[Ochita]

Bianca huffed as she walked though, after distancing herself from the others by going down a sidestreet to the plaza. Once she felt like the others were out of earshot, she gave out a small grumble of annoyance.
"So.. They weren't part of some group my family prepared... I guess I looked like a dolt just then. Jeeze..." Shaking her head to herself on how she must've appeared to everyone there, and the words that the... Peculiar Arbalist said. She gave a disapointed and defeated sigh, before making her way into the plaza. She stopped for a moment, before readjusting her crown with a small 'Hmph' as she made her way to the explorer's guild.

Time to get registered as an explorer.

(I'm fine with it, since it's likely what we all would have done and therefore saves a little time.)

Shiloh nudged Cyra's upper arm with his elbow. "Where do you want to go firssst? The guild hall or a ssshop?"

((That was fine. Since we all wanted admittance into the town, having us march inside was the kind of thing I was expecting.))

Dahne smiled a smile that managed to avoid being excessively toothy as he made his way inside, looking around with interest - he was far more used to his people's dwellings after all. He also kept to the shade on the path to the Plaza, trying to avoid most of the sunlight since dark clothes and a beast's fur didn't mix well with heat.

To registration in the Explorer's Guild!

You climb the short steps and push open the wooden double doors.  The place seemed very warm and inviting, like the lounge of a hotel or a common room.  The floor was smoothed stone for the most part, a good thing considering the amount of dirt being tracked.  There were a few couches and chairs positioned around a low table.  There was a nice fireplace off to the side, but thankfully not lit.  The mantle had a few knick knacks on it;  A certificate of service from the Radha to the Guild and a small bust of a former guildmaster.  Your attention is drawn to the large painting on the wall above the mantle.  It depicted five humans posing rather heroically.

[5]You jump a little when you hear a female's voice from behind you. "That was the only guild on record to have reached the end of the labyrinth.  Vestia."  You turn to look at the speaker, and she appears to be a Ronin, considering her sheathed katana, sarashi, and sandles.  She had long black hair tied up with a thin ribbon.  She seems quite pleased to see you, a wide grin on her face."Oh, I'm sorry, let me introduce myself, I'm..."

She stops when one of the others you came here with entered the hall.  It was that Princess apparent, Bianca.  The Ronin addresses her first, "Come in, come in!  It's nice to see new faces.  It's really getting crowded around here, new people every day! And ones lost too..."  She trails off for a moment but snaps back to her beaming self.  "Right, where are my manners?  I'm Reina, I'm the guildmaster here.  It's my job to keep track of all adventurers going into or out of the Yggdrasil Labyrinth.  Once I get you your guild card, you can make orders at the blacksmith or buy warp wires."  She goes over to a desk and pulls out a large notebook.  Looking at the two of you expectantly, she says, "So... where's the rest of your guild?"

You get your hmphs and harumphs out of your system and make your way towards the plaza.  You were a little disappointed that your family hadn't arranged more appropriate accommodations.  You'll just have to see what you can do about that.

Wasting no time, you waltz into the Guild Hall.  You are met by a black haired Ronin woman and that fellow from the Highlands.  She practically jumps at you in excitement.  "Come in, come in!  It's nice to see new faces.  It's really getting crowded around here, new people every day! And ones lost too..."  She trails off for a moment but snaps back to her beaming self.  "Right, where are my manners?  I'm Reina, I'm the guildmaster here.  It's my job to keep track of all adventurers going into or out of the Yggdrasil Labyrinth.  Once I get you your guild card, you can make orders at the blacksmith or buy warp wires."  She goes over to a desk and pulls out a large notebook.  Looking at the two of you expectantly, she says, "So... where's the rest of your guild?"

[Harry Baldman]

To the Explorers' Guild! Doubtlessly exploration awaits there! Hope there aren't any further taxes that need to be paid. If the other unfortunates who came here with me are not there, rejoin the leaders wherever they may be found. Default to following those two if action not supplied.

[Caellath]

The young man glanced at Bianca with a complicit stare before turning his gaze back to the Guildmaster. "They're outside. We'll still have to recruit some of them formally." he answered coolly and without much worry, a confident smile dancing upon his lips.

He wasn't lying. In fact, he was being quite sincere about the fact they still didn't have a full group... Though things would certainly solve themselves - the other adventurers wanted the same thing they wanted and they had traveled in the same route, so it was just a matter of logic they could brave the labyrinth together.

[Ochita]

Bianca, to her credit didn't even blink one eye out of line, as she nodded to the Highlander's words, before adding her own part to the conversation. "Yes, if you'd excuse us then Guildmistress, we'll collect the rest of our group." Giving a short bow, she made her way to the exit, and coolly waited for the highlander to follow.

[Caellath]

"I'm Dahne Tuhlann, by the way." With a friendly wave and a smile to the Ronin, Dahne turned on his heels and left the room as well, following Bianca as when he noticed the girl making her discrete escape. Though he wasn't sure they needed to leave so suddenly, the Highlander didn't want to let the girl leave all by herself when she was likely expecting him to follow. It'd probably be better if they acted on it right then, anyway.

He caught up to the Princess and began to accompany her, purposefully slowing down his own steps so he wouldn't walk faster than the small girl (woman?).

[Ochita]

Waiting until the highlander had left the room with her, Bianca walked over to a nearby street intersecting with the plaza, with the street itself giving some shade. Leaning against the wall of some generic building, she gave a small sigh as she finally relaxed her legs a little from the long trek. Looking up at the highlander, she straightened herself out and held out her hand. "My name is Bianca Pierson, the third. Going by what you just said then, I'll take it that we'll be working together in exploring the labyrinth. We should probably wait for the others that we arrived with to come to this place, then draw them aside before they enter and convince them that we should all form a singular guild of our own."

[SeriousConcentrate]

Shiloh watched the two go into the guildhall and then immediately come back out. He looked at his companion and shrugged, then raised his shield in greeting; Cyra was being unusually quiet. Maybe she just wasn't used to the heat. Either way, even though he didn't like dealing with unknown humans, it seemed up to him. He followed them over to the side street, but kept glancing over at Cyra to make sure she was fine.

"...Greetingsss," he said after a moment. "Isss there a problem with the guild? I wasss jussst wondering why you left it ssso quickly."

[Caellath]

"My name is Bianca Pierson, the third. Going by what you just said then, I'll take it that we'll be working together in exploring the labyrinth. We should probably wait for the others that we arrived with to come to this place, then draw them aside before they enter and convince them that we should all form a singular guild of our own."

"You heard my name. And I think it won't be too hard, looks like they're here to explore the place too." Dahne stared at her hand for a moment in silence, his confident smile faltering as he seemed to consider the correct course of action. Then, as if setting for a middle ground between the options he had been considering, he shook her hand for a couple of seconds before turning it expose its back and kissing it - probably only getting his lips to touch the surface of a glove or piece of armor. He'd been oriented to perform that gesture as a way of greeting high-class ladies but it was never specified the hand should be bare or covered only by the kind of gloves noblewomen wore.

Nevertheless, he didn't seem to care much.

"...Greetingsss," he said after a moment. "Isss there a problem with the guild? I wasss jussst wondering why you left it ssso quickly."

The highlander turned his head to answer the arrival's question. "We decided to come back with a complete group. Talking of which, wanna join us?" he asked.

[SeriousConcentrate]

"...Perhapsss. I would sssay I should asssk my friend firssst, although you sssaying a 'complete group' impliesss we don't have much choice if we wisssh to enter the labyrinth." Shiloh scratched the back of his head with a sigh. "My name isss Ssshiloh Malkarya. My friend'sss name isss Cyra."

[Caellath]

"I'm Dahne Tuhlann and this here is Bianca Pierson. Good to have you with us." he replied, conveniently forgetting to add the rest of the the Princess' name (or, more accurately, numeral).

[SeriousConcentrate]

Shiloh nodded to both. "What about the other two who came with usss? Will we need to ssseek them out asss well?"

[Harry Baldman]

"I'm Dahne Tuhlann and this here is Bianca Pierson. Good to have you with us." he replied, conveniently forgetting to add the rest of the the Princess' name (or, more accurately, numeral).

Mackay raises a finger questioningly.

"Ah! Are we performing introductions right now? For I am Maximus K. Mackay, Laureate of the Order of Maximum Kill Seventh Class for the admittedly humble achievement of dispatching the Great Whining Hooter of the West. I must say, it was an immense pleasure to travel with all five of you without once hearing your names thus far, or being required to provide my own. A reprieve from the vagaries of polite society, as it were."

[SeriousConcentrate]

Shiloh shrugged. The pair of them had mostly kept to themselves, so it was only natural he hadn't introduced himself to the rest of the group. "Maximus," he said with a nod to the hunter.

[Caellath]

"I napped through most of the trip myself. In any case, hey Maximus. Joinin' us?" Dahne replied. Indeed, he had kept his eyes closed throughout most of the trip whenever walking hadn't been involved. Though to most onlookers it didn't look like he had in fact been sleeping, it became easier to guess it for anyone who had paid some attention to him and noticed he only woke up now and then before returning to his extremely long naps. The fact he didn't snore probably helped conceal that fact.

Spoiler: OOC (click to show/hide)

Well, some people went with the "didn't make introductions during the trip" thing and I decided to go with it as far as communication with them went, since my character wouldn't go around screaming his name so people would know it while he'd be ignorant of theirs. It's the difficulty of handling implied/background introductions sometimes.
