Lanky Linx says, "I think you would be a great addition to the act. Your size, presence, Everything! is outstanding."

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken having heard voice while out hunting Forsaken turned to them. When he saw the two other men he stood watching them or a moment his gaze looking as if he was seeing through them to their core. His skins , leathers and strange necklace that seems to be made from a small bird skull had blood over them that was fresh. The man did not seem wounded at all though he was carrying something over his shoulder that was wrapped up in furs. He did not say anything yet as he waited for the other two men to get finished with what they were speaking about.

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
It's less a logging camp and more a makeshift clearing that had been roughed into existence by hand, and brawn, with a few felled trees here and there, some bound together by thick rope and chain and stripped of their branches and roots such that they look like immense logs and less like trees. Mountain hadn't exactly prepared the place with company in mind and had come out to get more material for Karal..and yet here Lanky Linx is. He's got his back to the man while he dusts his hands off and speaks - deep bass voice rumbling, "Oooh..I don't know. You're a circus already established, no? A proper circus already has a proper strongman. Don't you think I'd be causing trouble, getting into the middle of this?"

As of yet, he's ot noticed the stranger off in the distance, watching themboth.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx responds �Yes, we have a strong man but is he as strong as you? No sir, he is not! You are your name: a Mountain!� Linx holds his arms out wide. �Think of the looks of awe and wonder on the kids faces. The looks of admiration on the ladies. The jealousy on the men's while they will marvel at your strength.�

Linx walks around to be able to see Mountain better and sees a man at the edge of the clearing. He straitens up his colorful vest and cries out �Good day good sir. May we help you?�

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken turned to Linx "No I was out hunting and heard some voices came to see who was out this way. Do not tend to find people while I am out." He said calmly to the man. He looked about the clearing "Though I figured I would come see what anyone out here was doing but you were in the middle of something so decided to wait."

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
Mountain Thrower raises an eyebow at Linx and then grins, "I don't mind competition but it's as you say. I'd like not to humiliate another or make them seem obsolete unless I am getting something out of it.. I.." He then pauses and turns as Forsaken is noted and he squints his eyes before responding with a full toothed grin, "Greetings, friend! Hunting, you say?" He looks Forsaken over, noticing the bblood, "..A rather messy hunt it seems. Due to attract more animals, no doubt!"

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx hops onto one of the logs and strolls towards the new comer with his hands behind his back in a lazy manner. �I understand your concern,� he responds to Mountain. �And I will not press the issue any farther.� He turns back towards Mountain with a sly look on his face. �I'm sure Ranko wouldn't be too happy either.� Spinning again, he continues down the log. �Is this your normal hunting ground? I have been out here a few times recently and haven't seen anyone. Well,� nodding back towards Mountain. �Not anyone other than my little friend over there.�

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken shook his head "No I hunt as I travel. I just happened to come out this way this time." He answered "I meant normally I do not see people they tend to not like the wilds to much." By the way he said it seems he was perfectly fine out there in the wild. Now he turned to Mountain "I twisted the boars head more then I meant to. It cough up blood on to me. Though yes had to deal with some things coming for me dealt with them already." was his simple answer.

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"Now why would you mention our dear Ranko." asks Mountain, meeting the sly smile with that big full toothed grin, "Perhaps you are concerned with what she may offer me?" He clucks his tongue against the roof of his mouth and rumbles, "Now now, you must know how to negotiate better then this!" But something said by the newcomer catches his attention, "You....twisted the boar's head off? With your hands?"

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx is also curious as to the neck snaping of a boar and awaits a response with a questioning look on his face

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken shook his head again "Not off just twisted it around. But yes with my hands." He dropped what he was carrying which was the boar and its head was turned 180 degress as the man just said. Though its tongue looked as if it was bitten in half. Forsaken pointed "It bit its tongue while I grabbed it. I got tried of hunting with weapons years ago so I hunt with my hands now. Makes it more of a challenge." He said simply.

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"You grew -tired- of hunting with weapons!" Mountain lets out a loud racous laugh in disbelief and in contrast at how simmple FOrsaken is commenting to this. He leans forward, placing a foot on one of the logs while putting one hand on his hip. He gestures with the other at Lanky Linx, "Do you not hear how matter of fact he is about this? He might as well be telling us about his skill at knitting for how casual he is about the fact that he hunts and kills boars with his barehands."

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken shrugged "I am from the Linowan tribes. We push ourselves to do better. Only way to gain status and such. I have been a hunter long time just makes sense to move on to a challenge when you want to prove yourself. As for matter the fact I do not see the need to tell stories or tales about things. I have enough of those about me as it is do not need more." He shook his ehad a bit about that did not seem he enjoyed the fact there are stories and tales about him.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx says "His respons did seam lack luster. Seeing people gored by boars I know they are no laughing matter." Linx chuckles a bit. "Look at the people I am meeting here. A literal mountain and a bear handed beast hunter. I must say, your humanity may be in question if we were not so close to the Wylde."

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"That perspective seems dangerous." comments Mountain, matter of factly, "If you don't recognize your abilities and skills you'll ultimately lose perspective im the ability to recognize the abilities of others...and to know when great things are infront of you." He pauses and considers matters though. Though he appears brutish and his absurd immensity suggests a man only interested in physical abilities..he seems to know Creation well enough. "...Is not Linowa..far? Why are you here?" He does pause and then asks Linx, "What do you imply? That we are from The Wyld?"

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken makes a face of hate when Linx says about the Wyld seems the man does not like it "No I am just skilled at what I do." He turned to Mountain "My people are not feared because we live with a normal perspective though yes it is dangerous. Many of our youth die because of it but those that live through it are stronger and better which mets the standards we have. But that is my view and my people I am not the one to explain it or try to make people understand." He said to the percespective seems dangerous "To why I am here I am looking for something." THat was all he had to say on it and did not seem to want to say anymore about it.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx wonders about what would bring this hunter so far from their homeland. "Forged from the fires of trials. Interesting. Is there a trail that you are searching for?" Could it be in regards to you dislike for the Wylde?" Linx's eyes search for visual clues while his ears listen for inflections and wording to glean more from Forsaken's words than he intends.

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken looked at the man for a long time not moving not even a muscle as he stood there before he finally spoke "No trial and it has nothing to do with the Wyld. I dislike the Wyld because of the Haltans and their dealing with the fae." He says Haltan like it was some kind of curse.

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"Hm." the immense man shrugs, rolling his vast muscles before gesturing absently with his hand in the direction of Forsaken, "No need for an explanaton or to impose understanding." he says in a tone that says, 'I don't care'. "IF that is your way, it is your way. At least you have some acknowledgement of the damage it can do. But at the very least, since you do know these things, have some sense to know that twisting the head of a boar in a complete circle is not a thing of casual ability to spoken of so lightly and easily. Especially in strange company." Mind you there's the question of how these logs got here but he leaves that out of the equation.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx not infering any falsehood to Forsaken's response. Linx's gaze lighens and he hops onto another log with a flip. "I must agree with Mountain. Unless you look to inspire people, great acts are best left undone. You might want to set it's head straight before going into town."

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken looked at them oddly. "I was going to cook it and eat it not bring it to any town. As for telling others about it you asked. Not as if you are likely to see me again. I travel a great deal as I said so the likely hood of sommeone seeing me twice is very low." Was his answer "As for casaully and lightly is how I speak of things. If you say something was a challenge you are showing it was hard for you." His strange view again..

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx nods to Forsaken's reply. "Well, we are keeping you from your meal. Enjoy it as I am sure you worked hard for it."

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"Stranger things have been happening in this area of late." comments Mountain, looking amused again at Forsaken. A stark contrast to the other mans demeanor no doubt. "To assume we will not meet again is..normal I guess..but you are -not- normal..are you?" He then shrugs as he hears Linx, "Oh, he is welcome to cook and eat here if he wishes. NO one is trying to run him off.." he smirks, "..what..are you uncomfortable? He's absolutely safe! Unless you are a boar!"

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken looked at Mountain "I am no more normal then you or him." He gestured to Linx "If you think yourselves not normal then I would be the same." He said simply "And no it is fine I am sure you two have some things to finish speaking on that I stopped when I appeared." With that he got the boar lifting it again.

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"WHo said we were 'normal'?" says the eight foot plus, tall bruiser with biceps bigger around then some tree trunks. "Clearly we are not." Mountain continues..and then asks, "..What's 'normal'?"

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx waves to Forsaken and says "Enjoy the rest of your day and best of luck on your journey." He turns back to Mountain. "I'm normal."

**Mountain Thrower (4) has posed:**
"Most normal people arent circus acrobats as daring as you." counters Mountain.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx quips back "How many are acrobats to start with?" He strikes a standing pose.

**Forsaken (31) has posed:**
Forsaken waved as he walked off with his kill of the day leaving the two men to speak among themselves.

**Lanky Linx (34) has posed:**
Lanky Linx and Mountain continue to have light conversation as Forsaken leaves with his boar. The two talk of many things as Mountain is more philosophical than Linx originally expected.
