Re: The Road is Full of Dangers (Rene;Aust)
Lola looked at Rene with a half-lidded glance. "It's just a Xiongmao village from the looks of it..." she said with half disinterest. "Just be careful of it's inhabitants. If you've ever met with a Grizzly before, these people are like their distant cousins. They may look like cute, fluffy and huggable pandas, but they're far from it. They're capable of just as much cruelty and ferocity as their cousins. It's best to assume there's no difference at all as far as behavior, so do not anger them. Okay, Rene? In a straight up fight, I don't think you'll beat one of these. But they cannot match your speed, so just flee if push comes to shove." she warned Rene. "I'm not saying this because I think you'll mess up and anger them all, it's just in case. Even I cannot easily kill them with my arrows. I could shoot one of them right in the chest, where their heart is, and they will not die due to the toughness of their flesh. Only the very talented should challenge such creatures."
With that being said, Lola marched into the town down the path, following the dirt road that led them into the misty village. The town looked as the bunny village did, buildings crafted of the unique wood that grew in Zippangu territory. It looked nice and simple, creating an inviting feeling. However the material was thin and weak, the wood easily breakable, especially so in the presence of the town's inhabitants, the Ren Xiongmao (or simply Pandas to some). However, the town was in a state of good repair, attributing to the normally calm nature of the Xiongmao. However, one look at their razor sharp claws would make one realize that they could cut through stone like butter. Passive by default, but lethal and ferocious if angered.
The panda women, when Rene and Lola came into their town, didn't seem to pay them too much mind aside from a stare that lasted a second or two. There were various buildings marked with a kanji that Rene would only slightly know because of her proximity to zippangu for so long. There was an inn, a general store, and a mess hall where the pandas seemed to get together to eat. Other than that, the town was very simple. In addition, there were no men in sight. The village seemed devoid of the opposite gender.
