((Welcome, new guys, hope you like it here ^_^ And Almighty GM, I'd like 1 SP in Paralytic Venom & 1 SP in Purge Magic, please!))
A bonk on the side of her head drew her attention back to the male Dryad, & she looked at him quizzically. "What was that for?" But he only chirruped in response, like- Like an animal, she thought. Is he feral? He suddenly turned & tried to advance upon the dying Trent again, growling in obvious pain. Morea stood before him & raised her hands. "No," she said with authority, hoping he would understand the tone & motions if not the words. "Sit down or you'll hurt yourself again." She gently pushed him to a sitting position, pointing to his arm as a reminder.
She turned back to the dying Trent who Ashling had now pinned to reduce it's stuggling. She concetrated for a few seconds, looking the poor creature over & choosing a large burned opening in it's side. Small spines pushed their way through the skin of her arms, each glistening with a clear fluid. She breathed slowly, & with one last look at the pained eyes of the Trent, she shoved both arms, hard, into the opening & held them their for a moment. The Trent's struggling slowed, it's screams gurlged out & at long last it closed it's eyes. "It's a venom," she explained to Ashling as she released her hold. "It normally induces a temporary paralysis, but in high enough doses, especially to a very injured creature, it can be deadly." She slowly pulled her arms out of the now-silent Trent & the spines retracted. She laid a hand on the Trent's side "I'm sorry," she whispered, before turning back to the injured Dryad.
She examined the Dryad's broken arm while Theridan stalked after Nine stalking after Zuberi. She hadn't meant to lose her temper at Nine, but he hadn't taken much if any notice. Probably for the best, she mused as she worked on healing & binding the newcomer's arm. She tried to test how much if any language comprehension he had. "What is your name?" She placed her hand to her chest. "Morea," she said & then motioned to him. She repeated the motion & her name a few more times in the hopes he would understand. As for his arm, well, she had no medicine & could not heal it completely, but if she could make him understand that he should not use it for a while- She sighed audibly. This would not be easy.

(Sorry for not posting sooner. My grandmother isn't doing well >: we had to fly across country and I've finally gotten five minutes to myself.)
He nearly scrambled over the small female before she pushed him back, and he would wince a little bit as she pushed him back down. It was clear enough that she wanted him to stay still, and his arm didn't feel good anyways, so he followed her request. She was still speaking in an odd tongue, and he had no idea what she was was trying to tell him.
She left him alone for a little bit and he watched as she finished off the strange tree-beast. She was clearly stronger than she looked, which was good. A pack must be strong for the group to survive, and the pack was only as good as it's weakest member. Was that him right now though? The rest of them had managed to avoid being hurt, so maybe he was the weak one?
His musings were interrupted by the female coming back and trying to talk to him again. She made a few gestures and said something, but it didn't sound familiar to him.
"Mo...mor...Moreela?" he mimicked, stumbling over and butchering the word. He furrowed his brow in concentration and confusion and stared at her, blinking slowly. He was trying to understand this strange turn of events, but it just wasn't making any sense. Looking around it seemed like everything was calming down, and the adrenaline was beginning to leave his blood. He felt his arm begin to throb more painfully so he sat down in a more comfortable position and nursed his arm, looking back at Morea.
"Orea...? ...Moreo?" he said curiously.
He paused for a moment and cocked his head, the look of concentration returning.
"Oreo?"

Realizing he had been detected, Nine let the branches snap back in place. Then looked through them again, to find that both boys were, in fact, still staring in his direction. He smiled and waved cheerily. "Nothing to see here! Go back to whatever it is you were doing." Eyes the size of tea cups, he lowered his head and watched them intently.
Until a tree entered the area. Nine rolled his eyes when he heard Azaria speak and stood up. "That isn't a dryad; it's a tree. With dryads in it. Trees have the pleasant property of being flammable," he said angrily. "My name, as Zuberi has failed to point out because he has rendered himself mute, is Saturnine Rhapsody." He bowed with a flourish, some of the teeth and claws he had sewn into his hair swinging as he did so, and continued. "Is there... any... particular reason for me not to kill you?" he asked the new boy.

((sorry for being gone so long! I had pretty much no internet while on vacation sad ))
Morea could do little but giggle at the male Dryad's attempts at her name. "That is close, at least." She smiled as she finished bandaging his arm. "but I still do not know what to call youuUUUU!" she yelped as Ashling picked her up. She knew Ashling was being gentle, but she was still a bit on edge from the battle. "Please, some warning next time?" She helped the male dryad to settle himself, then watched as Zuberi re-emerged from the wood, followed by a young man. A Druid, by the looks of him, with some strange ideas about Dryads. She simply laughed & smiled down at the youth while trying to hold on to the furious Trent.
Suddenly the male Dryad was gesticulating wildly, trying to speak in his unusual chittering way. Morea at last understood & she started digging in her satchel, only to realize she had very little of her dried fruit left. Ah well, I can easily make more, she thought, & offered them to the wounded Dryad.
She was rather enjoying the strange interaction between the newcomer, Azaria, & Nine who had returned to his former swagger. When Zuberi brought up the subject of foraging along the way, she shook her head in agreement. "That is something I think I can help with." Then she looked towards the male Druid "Perhaps you can help as well..."

Azaria lifted his hands in defeat, though his face remained blank.
"Sorry. You're just the first that I've met. I had a teacher who taught me about these things, but I'm bad at retaining information. If you're offended, I didn't mean it. Please, you have my apologies."
He raised his left glove, stared at it, then started dragging his right pointer finger around on it. When he was done, he slapped the back of his head with the left glove, his head bucking forward as a loud whack resonated. The Druid looked dazed for a bit, stepping back on a foot as he fell backwards, but was now fine. He turned to the dryad who now adressed him.
"I'll do what I can, but I was never good at foraging. Animal urges and things. I tend to eat where I stand. Or sit. Or hang from. That is to say, I'm not good at holding food for a long time."
As if to agree with him, his stomach let out a long growl. Azaria frowned.
"Wait up, would you?"
He punched himself in the stomach, and the growling ceased. Or at least, went down to a whimper.
"Urgh. I think as long as I eat my fill before I start foraging, I'll be able to restrain myself. So yes. I can help."
