"I suppose that would depend. If I take your help, what would I need to do in turn?"
Things were not often free in life.
To the dark one sitting backwards on a camel, he shrugged impassively. His horse had snorted and got grumpy, but he was never spat upon or kicked or anything like that. Could horses spit anyway?
And then someone else came in, shouting. He raised a brow at her. She too seemed a bit familiar... He squinted at her.

"You don't need to do a damn thing in turn. Friends help friends, right?" He wasn't sure why but he felt a sort of bond with the loner.
Not a tight bond but a bond none the less.

Shun considered this for a few moments, then nodded to him.
"Very well. I accept. In turn I shall help.. if need be," he shrugged.
"...I don't think I know your actual name. However."

Hel chuckled as the big guy took the bag away from her, and whipped her head around as she felt an eye on her.
She squinted back at the reaper.
Yep, something rather familiar about this one as well, especially right around the time she had her wings torn off. Hel rubbed her chin, as if this would help the memory rattling around in her head, but alas, it didn’t. Instead, she settled for a wave and a grin to the eye-patch wearing reaper.
“I can not help but feel certain that I know you too, and hopefully I shall find out as we continue to move forward!”

"I'm Kettil," he said simply for the male's benefit. He wasn't going to just leave the poor guy hanging after pretty much giving him no choice about whether or not they were Allies.
It just wasn't done.

"Heavy hitters and bandage thieves. Those bandits are even more charmless than I thought," Ursula said with a sigh, though her spirits remained undaunted. Her soft smile returned as she added to Hel, "What's waiting at the end sounds exciting, though. Thank you."
She nodded to Olivia and Mimsy, and her smile widened a fraction at Kettil's greeting. "Hello to you too, new friend. Everyone's so friendly here."
All the introductions going around -- Hel, Olivia, not-Mimsy-but-Simmy, Kettil, just to name a few -- reminded her to give her name to the group at large as well. "I'm Ursula. Feel free to call on me as well."

"It's a shame that we don't have any scissors..." Mimsy mused, barely audible, wondering why anyone would ever use their teeth to tear something open.
She held up her hand and shook her head to decline the offer of jerky. It was very apparent that he wanted it far more than she ever would.
"That's sweet of you, but no thanks." Maybe if it had been a piece of cake instead of jerky... "I would've been sad if you changed your mind about me just because I look a little different."
That wouldn't have been why and she knew it.
Thankfully, there was a shift in the atmosphere, and she turned to cheerfully wave goodbye to the departing traveler.
"Good luck!" With all the talk of bandits and ambush, she couldn't help thinking that he might need it. If Hel had made it, though, that made one bit of proof that the journey was achievable.
"I'm curious to make it to the end of this journey too." She smiled at Ursula, idly wondering how many of them could be kings. Everyone? All of her friends here seemed pretty great. "And it's nice to meet you, Ursula. I hope that you reach the end without much trouble, so you can see it for yourself."

"Shun," he gave in turn before looking towards the dark skinned girl.
"You do seem rather familiar... I can't quite place my finger where I had seen you, however," he stated before giving a fairly impassive shrug, "I suppose we are to make some ties here. I can give you aid if you will do the same in turn."

"Not a problem, friend!" Hel grinned at Ursula. "Save travels! I wish you well, remember to hail if need be!"
She looked back towards the one who introduced himself as Shun. "Hel!" She returned, "And I am certain I shall be kicking myself once I can put my finger on this!" She laughed, but then nodded. "Of course! Granted, I am finished my with my journey now, but I will take you up on your word some other time, ya? Regardless, you have my aid! Just call when you need it."

Shun was a little surprised to hear this.
"You've succeeded then?" he said a little blankly. He then shook his head. If one managed to get through, it was more reason for him to push himself through this venture. He must succeed.
Looking around, he considered whether or not he should speak with any others. For now, he felt that he had rested enough. It was time to move out.

"I wish the same for you," Ursula said to Mimsy. "It would be good if everyone makes it through without too many misadventures along the way." She paused a beat, then grinned with a flash of sharp white teeth. "Then again, I miss danger when there's safety and safety when there's danger. I shouldn't be so contrary."
Hearing Hel's offer, she turned her grin on the other female. "I appreciate the offer! I'll remember it."

Sherry had been poking around looking at things and making sure that she had collected everything she could, when suddenly the pitstop was a very busy place. Lots of folks on the journey then?
As she made ready to go, she waved a hand at the group in general and called, "I'm Sherry! I'm about to head out again, so if anyone needs help, feel free to call on me."
She was giving her best friendly smile.
