Out of the door she guides Gr'n through the backstreets to a relatively peaceful part of town making smalltalk on the way.
"So tell me master hunter, how much does a g'rrr eat on the road?"
Gr'n grins in response to Friga's question. "As much as a g'rrr can catch on the road of course."
After picking up the basic supplies, he notices a dreamcatcher and adds it to the mix. Time to go find the others at the animal trader, it would not do to have another pick up his own. Something small.. not a miniature giant space hamster, they're a scam. Aha! A small-sized sabertooth! Gr'n always wanted one of those. He slowly moves his fingers towards the feline's head and retracts as the trap of teeth snaps shut. By which time, his other hand is resting on its head. The cat tries to lacerate the invasive hand to find its tail pulled.
"Hahaha, I like him!"
He pulls a little piece of jerky from his backpack and keeps it above the cat's head. As expected, the cat is not above refusing food. He hands Elwolid the dreamcatcher.
"This one's on me."

The man with the worn armor, who went by the name of Morn Wild-Eyes, had been buying a new saddle pouch from the beast vendor, when he noted a G'rrr looking to make friends with a sabercat.
- Fancy a predator for a steed, eh friend? - Morn asked the G'rrr. Morn's own mount was a dire-wolf, which was left in the stables nearby. He found it to be much less troublesome than a horse, despite nearly being the size of one, and much more reliable than other beasts.

'Easier to identify with one. But a practical choice too.'
Before the first sentence is over, Gr'n has looked the stranger up and down. The lizard would normally not want his share reduced but he would rather have a reliable warrior in that team of weirdos. Something seemed off about every single one of them and survival takes priority over shares.
'That's a big dire Wolf, must take a lot to feed it. '

- It's quite the contrary actually. - Morn replied. - Shade here, - He patted the head of his Dire-Wolf.- Doesn't require a copious amount of feed to sustain himself. It's kind have been bred specifically to endure long travels on small rations, thus it's not such a heavy burden to feed it. Usually it takes about a few quarts worth of feed a day. And it's not a picky eater, at worst it'll be satisfied with some oatmeal mixed with lard, or a single large bone. And we usually share what we catch. - One could see some hunting equipment stashed on the back of the wolf, behind the saddle. The kit consisted of a composite bow and a quiver of arrows to go with it, as well as several traps and a lenght of hemp rope for making snares.
- By the way, I am called Morn. Morn Wild-Eyes - The man extended his hand to the G'rrr for a handshake.

Firm handshake, rough hands. Friendlier than expected?
'I can see why, you look at the world through unusual eyes. Seen anything interesting lately?'
Gr'n casts a sidelong glance to Friga.

- Nothing too out of the order except a few select large bands of sellswords marching to the Commune for whatever reason.Also I did heard, and I'm sure you did too, that one particular silver mine had "dried up" all of a sudden. - Morn said. -There's not much else noteworthy that I had seen.

Friga sneaks off as a really big man wearing a gaudy, bright red pointed hat approaches them with a friendly smile on his face.
"I see you have noticed her, she's a fine one indeed. Will make a perfect companion for a G'rrr hunter with her great hearing. She can even keep you warm at night if you happen to travel into the colder parts.", he offers his hand enthusiasticly.
"The name is Jahan, I am the master of these fine people.", he spreads his hands around indicating all the different creatures gathered. Then he nonchalanty grabs the sabertooth by the neck and lifts it into his arms like a baby.
"What do you say Gertha, would you like to go with the good uncle? He is a hunter so you'll get a lot of fresh meat.", he strokes the back of her head and she purrs in response.
"She likes you, my children always know whom to trust, that they do.", then he hands Gertha over to Gr'n without any thought to her being really heavy for him to hold. She quickly finds that the scales make an excellent hold for her claws and starts trying to pull herself up on his back.
"Now then, what might Jahan do for you others? I've got the most trustworthy pair of giant sloths. Just perfect for those who might worry where their companions are off to when they sleep. No worries, these fellas won't be far!"

G'sh'rr sizes up Jahan and steps out of the shadow. He didn't quite know what to think of these misfit vagabonds and ne'er-do-wells, but he decided he could go along for the journey. It was the best lead he got for a heroic deed, even if he was going to go along with decidedly unheroic company. maybe stopping these unheroic sorts from doing evil would turn out to be heroic all the same?
This Frida seemed to know something we didn't and all too trusting of random people on the street.
"My good man, it has come to my understanding that you are a true master of animal handling and a connoisseur of the selling of noble creatures. I require an animal that can carry a heavy burden but is also not unbefitting to a noble warrior. Which would you recommend me, master tradesman?" G'sh'rr asked. G'sh'rr very briefly wondered at the prospect of eviscerating this vulgar commoner. How can a noblemen such as he be expected to do business with the likes of him? But he decided that he would get to keep his innards for another day.

"A warrior you say? I know just the guy. If you'd follow me please." He starts leading the group through the different animals and over to the field. While walking a Sh'ks fully clad in armour clampers over to them.
"Ah, good, Sh'st, magnificent timing. I am taking these people over to the woods so if you'd look after here that would be great."
There is a loud clinking as the man bows. "At once, master." He jogs away. Jahan's face clears as he is already running away. "Oh and, remember to feed the wyverns!" He shouts after the Sh'ks. "Yes master!"
After dodging through herds of all manners of beats, both foreign and common, the group quickly arrives at the edge of the woods not far away. As the group arrives a large head pops out from above the treeline, 30 feet above ground. Jahan waves at the big animal, which answers by raising itself upright, it's neck extended, now 15 feet over the treeline. Content in having identified the approaching people it plants its front feet back on the ground. The shockwave is easily felt under the feet.
"That's Tiny. She's my little sweetheart. Can you imagine she was only a meter tall when she got here? Oh how time flies." Suddenly he snaps from his reminiscence. "Right, a most fitting one for the master warrior." He turns to the forest again and whistles. All manner of sounds created by breaking branches and thundering hooves starts approaching the group from the woods. Something big is coming, albeit not as big as the one from before. First thing that pops out of the green is a big horn, followed by an even larger head at the end of a moderately long neck and a body twice the height of a man. A body that keeps running straight at them at full speed. Showing no signs of stopping the thundering hooves keep speeding it straight at them. 50 paces away one can tell it actually resembles more of a rhino than a horse, just more agile, or perhaps it was somewhere between the two. Only 20 paces away it seems to notice them and frantically starts slowing down. A cloud of dust and debris flies over them and the beast manages to stop just barely before crushing them all. Happily it brought it's head down for Jahan to pet.
"This one is Care. He's an unicorn as you can tell. Great hearing, excellent smell. Will easily carry what you need on a journey. He's very loyal as well, just call and he'll come running straight away."

Gr'n makes a whistling sound with obvious amusement in his eyes.
'To trample your enemies or ram them through, what a decision to make! But would Tiny even fit through the mine entrance?'

But before the party can accomplish anything else, a huge shadow descends on them, "Ack!, a red dragon!" Gr'n shouts as the menacing behemoth swoops upon him, hot flames coming from its wide-open jaws.
