended in the darkening sky- dotted with the glitter of constellations and stars. It would be a few minutes before arriving at the bottom, and thus far the hunt proved rather uneventful, save for the peaceful, breathtaking view.
“[Ha ha ha You are funny][Maybe? A “minus” is not something you “learn”][Unconscious unrelated unworthy and on top of that irresponsible that’s the face of a minus.][Maybe my mind became so twisted that I learned how to twist the world or maybe I was born with it and learned how to use it?][Maybe is just a delusion?]” Then she separated herself from Almyra and started walking on the direction in which the wild beasts supposedly were. “[Others like me? Maybe] [Maybe not in this chaotic world with so many possibilities who can say they aren’t others? Not that I have meet them.]”

"If that's how you describe a summoner, then yes, I am."
Without another word Riniac would tail behind the two hunters, one arm on the strap of his satchel and the other merely swinging by his side. His hood fell back as he walked, allowing him to clearly hear all the noises of the creatures about them. His gold eyes seems to boredly look head, his robe slowly turning back to it's normal navy blue and gold-trimmed colors.

Almyra stood for a few moments, considering what Adelheid said. Then spoke to the hunters. "I am ready, I will help scare off predators." She followed Adelheid, remaining silent. This one was indeed interesting. Perhaps she would consider learning of the strings, it would be interesting for her to be able to see herself as Almyra saw her. She hoped she could continue to learn more about this woman. Especially by further observing the environment's reaction to her.
As always, the two hunters and their dogs stayed ahead of the group as they descended the path. They kept chatting with each other, looking at the group, eyeing up their mage companions... then shared a chuckle then resumed chatting. They seemed rather ineffectual towards their conversation.
Once the bottom of the path was reached, they once again discussed their plan. They seemed fairly comfortable in the weather, considering that as night fell, it was becoming very cold.
They scouted ahead, and looked at the group. "Well, what do you know. The merchant girl was right... quite a mind on her indeed."
"Well, I'll go circle about with the hounds and draw the elk to you mages. You seem to have quite the firepower, after all..." The shorter, pipe smoking one said, putting his pipe away as the hunt was about to begin.
"And we shall go and investigate the flanks with our fine warrior friends, to ensure we do not encounter the predator on the way back. Ready? Let's be off then."
The night was coming and the sound of many wild beasts inundated the darkness, but only those used to feel the noises of beasts looking to devour you every night that even in the middle of asphalt jungles would notice the subtle noises of those beasts lurking inside and outside human beings. But Adelheid walked towards the path that Elenwe had pointed and walking to face off the frost sabertooth just walked without any doubt towards the predator even if she was going to be killed tonight. Maybe the idea of her own oblivion exited her or maybe was the idea to bring down a pinnacle of the food chain, maybe it was just that she had a feeling that she was going to find more than one beast? Anyway she had always been like that even before losing herself always walking the path of chaos without any doubt on her mind always accepting the cruel things that destiny had for her. She walked who knows how much on the dark cold woods close the rivers course until she saw a shadow moving between the threes. Or maybe it was multiple shadows at that distance she couldn’t tell but it was clear that she had found something. It was at that time when her eyes were actually alive even if for a moment “[let’s see what destiny has for us shall we?]” she said to the presence she had been faaling all this time following her.

Almyra followed Adelheid, remaining silent, observing her. As they approached the predator, she readied herself to kill it if it struck. A small ethereal green crossbow formed in her right hand, the string drawn back and bolt loaded, and her left began to glow a soft green. She would not let any harm come to Adelheid. She could not. Anything similar to Adelheid needed to be protected. Suddenly Adelheid spoke, Almyra was somewhat surprised, considering the situation. She decided it would be best to remain silent for now, though, and explain the falsity of the belief in destiny later. She stood back, waiting to protect herself or Adelheid.
As the rest of the group dispersed to their respective positions, Riniac allowed himself a small smirk. Perfect timing. Tossing his satchel up onto the branch of the tree the summoner would find the widest clearing he could, before unfolding his robes. His wings seemed to roll outwards, spanning several feet in length. Giving a powerful and completely silent flap he took off into the sky, attempting to spot the elk or it's predators from above. If he didn't find either first, he'd help subdue them at the very least.
The Hunter seemed to be quite familiar with the terrain, seeing how they managed to so quickly circle around the Elk. A gunshot rang out, and then the hounds charged, scaring the Elk towards the direction of the group in general, where Riniac would have been. Flight was a most prudent action, as these were Dire Elk; massively larger and more powerful than an animal of the normal variety. The Elk were forced to stop because of the large trees impeding their mighty horns- but such massive beasts were likely going to take a large amount of punishment to bring down.
Meanwhile, the shadowy outline of the predator, a large cat, eyed the new arrivals. It slowly slinked away back into the shadows, out of sight for those who were unaccustomed to the night.
“Careful now... I’m right behind you, lass. If the thing shows his face, I’m right here.” The hunter said, holding his rifle calmly.
The predator had already been discourage from pursuing the Elk, and the prey was now audible back at the staging area, trapped by their own horns. It was now a simple course of action to simply return, but for those that would pursue the big cat though, they would soon see a large humanoid shape...
Adelheid keep walking after the cat while she out of nowhere summoned an Ex-revolver with 6 bullets ready. She observed the cat go away and wondered why it would retreat so suddenly but that though soon leave her. Not before long she would observe an humungous humanoid shaped shadow approximating the party. But she didn’t get discouraged she was exited “This is how things are always for me always unexpected misfortune” then she smiled widely and this is why is so fun.
Almyra continued to follow Adelheid, she kept a lookout for the cat, then noticed the humanoid form shortly after Adelheid did. She remained silent still, the crossbow still present in one hand and energy still coursing through the other. She looked at Adelheid, trying to discern if she was truly having any effect on the events that were transpiring.
