Cherith wasn't exactly sure if the Forgemaster would want to partner up with her herd as a potentiall ally, as his trade was incredibly useful if the Thunderbirds ever needed to protect themselves, but she wasn't going to say no to building relations with a valuable individual. Cherith was a diplomat for her herd and family, and she took great pride in what she did. Burning bridges wasn't in her vocabulary.
She had agreed to face the creature called Death with Chernobyl by her side, or on her back in this particular case, since she was soaring through the air to cover the distance quickly. It seemed like, from the job board posting she had seen, that this Death thing was going to be powerful, and that she might need back up, but Cherith was too determined and too foolhardy to take the time to ask for assistance other than what Chernobyl would provide her.
"Cherith, look, below us." Chernobyl pipped up from inside her hood. The fox familiar was never a fan of flying, and preferred to stick back on her shoulder, tucked safely inside the massive hood that she wore, but every now and again he would survey the area and spot things that Cherith would miss.
"Oh! There's other's headed the same way we are!" Cherith smiled, glad that her cards were lining up nicely. "Let's see if they'll let us join them." She quickly swooped down from the air, landing a few feet in front of the group of mares and their familiars. "Are you all taking on the Forgemaster's job posting?" Cherith offered them all a warm smile. They seemed plenty capable... she wondered if they were from a herd of their own. "My name's Cherith, and this is Chernobyl," the fox stuck his head out from the cover of her hood as she introduced them. "We'd love to help you if we could."

Asteria watched carefully as the mare landed before them before she let herself relax. She was not known to them, naturally, but that she was female meant she was given some level of trust - an angeni as well meant she was not perceived as much as a threat, particularly to three flock sisters.
Fayth eyed the fox with one eye open before she puffed her feathers out and began snoozing, as was her habit. There was no threat and no food and that meant that, for now, she was not needed.
"A pleasure, sister," All women were descendants of the Great Mother in some form. "I am Asteria. This is Fayth, my companion. My sisters, Athena and Vanealote and their companions, Sungrass and Arcania." At her offer of help, she turned to the other two. "The decision is yours to make. I have not seen the foe but the Forgemaster seemed to be strong and even he showed concern. More help could be useful."

They progressed further into the woods, the sun disappearing behind the canopy. Asteria wasn't sure if the sudden chill was because of the lack of sunlight or something else entirely. She shivered softly. The pouch the Forgemaster had given her hung loosely at her side and she was grateful to feel its weight slapping against her - the contents would no doubt come in handy. Fayth was no longer sleeping and her feathers were puffed out, eyes wide. Suddenly, she called out.
"He comes."
Asteria stopped and peered into the darkness before them. No further explanation was needed - as soon as their eyes gazed upon the dark stallion they knew he was their target. Again, the mare shivered and she held her ground for a brief moment before she launched forward in attack. Her blow landed, though not as hard as she had intended, and she launched swiftly away from the creature's grasp.
"We fight!" She called out, though she knew her sisters needed no command to follow into battle.
Although Asteria was not a fighter by trade, all mares were trained to some level. Her skills, however, had never been tested in true battle before. The dice had been clear. She would fight this day. Whether she left unharmed was another matter entirely.
Asteria HP: 50/50 Death HP: 95/100
Note: At the end of Honey's turn, Death will deal 5 damage to each mare and restore his HP by 20.

Cherith grimaced at the rotten air, hating how it stung and filled her lungs. It seemed their target was approaching them, no doubt having sensed their party approaching him. Everyone was tense.
While she had been well aware of what this quest would require of her, Cherith hadn't received too much combat training. She wasn't intended to be a warrior, she was meant to go out and handle things diplomatically. There had been little reason to give her more than a few self-defense lessons before she went on her way, out in to the world. If only Cherith had insisted on more than just a few lessons.
The call came. Death was upon them. Yet her hooves refused to move, too petrified alone by the dark stallion's intimidating presence.
"Cherith!" Chernobyl cried out, trying to spur her in to action. They needed to work together, and having his bonded stand as still as a statue wasn't going to do the group any good.
"R-right," came her feeble reply. The mare looked on as her companions attacked swiftly, deftly, assured of themselves. They were ready for combat, well aware of what they were doing and what needed to be done. Could she do that? Would she be able to even contribute to the fight? Cherith shook her head to try and clear the doubt that was starting to weigh heavily on her. Pessimistic thinking wasn't going to get her anywhere. She needed to keep her optimism and remain her usual, cheerful self!
With a quick huff, she darted forward to deal the stallion a hefty blow, hoping to do a good chunk of damage to the imposing creature. It landed weakly, without much force behind it. She could only hope her future blows were more impressive, otherwise this would be a long fight.
Chernobly lunged at the stallion, sinking his sharp teeth into Death's flesh and then quickly backing off to put some distance between the two once more.
While Cherith enjoyed a good rush of adrenaline from time to time, this was perhaps the opposite of how she intended to get it.
Cherith's HP: 50/50 Death's HP: 85/100
*Death goes back to full HP.
