Hikari blinked and thought for a moment, whilst Mouka tapped his foot impatiently. He didn't like or trust Alaric, but he was there for Hikari, not himself.
After a few moments, she nodded. "Yes, could you please help us look? I can tell you what we'd be searching for... but not much after that..."

Amelia watched the small group from the water. Her hair was pulled to the surface due to the lily pads in her hair and her eyes seem to float just above the water. At a glance, she seemed just like another piece of the scenery. Amelia wasn’t completely sure why she was pulled to watch. Maybe it was just the fact that she sensed that there were some trespassers on her land? What ever the reason, she slightly regretted it. Like most travelers these days, they had the small sent of metal to them. Weither was from a weapon, armor, or supplies; she didn’t care. All she new that it made her feel less than perfect.
Her brows furrowed once she heard that they were going to search her lovely swamp for someone that they couldn’t describe. That didn’t sit too well with her. She was torn between confronting them, or to keep watching. The boy with the cow ears tweaked her Naiad habit, but the two humans held her back. Sure, she probably would be able to handle a female human, but it was the male that made her feel uncomfortable. After a few moment of deep contemplation, she gave a small sigh. Bubbles rose in the water due to the action.
Amelia dove under the water only to reappear near a shore near them. “Excuse me.” She chimed her voice sounding soft and sweet. “I couldn’t help but overhear…You are looking for someone, correct? Well, perhaps I might know if he passed this way.” She gave a smile that made her seem pleasant. Her smile slightly faded, however, when her eyes fell upon the man leaning on the ruin.

Alaric started to speak, but was interrupted by the newcomer.
So she doesn't like me already, hm...? Ah, well... I never really was popular with their type...
"What's this? A lady of the marsh offering to help folk like us? Why, I was under the impression that Naiads couldn't stand humans. Or is it that way, and this merely some ploy to lure us to our deaths...?" Alaric said to the new one as he stepped from the wall, going into the light.
His facial features now showed more clearly, and his hair turned a light color. He looked at the naiad with a look of distrust, though not much. His eyes never did show too much emotion.
".. Why this sudden... change of heart?"

Hikari blinked at the newcomer and waved a friendly, but shocked 'hello'. Mouka raised an eyebrow and noticed her smile fade. He turned to Alaric and growled.
"Mouka!" Hikari said, narrowing her eyes. "Be nice, already! Sheesh." She walked over to Amelia and smiled. "We're sorry. You seem to be from around here, correct? Forgive us, but yes you are right. We are searching for someone. It's a bit difficult to explian what he looks like because I'm sure his appearance has changed, but he does travel with a little pink cat with pretty wings."
((Oh, uh... If you guys wanna know if you've seen him, you need to ask Blackangelyume, since it is her character I'm looking for))

((I'm for sure I haven't, just made my guy... She hasn't either, she's newer than me.))
"Fine then..."
Alaric turned and looked at the sky, away from everyone else. He would let their group talk. He didn't really care. He drifted off, somewhat daydreaming. They would let him know if they needed him.

Mouka watched Alaric, and sighed. Perhaps he'd been to hard on him? "Hey," he said, walking up beside him. "What are you doing?"

Amelia was slightly surprised when Mouka growled to Alaric on her behalf. She passed him a thankful nod before looking the male human straight in the eye with her black eyes. “You seem to know much about us...Perhaps too much for your own good.” She stated, her sweet smile still remaining, but a mixture disgust and distrust dripped from every word. “My reasons are for me alone. Rest assured, drowning you would just be a waste of my time.” When Amelia spoke of drowning her cold eyes were locked on Alaric. She wouldn’t dream of drowning a woman or a fellow mythical creature.
Slowly she pulled her eyes away from Alaric back to the female. “I am sorry; I have not noticed anyone who looks like that. But, that doesn’t mean that he is not here.” She stated, pausing to look at the water behind her. “It could mean that he just isn’t wearing any metal…Or he is being very respectful of my swamp.” This time, her eyes met Hikari’s. The coldness they filled them were gone, a look of hope and sympathy taking it’s place.

Alaric just looked at Mouka with a questioning glance. This was new.
"Waiting for you all to finish. Daydreaming. Those good enough answers for you?" he responded fairly quietly. He wanted to start the search as soon as possible, was all. Nothing against the group.
He waited for Mouka to respond, figuring out his next courses of action while doing so.

Hikari smiled, sadly. "Oh, thank you..." She sighed. "Oh, but perhaps you've felt his presence? He's not human, but his aura is very much different from my friends." She was as hopeful as Amelia, if not more.
Mouka growled, loudly. "You're very disrespectful to others, aren't you? The universe doesn't revolve around you, you know?"

Kain observed the surroundings, Emerald eyes taking in every detail. It was not often that he could just look at nature.
It's a nice day...
His eyes locked onto a group of three standing on the road up ahead, they were talking about something...he looked a more carefully and noticed a figure in the water...a Naiad by the looks of it.
Hmmm...I was hoping to have a walk today without interruption
Kain continued walking, a slight breeze rippling his rather loose clothing. His left hand hung near the hilt of his sword, casually but ready to draw should he be threatened.
