Freya found a rather old couch sitting near the desk, and took it upon herself to rest there for a bit and get all of the items that she bought neatly organized in her sack-o'-stuff. When she was done with that, she stood up and made her way over to the entrance as if to show off her impatience. A little ways away from Talla, she stood there in silence for a moment before speaking once more. "I'm Freya, by the way," she said without looking at the girl, "and I hope we can set out soon; it'll be dark before we know it." She folded her arms and quietly watched the two men buy their goods.

Talla watched Freya make her way towards the entrance. She rocked back and forth on her feet, feeling anxious. She felt awkward, and looked over at Freya.
"Names Talla." She replied, and forced out, "yes, we are being slow," and shrugged. Talla closed her eyes, and tried to relax, listening to the sounds of people and her own breathing.

Dan walked around the interior of the hospital, taking in small and meaningless details of the building's design. Once everyone had bought their supplies, he attempted to approach the group and inform them that: "Okay, we're ready to get moving." He paused before heading to the door. "Anything else we need?" he asked the group.

Talla pushed off of the wall with a foot and picked her pack, that was between her feet, in one fluent movement. Then swung the pack carefully over her shoulder. The slight glint of metal shown from her axe, and Talla shrugged, so the cloak hid it again. She looked anxious, walked through the door, passing Dan, and looked back at everyone.
" 'bout time. Let's go," She tried on a small smile at everyone, and waited.

"Alright then," Freya announced suddenly as she quickly straightened herself out and brushed past the group. She turned her head to the side at Dan. "You, with the map. Where are we headed first?" Without waiting for an answer, she opened the door and left the hospital. She didn't go too far; in fact, she was stilll holding the door open from the outside, looking in at the group. She furitively glanced at the receptionist and other personnel walking around the building while she waited.

Dan casually dug into his pocket and felt around for the map. After a few seconds, he drew it out and unfolded it. He studied it closely, searching for the correct way to explain the directions. "Looks like," he said, with his eyes still on the map, "We should travel south-west until we get to Williamsport, which will take about three days. The rest of the trip will continue south-west and it looks like it'll take about another week and a half." While folding and putting away the map, Dan looked at the group to make sure they were all understanding. "Any questions?"

Talla looked up at the sky for a moment, almost as if looking for something.
"Three monthes since the last letter.." Talla said under her breath, so only she could hear.
Looking over at Dan, she shook her head to his question. She kicked at a small rock, and looked around at the group. The closer they got to leaving, the more anxious she became. She stepped behind the others, feeling awkward being out so much in the open, and wondered how far Williamsport was from her own town. Sadly enough, she was homesick, and wondered how her parents faired.

An eagle with a letter gently carried in it's mouth swoops down to Tallas feet, the eagle looks up with an almost worried expression at Talla as it drops the letter at her feet, turns and slowly makes his way back into the sky heading from which he once came. The letter with a small streak of what seems to be blood on the front. The side to be open, barly sealed at all.

Talla smile widely as she saw the familiar eagle fly down. She looked at the bird as it did her, and her eyes darkened. Noticing the blood, she dropped to her knees and picked up the letter, opening it quickly, pratically ripping it in her haste. Talla's eyes read the letter twice, her hands shaking. Her hair hid her face. Suddenly weak, she stood on shakey feet. She looked at the other, the same blank expression on her face. With a deep breath and shakey voice, Talla folded the letter and stuck it in her pocket.
"Are we leaving? Or just dawdling?"

Ronin watches the eagle come and go almost till the eagle is out of site and thinks to himself how neat it would be to have an eagle as a pet . Ronin heads out of town and south west as soon as Talla mentions it

"It sounds like a solid plan," Freya said once Dan finished talking. "If there is nothing left for us to do here, we should be on our way." Freya noticed the big eagle in the sky that approached Talla. Following the young girl's reaction to the letter sent, concern flashed over Freya's face for but a second. Anyone who caught it could have sworn they were seeing things. She thought to say something, but chose not to and followed Ronin instead.
OOC: Heh...was trying to do this during class. That's always fun.

"Okay then," Dan said, double-checking that Ronin was going to correct direction before following him. He tried to not think about why the eagle delivered that letter and why it made Talla so anxious. He reassured himself that if it was something he should worry about, someone would have told him what was going on.
Dan quickly shook his head to clear his mind. He followed Ronin, hoping someone else would take their turn at starting conversation.
