UP TO THE TEST // joiner

  [font=trebuchet ms]In the few moments before Winterwish spoke again, Rin took in the kitsune's appearance. She had seen several winged mammals in the past, one of them being the Typhoon captain with which she was plotting to neutralize the Pitt. The snowflake and petal markings were curious, but perfectly-shaped markings were also not an impossibility in this odd, irradiated world.

  Then Winterwish was up and already walking past, without waiting for Rin to take the lead. She still wanted to be shown to camp, though. Not a problem. "It's that way," Rin answered, stepping forward and jerking her head in the direction of the main cave. There was also the sea town, of course, but she suspected Winterwish's interest in that would be limited at the moment, given that she had just gotten here.

  Padding in that direction, she briefly glanced back to keep an eye on the newcomer. How much would Winterwish already know about Elysium? Rin had a limited idea of how word spread outside of the main groups, but Winterwish had expressed an intent to join as soon as she got here, so likely she had some knowledge of what kind of group she was joining. "How much have you heard about Elysium before this, out of curiosity?" she asked, twitching her ears.
