Finally had come the time for all the kiddies to go play in the big kids section of the forest. Yippy! Oh how exciting this was going to be!

Not.

At least one of them was going to wind up dead. Kai didn't exclude herself from that bunch, especially since she was among that bunch that sided with neither group. Apart from three, she didn't even know any of their names. At least, not enough to match their faces with the names she'd heard. Whatever. Either she would learn them very soon or want to forget them entirely.

Smiling Mountain had sent them bumbling into the true harsh conditions of the wilderness out here and while it was relatively quiet now, Kai knew it wouldn't last. So with her hood drawn over her head and keeping her face concealed, she began the hundred mile pilgrimage to...more. If what stoic giant had promised was true to form for them to complete, they could possibly be out here for days. Kai knew herself well enough to know how to survive in mild conditions, but this was certainly one instance in which she'd regretted missing that three-day island exercise. Not only would it have been perfect practice for her personally, but it would have given her a glimpse at seeing how all these other meatbags functioned.

Then again, it didn't really matter now, did it? From what she had heard, the dynamic had been altered because of some fight. Typical.

For now though, Kai was swift and silent while tailing near the back of the group, taking flank at the left. The black leather whip was coiled at her hip near her left hand while hanging from her right was her trusty giant fork. It may not have been a match for whatever adversities she and they would face, but it was a start. Ears open, Kai tuned into the sloshings of the water, trying to pinpoint from which directions they were coming as the ensemble moved forward.
