The plague may have been taken care of on the Bastion's end, but there's still something that's been bothering two residents of the Bastion. The fact of the matter was that there was another group of survivors out there. Ura survivors. Considering the recent incident between them and a group from the Bastion, however, and it's clear that careful steps need to be taken.

That's why the group gathered for this recent expedition more or less looks rather harmless, which is just as Zulf prefers it, but can still take care of themselves, which is how Colin does. All the necessary items have been packed along with them, including a set of spare clothing for Tobias just in case and some of the cure for the plague. It's been a bit of a journey, but, well... here they are. The same place that the cure recovery group once was.

Instead of his usual attire, Zulf is wearing the outfit which a couple of the group might remember from Night's funeral. It's not his preferred wear, but... it's the most Ura kind of clothing he immediately has on hand. He'll have to rectify that for later... But for now he turns to the rest of the group. "Everyone's doing alright so far?"

Ah.

Zulf's hand falls away from the amulet. "That makes things easier, doesn't it?" he says quietly, perhaps a bit numb and more to himself than anything. It looks like he'll be keeping his own for the time being. He keeps speaking in Ura- partially because there's others who don't have it, partially because his mind is still clinging to it as it tries to smother the panic still boiling about inside of him. His next words are spoken a little louder. "Two weeks, then. I'll make sure the amulets are brought." Hands folding in front of one another, he gives a slight bow. "Lemaign and Jevel keep you safe and well."

And with that, he'll turn to go, muttering under his breath.

"Let's leave, please." Without a 'script' for his mind to more or less follow, he's not sure how long he can keep himself together for much longer with this large of a group.

Tobias eyes the leader carefully and waits until the others turn, taking up the rear. He can always kick backwards if he has to. He needs to get out of this morph soon, but as soon as they start moving and are out of sight of the Ura he stamps impatiently.

<... We should bring food next time. They might appreciate it. But I need to find somewhere to demorph.>

[stormsinbraids]

"... Well, that would have been nice to know." That someone had lost an amulet before. They kept to being rather quiet anyway, so Tris isn't terribly bothered by that revelation.

She does purse her lips for a moment, and tug one of her breezes so that it loops from the Ura group to them. They seemed calmed down, so the threat of being attacked from behind was low, but anything interesting muttered would be brought to them.

Colin, unlike everyone else, actually laughs happily when he sees the pendant, and he nods. "As you say, two weeks" he says, and he bows his his head. "Thank you for your understanding."

He turns to Zulf, and he smiles. "Come on, Zulf. Let's get you out of here, you look about ready to pass out," he says gently, putting a steadying hand on Zulf's back.

[fuckthemancers]

"I'll be fine." Which is likely a boldfaced lie, to be honest, but Zulf is trying very very hard not to think about his own reactions. He just pays attention to Tobias. "I'm sorry for keeping you like this for so long- Tris, are we far enough now?"

[notachickenhawk]

<It's fine. It's better than being a bug.>

Bugs are the worst. No contest.

[stormsinbraids]

"Most likely. They seem content with being confused and somewhat hopeful back where we left them. Unless there are some still hiding around here?" And that would be to Colin. He seems to be able to Tell.

[freedom_engineer]

"They're spread a little thin for that, and frankly, that commander's confused as all hell by us," Colin says. "Nobody's following us now, though I wouldn't be surprised if he sends out a tracker to follow our tracks when he finally settles on a course of action. Whether anyone's WILLING to do that is another question. If our cure is real, we just saved a lot of lives there, and I don't think anyone wants to leave when their loved ones, or at least people important to them, are finally out of danger."

He glances at Tobias, and he grins. "I think you're good to shift back, in other words," he adds.

[fuckthemancers]

"You could have just said that at the beginning," Zulf mutters from behind his hand.

"So... two weeks." That's something else he wants to bring up before anything else happens.

[notachickenhawk]

Tobias trots off to go demorph. It'll take a few minutes, so he doesn't have much to contribute until he gets back.

[freedom_engineer]

"Yes, but then you wouldn't have had enough information," Colin says, grinning. "Two weeks. Thoughts?"
