"How do you store the information? Do you write it on scroll or something and give it to it? And how does it send the information? Obviously a messenger hawk or person is used to do so."
Aviva laughed but answered the questions in stride. "Sort of. You do write it, but not with a pen. I don't know how to explain it. That's a Brianna thing, she could tell you more. " Her face lit up. "You send messages through hawks? How does that work? Can you talk to them? Do they talk back?"
"I meant outside." "I'll be fine. Moving that boulder wasn't all that difficult. It's just been a while.
Brianna looked down at his sigh, deciding not to press him further. What was wrong with her? This wasn't how she normally acted- she typically hated bossing others around. Especially someone she had just met a few days ago. She shook her head- he wasn't Aviva, and she knew that he could take care of himself. "Alright. " She lay on her side facing a crystal. Back straight she focused on the light until she fell asleep.

"No, they don't talk," Atlas laughs. "No, you write a message on some parchment or scroll, and you tell the hawk the destination, and it carries the message to wherever it needs to go. They're really smart birds."
"Alright. "
Vane studies her after she lays down, expression hidden before he moves around the cavern, then decides to examine the other entrance for a few minutes.

Avivas eyes light up. "Can you teach me to use these messenger birds?!" She appeared in front of his face, hers curious and hopeful.
Bri sleeps with a light breath, a slight distress on her face even while she slumbers.

"Can you teach me to use these messenger birds?!"
"I-I don't know," he stammers, rubbing his neck again. "There's very few people that can control and train the hawks. And I'm not sure where to find them."

"I-I don't know,"
"You're doing it again." she replied in a bit of laughter. She still didn't understand his behavior, but she was glad it wasn't for the fact that he was hurting.
"There's very few people that can control and train the hawks. And I'm not sure where to find them."
"Oh." she looked away with a slightly sullen look on her face. "So.. lets go look for them."

"So.. lets go look for them."
He shakes his head, looking away. "I don't think that's a good idea right now, not with Vane and Bri being away." He pauses, studying the room, remembering the message Bri had sent earlier. "Something just doesn't feel right."

Aviva looked away, eyes narrowing. "I could have imagined it, but I noticed a scratch on her cheek." she replies with a whisper. "I know something's wrong."

"I could have imagined it, but I noticed a scratch on her cheek." she replies with a whisper. "I know something's wrong."
"Do you think they'll be back soon?" Atlas asks after a long moment. "Or maybe send a message to them to see when they'll be back? I don't want to disobey Vane, but if they need help, I won't hesitate to go help them."

"Do you think they'll be back soon?"
"I dont think theyll be back until this evening if theyre in trouble."
"Or maybe send a message to them to see when they'll be back? I don't want to disobey Vane, but if they need help, I won't hesitate to go help them."
"I might be able to, but if not I know I can find their coordinates."

Timeskip
Atlas sits upside down on Aviva's couch, face twisted up in thought and uncertainty, his eyes closed.Vane steps over to Bri, kneeling down and gently shakes her shoulder to wake her up. "Bri, wake up. The coast is clear outside." |

Aviva sits on the floor, propped up against the side of the couch, her chin on her knees.
"Bri, wake up. The coast is clear outside."
Brianna stirs awake after a moment, her eyes fluttering open. Although the effect was instant, you could tell that she didn't completely wake up willingly. As she pushed herself upright she stared at him. "What's wrong?" was the first thing she asked, for usually once woken-it was because something was wrong.

"What's wrong?"
He shakes his head as she sits up, moving back and giving her some space, then stands. "Nothing at the moment. But we should try returning back to Aviva and Atlas. It's been a while, and I'm sure the two of them are ready for us to return." He pauses a moment. "Are you all right to walk back?"

"Oh I agree with that. I admit I am surprised that there hasn't been a search party. Knowing Aviva she probably tried to get him to leave. "
"Are you all right to walk back?"
"Hmmm?" She turned to him with the after effects of sleep evident on her face. "It's just a scratch. Though that's probably not what you meant."

"Oh I agree with that. I admit I am surprised that there hasn't been a search party. Knowing Aviva she probably tried to get him to leave. "
"And Atlas would've held his ground, knowing I told him to stay," he murmurs in thought, remembering the bandits.
"Hmmm?" She turned to him with the after effects of sleep evident on her face. "It's just a scratch. Though that's probably not what you meant."
Vane offers a small smile. "Well, I wasn't exactly gentle in dragging you all this way, and for that you have my apologies."

Brianna grew quiet a moment. "That's good then. They don't need to get harmed because of me. Neither do you. " Her gaze flicks to his arm.
"Well, I wasn't exactly gentle in dragging you all this way, and for that you have my apologies."
She blinked before returning a small smile of her own. "I think that were both equally guilty in that aspect. After all they were after me. I apologize if I damaged any of your belongings earlier. "
