"Where is Oliver?" Sam called over the crowd. "'e's out huntin'," came a reply as the crowd began to disperse silently, returning to their tasks. "Said 'e'll be back soon!"

Jane shrunk back a little bit. She was really beginning to wish that she had stayed with her sister.

John swore again. "Is Peter at least here?" The man tending the fire grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth. "Nope. 'e's out huntin' too," he said amiably. "e're runnin' low on meat 'cause you lot keep bringin' back a bunch o' those pony nobles like 'er. They eat all our food. That one girl still 'asn't stopped wailing, not at all."

Jane sighed. Well, at least she wasn't the only one.

"Thank you, Jeffry." "Eh, no problem, John," came the reply as the man hummed and went back to his work.

ooc: Meh, whatever you feel like bic: Jane watched them interact before frowning. So she was just supposed to stand there and do nothing, being held captive, against her will, while waiting for one of the two leaders of the group?

"Out of my way! Move!" Came the shout of a woman as she moved through the crowd, stopping in front of Sam with an irate expression on her face. "Samuel, what is the meaning of this?" she demanded. "Dragging the poor girl through here!"

Jane glanced at her, sighing with light relief. At least someone was seemingly decent.

"Look, Ellie," Sam started, but the woman cut him off. "No buts about it," the woman said, grabbing Jane's arm. "Now, I know the rules of this place, as Oliver has been very clear on them, but I won't have you terrorizing someone as young as this!" "I wasn't - " "Don't give me that," Ellie interrupted, shaking her finger. "She ain't fully innocence herself, oh no," John snapped.

"I ain't accusin' nothin'," John snapped back. "It's the true." "Truth or not, I'll not have her manhandled by you two anymore," Ellie sniffed.

Jane glared once more at John before turning to Ellie, curtsying to the best of her ability. "Thank-you."

Ellie snorted as they left. "Don't be thankin' me, miss."

Jane blinked, falling silent once more. She was confused and didn't know what to say or do. So she stayed still.

Ellie smiled. "Follow me, then. Oliver will be back soon, as will Peter. We'll see what happens."
