[RHINESTONE.]

RHINESTONESTAR ❝ RHINE ❞ LEGATE
"TALKING" || "TELEPATHY"

The universe was sort of a right, in a way. The Palm Glades really should've been used to intruders and party crashers, particularly loud and large ones. After all, it seemed as though at least a quarter of their userbase these days was made up of dinosaurs. However, that didn't mean that they took kindly to violent intruders on their shores. Rhinestone had always made it clear that they intended to protect themselves, above all else. The legate had always tried to make sure that Palm Glades kept to a careful balance. They were by no means outwardly violent, and they usually didn't go looking for a fight. They didn't enjoy wasting resources on battles that wouldn't earn them anything in return, and that was why two of their recent raids had been for allies, and as a result of deals. This didn't mean, though, that they were weak. They had a large member base, and they weren't afraid to rain chaos and death down on the heads of those that chose to hurt anyone that made up that member base. And while the particular person that had been being hunted by Dante and screaming was unfamiliar to Rhinestone, he didn't particularly like anyone being attacked on his territory. It would only bring more trouble, and he certainly didn't approve of wanton murder, either.

Despite this, Rhine did find himself wishing, vaguely, that Vaas had handled the situation in a bit more cautious of a way. He didn't want the tiger getting himself hurt, and while he hardly underestimated Vaas's strength, this particular intruder seemed... especially vicious. Unable to keep the wary look off of his face as he made his way over, the serval's dark eyes darted from the white feline, to Dante, and finally to Vaas. He eventually decided to settle beside his Medicus, feeling safer with the other's presence nearby. Lifting his chin a bit defiantly, Rhinestone made sure to make himself look dignified before he spoke, eyes narrowed, "You. Who are you, and why are you hunting this poor feline on the territory of the Palm Glades? We don't like unannounced intruders, and we also don't condone killing on our lands, either." Despite the fact that he wished Vaas had handled the situation a little more tactfully, Rhine was unable to keep a sense of anger from his own voice as well. The scent of the Coalition clung onto Dante's pelt, and Rhinestonestar thought that most agreements between allies were pretty simple. They involved not causing trouble on the lands of your allies, which was something that this bear dog didn't seem to understand, or seemingly didn't care about.
