  [font=trebuchet ms]A "sprite," he'd called Clony. From what Rin recalled of that particular branch of mythology, sprites were similar to fairies... she could understand the categorization from a purely physical standpoint, as Clony was a small, winged creature with some magical ability (or at least, enough to speak through telepathy). In terms of personality, though, the "fair folk" were tricksters and made use of loopholes to avoid being fully truthful; Clony, on the other hand, seemed perfectly upfront and honest from what she knew of them. There was more to them than the surface would suggest, that much Rin was willing to bet, but she doubted they were actively engaging in deceit against her or anyone else.

  Turning her attention back to the stranger, Rin twitched her ears. "Hisoka Marrow," he said- did she know a Hisoka? The name sounded vaguely familiar, and he did mention his home formerly settling here... had he been around during the time of the Ascendants? She wasn't sure if she'd put his name on the memorial or not- she made a mental note to go back and check later.

  Regardless, his curiosity didn't strike her as odd, the way it might have at some other point in time. A one-eyed, scarf-wearing, arrow-wielding cat and a telepathic bat-like creature were each strange enough on their own, let alone together. "Yes, you can stay in the territory- but Clony is correct, we shouldn't remain at the border too long," Rin concurred, with a flick of her tail. Still no one else in the bushes... good.

  Nodding, she turned her head back towards the mountain, swiveling her ears in that direction. "The camp's this way, if you'll follow us."
