The elderly lady tapped her chin softly, her blind eyes staring blankly ahead, "Alright, you twisted my arm." The woman's smile twisted upwardly sharply before she began struggling to her feet, her knees shaking underneath her. Tisk really was unsure as to where to ask Caspian to lead them, as they really had nowhere to go. Deciding to take the focus off themselves for a moment or two to buy themselves more time Tisk offered Caspain a question. "What brings a man like you out here?"

Selene laughed and said," oh calm down baby brother I would have made sure you were fine." She then smiled and asked," so how is my brother doing this fine evening?" Lulu looked at the scorched earth and said," it was but it was supposed to go there." She then crossed her arms and said," looks like I will have to work on my aiming as well." Tyler takes a moment to down from Ale before speaking again. "I was enjoying some sweets and enjoying being rich." He said leaning against the table. Mason nodded his head.

"I have a group out here." Caspian said crossing his arms over his chest. He didn't want to give to much anyway. Then again, he doubted this old lady could do much anyway. Besides, his group was hidden by magic. "We do all sorts of things." He said keeping it vague.

"How cryptic..." The elderly woman studied Caspian carefully once more before Tisk quickly remembered that the woman was in fact supposed to be blind, quickly dropping their gaze and hoping Caspian didn't notice. Finally getting to her feet, the old woman began shuffling forwards blindly, in no particular direction. "What does your group do, other than help lowly people like myself?"

Selene looked at him and said," you know you might want to lighten up on the sweets." She then smirked while saying," no girl will find you attractive if all you do is stuff your face with sweets."
Lulu then turned to him and said," okay I only have one more spell Mason." She then walked over to him and said," However, for me to do this I need you to step back about five feet."

"Well, not all of them are as nice as me." Caspian replied rubbing the back of his neck. Heck, all of them were pretty nasty except for the cyclops. She was different to say the least. "We are a simple band of ruffians with no rules except to obey our leader. We hunt, fighting and kill any who stand in our way."
Tyler blinked at her in shock. "How dare you! Ladies can't resist this face! In fact, I have many lovers!" This wasn't true and he had many a few dedicated women that adored him.
Mason follows her advice and takes several steps back. "Lulu, what are you going to do?" He questioned. '

Tisk raised their eyebrows, this seemed like a place they might be able to fit in. Albeit they were shocked that he so openly explained what his group did, she was not altogether surprised. "That's quite a lot, ever need an old lady like me on your team?" Yet another laugh croaked out, but Tisk was genuinely curious if this was a group that they could join. The desire to belong was driving them to make quick decisions.

Lulu smiled and said," oh you will see soon enough." She then pointed her staff towards his feet and made a green circle appear under him. From the circle large vines covered in thorns shot up and formed a cage around him.
Selene smiled with a chesshire cat like grin and said," oh and where are these woman at little brother?"

(Perhaps, they meet a noble/convoy from Firewell who tries to intimidate them or give them a warning about something.)

Mason watched in amazement as the vines trapped him in a cage. "All I see." He said hoping the vines didn't try to attack or worse kill him. "Simple, at thier homes daydreaming about me." Tyler said in a matter of fact tone.

Caspian laughed at her request. "I don't know. The others might not like it. Besides do you know how to fight?" He questioned wondering why this old woman wanted to join his group. He doubted she would last very long. Although, they could always use a healer.

Selene smirked and said," I will have to take your word for it." She then sat up and asked," anyways I came to ask you if you wanted to help out your favorite older sister."
Lulu smiled happily and said," I am so happy, I was honestly a bit scared that I would have to tell daddy I accidentally stabbed a guard." The then deactivated the spell so the vines went back into the circle as it disappeared.

He doubted she would last very long. Although, they could always use a healer. Tisk grinned, ' If only you knew.' The grizzled woman chuckled before breaking out into a short coughing fit. "It would do you well in your craft to not judge a person so quickly by their cover. As I'm sure you know well, people are not always who they seem to be."

"Depends on what it is." Tyler said giving her a look. He wasn't sure what she had in mind.
Mason relaxed as the vines went away. "Very good Lulu. See you are getting better!"
Caspian considered her words for a moment before speaking. "You aren't some spy are you?" He asked leaning in a little. He wondered just what the woman's intentions were. "My group is finally gaining ground and I don't want us to suddenly be attacked by knights!"

"I've had my eye on you Caspian for a while, but I'm not spying, merely curious." The elderly woman's voice had changed now and was an exact replica of Caspian's. The woman's face began to contort, the features shifting, skin tightening and the hair seeming to be sucked into her scalp, the grey colour beginning to match that of Caspian's until a perfect replica of him. Rising to their feet, Tisk smirked slightly at Caspian, copying the one they had seen not too long before. "Tah dah."

Caspian stared at the old woman changed into him. "This is a surprise but it makes sense." He leaned in admiring his doppelganger. "Mmm I knew I looked good but this just affirms it."

Tisk was quite please by Caspian's response, and honestly quite surprised it was not more hostile. "I guess you could say I'm 'gifted' with a select set of skills that often proves beneficial in aiding with some unsatisfying deeds."Tisk folded their arms and arched their eyebrow at Caspian awaiting his next move.

"I like the sound of that." Caspian said smiling some more. "Follow me and I'll show you to my camp. Although, I would change into someone else. Wouldn't want my group to get confused." He laughed before rolling his shoulders back. "Might as well be honest with ya since you doesn't seem like the type to tattle. My group is known as the Crystal Vipers and we are bandits to put it lightly."

Lulu smiled and said," yeah I bet both Mom and daddy will be so impressed." She then started to imagine both her parents give her all sorts of praise.
Selene put up one of her fingers and said," oh dear brother when do I ever fill you in on my plans." She then stood up and said," besides it is not like it is anything dangerous."

He laughed before rolling his shoulders back. "Might as well be honest with ya since you doesn't seem like the type to tattle. My group is known as the Crystal Vipers and we are bandits to put it lightly." Tisk couldn't believe it was so easy to enter this group, but they were not about to bring that up, they were honestly quite happy that they finally were fitting in somewhere. Caspian's facial features began to shift, looking like putty being moulded by invisible hands, the more masculine features becoming more delicate, the hair growing until a young woman stood in his place. She looked to be in her early 20's with long auburn hair and slightly pointed elven ears. The woman began to follow Caspian, tilting her head slightly as she listened to his explanation, "The Crystal Vipers eh? What if you were to put it darkly?"

Luna and Jay were told that a group of Firewell noble were here to greet them. Luna didn't like the sound of this and tightens her grip on Jay's hand. "What do you think they want this time?" She wondered if they would be threathened or asked to wed one of their children off.
Mason smiled before walking back at her. "Anything else grand wizard." He teased.
Tyler sighed as he finished his dessert and rises to his feet. "All right then. What do I need to do?" He asked deciding to just roll with whatever his sister had in store.
Caspian makes a face as his image melts and transform into someone else. He would have that image burned into the back of his head. "What do you mean?" He asked confused by what she was trying to say.

Selene smiled and said," see now isn't that some much easier than trying to fight me." She then turned around and said," first we need to head to the market."
Lulu puffed out her cheeks and said," hey don't tease me." She then turned around and said," I really want to go tell mom and daddy about my accomplishment."

He asked confused by what she was trying to say. "You had said 'to put it nicely.' Be honest with me, what am I really walking into? As you know, in this line of work it does not do well to merely jump into something headfirst without knowing what you are jumping into." Tisk watched Caspian as the moved, noticing his discomfort at their shifting form and taking some sort of twisted pleasure from his discomfort.
