Her grip was strong, but not unnaturally. No augments in her arm. "So you're in a group then? Why are you by yourself then?" If she was in a group, then there could be more Zaunites or worse Noxians.
The cave ended at the top of the cliff. It opened up to a hidden valley. The temple was down below, the only man made structure in the valley. The temple was surrounded by a forest, which hid it from view from above. A great river flowed through the valley.
"Here we are."
He remembered the first time he stumbled upon this place. He had been running for a week from the invaders when he found the cave to hid in. He went deeper and deeper into the cave until he was greeted by this sight.
He began to walk down the sloping path to the temple on the ground.
"No I am not with a group my name comes from the villagers in that area." She half lied with that statement, of course she came with someone but the origins of her name are true. Aurus wouldn't be able to tell that she lied. When the cave ended she almost dropped breathless causing her eyes to expand and promptly brighten their unearthly icy glow.
"uh..." she could barely speak her memory seemed to just shut off with the amazing sight. "a... and you live here?"

Aurus slightly chuckled at Wolf's amazement. For being and augmented fighter, she was kinda cute when she was surprised. "Yes, I do live here. For most of my life I have."
They made there way towards the monastery. "Its a some what quiet life. Only people that really come are those that can find the place. Not everyone stays, but most do because they want to train. We can get most of our resources from here, but we occasionally have to go into town for supplies."
As they walked along the valley floor, the temple came into view. It was an older temple, the stones covered in creeping vegetation. It was also fairly large, able to accommodate more people then the ones that live there. He climbed up the stairs to the large double doors, which creaked open. Inside was a large open room, a dojo for training. Many more corridors connected to it, leading deeper into the building.
"Are you still hungry? I can show you where we store our food."
Wolf looked around the large room, it seemed slightly plain but the training dojo was the most worrying. Could this place be able to spawn soldiers capable of combating Noxus and the Order of Shadows, she made a mental image in her mind in case it was of importance.
"I think I would rather sleep now it's gotten a little late." she replied to his question, strange how he was so hospitable to someone he had just met.

"Very well, follow me." He lead her through one of the many corridors, leading there through a snake like through the building. Wolf would notice that while the building was large, there we not very many inhabitants.
"We are pretty small, no more than a hundred of us since our last count. That is how me can live so simply."
He lead her a small room. It was a simple room, with minimal furnishing. It had a small bed and a table, but made of wood. There was only one window, big enough to let a good view of the valley.
"You can stay here tonight. If you need any other help, please let me know now."
Wolf looked over the room, it looked more like a prison cell if it were not for the window. The halls were a maze she would have to plan any escapes necessary with caution, wouldn't be very good to get lost in your enemies house. "I will be fine thank you." she protested as she set her things down at the foot of the bed and unequipped her weapons.
"um... sure" She picked up the sai with the red grip and carried it over to Aurus. The blade was indeed finely crafted in Ionian fasion but it also had the wear and tear like it was passed down for several generations. The question about the sai set of a slight alarm it Wolf's head that indicated that he might be on to her.

He reached for her weapon, his hand brushing against hers as he did.
"Sorry." he quickly apologized.
He held the dagger in his hand, getting a feel or it. It was finely crafted, the material and forging in it superb. It had been nicked and worn from repeated use. So from long ago, some more recent.
So she does use these and not for hunting by the look of them.
He gave the sai a quick test in his hand, testing how it moved and swung. He had trained with sai before. His training had brought him into contact with many kinds of weapons. He didn't realy favour them though. Their range was too short and you only had one real way to attack.
This one felt good in his hand. It had amazing balance, and the steel was still solid, even after years of use. He flipped around until he held the point, the handle back towards its owner, offering it back to her.
"These are finely made, I've never seen a pair like them before. Where did you get them?"
Wolf stood and watched as Aurus took a feeling for the weapon then returned the weapon. "It's a family weapon passed on from generation to generation." she replied as she let tail take it and place it with it's blue counterpart.
"They're dead." she replied bluntly. He had no business butting into her personal life and if he really wanted to know who she was then he could just ask about her nickname. "I would like to be alone now"
"I uh..." She froze, he had caught her off guard and now she had nowhere to run. Maybe she could dive out the window but it would mean leaving her stuff behind and going hungry for the trip back to the camp. She couldn't answer her she was unarmed and vulnerable to someone who she doesn't know all that well.

Aurus face began to change as Wolf refused to answer. Eyes that were warm and kind stared to become cold and angry.
"Don't lie to me Wolf. I know Zaun technology when I see it.
He stopped leaning aganist the wall and took a step towards her, not giving her room to make for the door.
"Why do you have Zaun augments? Why are you so far from your home in the north? Who do you work with?"
Aurus began to question her more aggressively. He felt his rage begin to surface. His rage for Noxus, of the injustice done to his family and friends. He wanted answers. Even though he was getting mad, he would not draw his weapon. He would not start a fight in anger. If this was to come to violence, she would be the one to start it.
