The dwarven men and women piled in behind the two half breeds. Most of them, mainly tired or lightly injured, ventured home to recuperate from previous victories. Others were not faring so well. The less injured helped them walk, and even Amber had thrown one of the men on her back after he collapsed into the snow.
The giant gates closed behind the group with a loud clang. That's when they split their own ways. Amber, the kind souls she was, carried helped most of the injured to the infirmary/hospital, and after that, it was just her and Jade. Amber smiled big at Jade and reached out her hand to shake. The canine-lady returned the gesture with a firm grip.
“Now that we have the moment, thought I'd introduce myself properly. I am Amber Veritz, Huntress-in-training and protector of the world of Remnant. A pleasure to make your acquaintance.” The faunus bowed to her new friend slightly as she introduced herself. The pride in her title made her face light up with glee. She could actually say that she was a protector of civilization.
“I'm Jade, Jade Harley. Nice to meet you Amber!” She replied, motioning Amber to walk with her. “What brings you to Dwarveholm?"
“Business purely. I'm trying to establish some peace in this verse. Dragons, Trolls and Dwarves are a bit crazy and hardly anything is tame around here. I built a trading post here in the Fields where lots of people from all over the verse can come and trade with others. It's like a small town underground.” Amber explained, making hand motions to emphasize most of what she was talking about.
“That sounds awesome. Do you guys really live underground?” Jade asked intriguingly. “Or is that just a figure of speech you use?
“No, we literally have a tunnel system of homes and shops underground beneath my fortress. It's pretty cool, you should come visit some time.” Amber led them into what seemed to be a tavern. The animal girls got odd looks as they entered, not only because they were obviously primes, but probably because of their animal like appearance. They took a seat at a table and waited for someone to wait on them.
“I've got to say, it’s awesome to finally see another faunus around the Omniverse.” Amber said happily. It was looking to be a pretty good day.
“What’s a faunus?” Jade asked, not knowing she had the resemblance of Amber’s own species.
“It's what we are, uh, right?”
“I've never heard that word before. Is it some kind of code? What’s it mean?” Jade continued to ask more questions, as was her curious nature. Most animals are born curious so it’s not surprising.
“Oh, I assumed you were from Remnant with your canine features. My species are called Faunus. We resemble humans, but always have some animalistic feature, like my ears.”
“I see. That’s a very interesting inheritance.” Finally one of the waitresses found time to take their orders. They both bought something to eat and drink and discussed some small talk.
“So what do you think of those guys at the front gate? That science-y dude seemed like he could have really used our help with something.” Amber said scarfing her face with food. Primes never got hungry, but Amber never forgets what fresh fish tastes like, and never will. Jade on the other hand ate much slower than Amber.
“Yeah, he did make it out to be a big deal. He said he was working with Camelot. I wonder what the Kingdom is doing here in the icy wastelands-” Amber blurted out loudly, cutting off Jade and attracting some eyes in their direction.
“Wonderland! Not a wasteland!” She yelled out, only realizing she had made a scene shortly after. She shoveled food down her throat like nothing had happened. Once the attention died back down, Amber continued their conversation. “You think we should help him? I have the free time, not really in much of a rush. I do have to make some alliances and getting in good with one of the big tits of the Omniverse doesn’t sound like a bad idea. What about you?”
The faunus continued to guzzle down her food, she was a fairly nice person but seemed to lack a lot of social grace. Interesting to say at the least.
