(OOC: this takes place Directly in time with "A Paladin's Quest begins so First post to Dante please)
It was a nice night for a walk. Bloodwing only wished he had his wing so he could get o his cave faster. The faster he got there the sooner he could get out of this weak human form. The Night was oddly humid for how high he was in the mountains. Still it wasn't bad.
As he neared his cave he saw a fire in the distance. It seemed that someone had found a place to sleep on his front porch. He decided not to get close, he only saw one traveler there anyway. he couldn't smell them from here so hi just didn't care. He didn't even care enough to notice that though there was one person their that the camp site had a second set of things. evidence that someone else was or had been there.

Dante was paying little attention to the thundering sounds over head. She was on watch for intruders int the camp. She let the shaggy mane of bright orange hair blow in her face in the storming breeze. The wind carried sounds and smells; Sulfur and the sound of walking. Dante's golden eyes quickly looked up towards where she had heard the snapping of twigs come from. A normal human that hadn't been trained like her would have let the sounds go unnoticed. She looked to the ground across from her across the fire.
The sleeping dragonborn, Horu, was sound asleep. She gave a small huff and tossed off the kimono she had let rest around her shoulders. Her golden bralike top was now the only top she had on and her hakama were also starting to blow in the breeze. "Hope you don't mind if I leave for a few moments to check this out my friend," she said. She picked up the bronze and red staff that had been lying behind her and quickly stepped out of the cave they were in. She immediately began to move towards the sounds and smell, a little nervous because she was unsure of what she would find.

Bloodwing Stopped and listened to the sounds of the night and took in the scents that surrounded hi. Of the granite the Pines below and the human that was getting far to close to be ignored. "You are in my territory I suggest you show yourself, and state your business here before I have to drag you from the shadows and tear you limb from limb." His voice was threatening and dead serious. He was not playing around when people where so close to his horde. He was still in humanoid form but he was far from defenseless.

Dante landed without a sound in front of the male. Her bright orange hair growing more vibrant as the lightening struck nearby and the rain began to pour heavily out of the dark sky. "I and my companion are only seeking refuge from the storm for the night, if we have intruded we are sorry but I do ask that you do not make us move," Dante said in a loud tone to be heard over the pounding rain. Her skin was quickly beginning to drip with the rain water from the sky.
Dante began to twirl her staff over her head quickly, the speed beginning to deflect the rain from her body as she awaited a reply from the male in front of her.

Blood wing was steaming hawt. No really every drop of rain that touched him turned to steam as he heated his body up. And it gave him a very surreal foreboding look; as if he was some phantom. "So it's a woman that haunts my mountain home?" He said in a snide way. "You know The cave I live in is far warmer. If your friend doesn't mind I would happily show you... to my bed chamber and allow you and your friend a free pass."It was obvious that this man was so full of himself he was ready to pop. And it was also obvious he had no fear of the woman at all even if she was effectively using her staff as an umbrella.

"You could use a lesson or two on being subtle," she said, arching her brow in slight disgust. The applewood shaft, although beginning to become slippery in her grasp, Dante still managed to keep a good grip on the wooden item. Her gold eyes flashed in the lightning in a way that was unseen when it came to humans. She could sense trouble just beginning to brew, she had the strong feeling she should leave the Dragonborn out of it. Maybe it was a bit too late though, in their short time spent together, Horu's scent had rubbed off a little onto her. It was a little irritating honestly but it was a smell that she knew she would have to get used to.
The rain did little to wash away or cover up the scent. She could feel the energy coming from this man. She could tell he was nothing as what he appeared to be. The steam rising around him didn't help matters much either. She lowered her staff and let it come to a complete halt in her hand. Once again she was quickly soaked in the downpour.

I can be subtle when i want to be. I just don't want to be." He said The down pour may not have washe the scent away but the water did help block it a little. "And you could take my offer. And show a bit of your compassionate side to a lonely wizard of the mountains." He said wondering if his awesome powers of seduction where working.

Dante rolled her eyes. "You've got to be kidding me," she said, her eyes twitching slightly. Her absolute control over her body and mind made her immune to his practices in mind control. Her golden eyes flashed once more in the storm. She liked what he was doing less and less, the fact he was thinking he could bed her so fast was actually an insult.
CRACK Over head, Dante could hear the tree next to her starting to give way in the strengthening wind. She could hear the tree start to fall and her only option was to either dive forwards on her staff and risk slamming into the man or get flattened. As inviting as the second option would be, she couldn't help but feel a small tinge of worry for Horu. Why, was beyond her. She thrust her staff out and put her weight on the strong staff and leapt gracefully from her spot and onto the mud below.
Mud.
She lost her balance as the tip of her staff sunk into the mud. With a few steps back, trying to regain her balance, she slammed into the chest of the man she had been speaking to. This wasn't going to be good and she knew it.

"HAHA your falling for me. How wonderful" her said grabbing her in one arm in a grip no human could randomly get out of with sheer strength alone. "Now, lets get in out of this rain your drnched and i wouldn't want you catching a cold. He said pulling her towards his cave.
As soon as the rain stopped pouring on the two of the the scent hit him and his mood changed instantly. But he didn't show it. "So... what other dragons have you been around girl? AI Smell many and i want to know why." He smelled horu but he also melled the others that had attacked her.

Dante attempted to squirm her way out of his grasp. It was no use. She was hauled away to this being's lair. Soaked as she was, she didn't care. Anywhere was better than being right here at this moment. Her gold eyes turned to the man quickly as he brought up Dragons.
Horu was the first thing that came to mind. She was pleading with herself to not say anything. "My name is not 'girl', nor is my company any business of yours Dragon," she snapped. She could smell it. The over whelming stench of sulfur and rotten flesh.
