Deeringly Meeting more people!

[Atlas Steele]

Right now, Atlas was having a huge issue at this point, the deer that was pulling his cart, the green hoove (https://prnt.sc/kfxrhd) having stopped it's trek after stumbling upon a small patch of flowers that were growing to the side, his entire supply of materials in the back having mostly vanished after all the trading he had been doing, but above all, he had a small cluster of creatures that were playing a card game against each other on the side.

Staring out towards the city that he was stuck in, staring towards the many buildings, he was not quite sure what was going on in this area, what kind of building techniques they used, but above all, the lack of technology that had been gone and replaced in the recent years, much of this information has vanished.



Yet as he took the information in, slowly swallowing it to be digested in his old thinker, the man then started to take out his notes before starting to look over his notes once again.

Making sure not to let his eye of his own cart in the case any other people wanted to sneak in the back again.

[Thorn Wyatt]

Elias walks right up to the green hoove, staring at it intensely.

Then he eyes the cart.

"Hm."

Elias starts heading over to start undoing the harness to free the animal!

[Stigma Wyatt]

Rose is definitely kinda sneaking in the back. But not to steal...not on purpose. After stalking Elias around up to this point, she just really wanted to know what was in the cart!

She goes up heft herself up and keep her legs dangling outside, kicking them around happily as she takes a look around!

[Atlas Steele]

Atlas himself looked around, confused at first that somebody dared to get over to the beasts, as the harness was being removed, knowing full well that the green hoove wasn't forcibly tamed, he would let out a soft chuckle.

"Come on buddy, come on, if you wanted to play with the green hoove, there is no need to end up removing the harness.
These beasts have been living alongside us idiots for quite some time."

The beast itself simply grunting before going back to consuming what was laying on the ground before.

In the back of the cart were a large collection of pre-war styled bars of cereal and dried fruits, a sweet and quick snack in all honesty with a few barrels and cups to drink from them, the sweet smell being intoxicating to say the least.
The drinks made from peach, strawberry and melon mixed carefully to retain their unique flavours.

"Seriously, if any of you guys want a drink, go ahead and take one of the cups in the back."

[Thorn Wyatt]

"Play?"

Elias peeks around the creature to look at the... large... man...

"I was taking it."

He says it matter-of-factly, like this happens all the time.

[Stigma Wyatt]

"It smells so nice!!" Rose giggles, kicking her legs some more to try and crawl further into the cart.

She's rummaging since now she has permission to get the drink.

But she's interested in the weird bars too.

"Elias there's all sorts of food!"

[Atlas Steele]

Seeing the kid trying to take it, Atlas would simply have a loud, powerfull blast of laughter escape his torso, exploding outwards as he could feel his hands clutching his stomach before then slowly wiping away his own tears and simply snapping his fingers with a soft whistle.

"This one is called William, William, come 'ere"

The beast standing up and making a soft grunt as it made its way over to Atlas, massive height and fierce appearance aside, a soft trail of grass and flowers left behind it as a hand was placed on the lowering head.

"If you wish to take animals, first you must think of a way to convince it to come along, especially as it is a Qi beast."

Before then turning to the creature that was talking in the back, seeing that it was a young lady.

"Try some of these! They are great and the food that is laying here can be eaten and taken if you want too.
It is easily enough for six months if you kids eat for five adults seperatedly!
I was planning to sell some of these but they just do not right enough for the prissy adults that want to get some fancy food on their plates.
So, may i have the names of you both? Mine is Atlas, These three little ones i have no clue on their names though."

Lifting up the kids that were playing a card game on his cart, as their voices were plentifull and had some underling argueing as they bumped into each other.

[Thorn Wyatt]

Elias does not like that laughter one bit. He feels like he's being laughed AT!

"I was going to make it follow. Same as the horses I have at home."

He doesn't have horses.

"But we can take the food too. Rose, start grabbing food."

Inadvertently, they'd already mentioned each other's names already.

[Stigma Wyatt]

"Okay!!"

She got permission from TWO people now, so she just starts stuffing her apron with as much food as she can.

"Mmm...i-it would be easier if we could just move it all with this cart..."

She doesn't mean to suggest stealing the cart...

Her attention is grabbed by the mention of Qi sprites, and she peers over to see them, her eyes practically sparkling with awe. She'd never seen one before! Let alone a few! She saw a Qi beast once and it exploded because of Cael so...

"I'm R-Rose!" she kindly says, even though Elias more or less told him for her. "A-are you going to name them?"

LIKE CUTE PETS.

[Atlas Steele]

Atlas would raise an eyebrow at the person before himself, surprised that he would have such a simple way of handling animals before letting out a sigh.

"William, do not move unless the kid gives you a good reason too, just like you promised the kids at home, okay?"

Before turning back to the girl that was losing it about the little Sprites that were acting up because they bumped into each other.
A soft smile crossing his face as he sighed lightly, a content one that was filled with a strange kind of happiness as he would smile wider.

"They have no name yet, i have told them that they can take their own names if they wish too."

The red one being the first to speak up as the other two looked confused.

"I am going to want a burning hot name! Otherwise i will burn everything to the ground! Wahaha!"

It did not take long for Atlas to shush the creature using his finger as he sighed a little.

"They have no manners as you can see, Do you wish to have some assistance carrying the stuff over if you do not live nearby?
With the obvious attitude your little boyfriend has over there... Something must have happened.
Using my oath to my village, i can promise you that i will not laugh or berate any of your expieriences, so go ahead and tell me what is going on okay?"

The three sprites soon managing to climb ontop of Atlas his arm and moving about rather contently.

[Thorn Wyatt]

Well. If you just have to talk to the thing...

"William. If you don't come with me, I'm going to kill you."

Elias says simply, before looking at Atlas again, blankfaced.

"Take your children out of the cart, I don't want them."

[Stigma Wyatt]

Rose looks a bit uncomfortable with the threat to the creature, but, otherwise reacts like she's used to it.

While she starts trying to help the fire one think of a HOT HOT name, she blinks at the question she's asked.

"Mm? Nothing happened..." she says, blushing at the use of "boyfriend" that she can't even dare to say herself. "In 256 we just take things otherwise someone else will."

What do people call them? Ah that's right.

"We're poor!" she smiles!

[Atlas Steele]

William who just finished looking at Atlas, lowered his head to be heard by the kid that was talking shit like this.
Before suddenly it heard the words, swinging its head upwards, slowly towering above the small creature with a light beast like gasp, the creature took a few steps backwards before sitting down, Facing atlas like somebody just spat in its face.

"No no william, he is probably just a bit miffed, But Rose was it? Beautifull for a name, just as Elias sounds pretty fucking cool does it not?
But as you take things in 256, we at our home are taught that by asking nicely you can get quite a few things...
Although i must admit that many people are evil and just kick others away... Scum! that's what i call those assholes who do not help!"

Before then thinking to himself...

"You know what, let us make a deal, i am willing to supply you two with food, maybe some extra if you do the job extra good.
But i have been trading in this vacinity for not too long and i need information.
Things that have happened and all that, if done, i am willing to bring along a month supply of food and drinks to this town or wherever you guys live.
Every month."

[Thorn Wyatt]

What in the hell kind of horse is this!? Elias' frown only deepens, and he's pretty sure he's going to murder this horse, massive man, and his stupid kids.

Until he hears about getting more food...

"What information?"

Because more food on a regular basis was better than just one cart for today.

[Stigma Wyatt]

Rose's cheeks flush at the complement, and she sways side to side bashfully.

And then she's snapped back by the offer.

"E-Elias! Food every month!"

The people would be so happy!

"A lot of things happen..." she agrees with Elias' question. They could just list stuff that happens, but, surely the man wanted something more specific.
