Flight from Rohan RPG

She watched the new man, sitting there, as he was one of them. Liol halfway hid herself behind Rochil who was silent, and it looked as he was going to stay that way. Both Brytta and especially Adwulf asked the newcomer questions. Liol didn't dare come forwards. Her first impression was; they were caught and there was no way out. But somehow, the impression had slightly changed after a couple of moments had passed. A ranger, she thought. His way of dressing and his hair; all sweaty. She bent over to get an even better view, and Rochil standing before her, turned around and watched her move ness. She gave him two innocent eyes, telling him to stand still. The man nodded, but then slid away. And there she stood, a tiny lady having no power at all over her appearing redness in her face. Oh, this is so embarrassing she thought. She grew redder while thinking of herself being scared at first and now she stood before this Awyrgan.

However, the stranger didn't seem to notice the tiny lady, he was talking to her cousin about his doings.

"Tell me, if you will, are you one of those Rangers we hear of and never see. What business brings you to this section of forest? As Brytta said, we are lost. But you, it appears are not. Are you here by chance, and will you aid us. Or do you seek to hinder us?" she heard Adwulf ask, while Liol taking a step backwards, giving Rochil a stare.

No way was this over yet, Liol thought. She had asked him to forgive her, but that was obviously not enough. But something in her mind warned her against a 'war' between them. What if he hadn't meant it? Liol took a deep breath; it was helping her not to have an oral attack at her friend again. Rochil didn't notice her intense eyes, lightened with fire. It seemed to her that he as too busy catching up with the conversation going on. Liol stood in the background, thinking very hard. Who was this man, and why was Rochil acting like that? Was he doing it on purpose? Liol grinned, taking her eyes away from the group, wishing she was somewhere else..
