As you near the small villiage, wondering why their buildings are built in a style that hasn't been used since the dark ages, you notice a tall figure. He stands just outside the edge of the villiage, on the road, and looks out at you in suprise. He's dressed in a full suit of metal armor... impressive, though worn with age. In his hand is a pike. Once again, all things that have been out of date for a very, very long time.
"Strange travelers," he speaks in a young voice, "what brings you to our villiage at this time of night?" He seems wary, holding his pike firmly, though not yet threateningly.

"Oh... Hi!"
*looks around*
"We are a bit lost! Where are we?"

"Oh for the love of..." Starbright mutters to herself, running her hands through her hair in obvious discontentment.
Despite this, she doesn't say anything aloud, preferring that someone more acclimed to...whatever this all was...take charge.

Because she appears to be the only one talking to him, the guard speaks to Cheshire.
"Lost, indeed... have you been traveling in the same direc-... no, that couldn't be, that would have lead you right through the graveyard."
He pauses, then answers her question.
"This is the villiage of Dorshire."

"Oh... yea.."
*chuckles nervously*
"Yea... the graveyard was... 'fun'..."
*looks around*
"Is there a place for travelers to stay for a night or two? Although... I don't know how much in the way of money we have..."
*looks down and twirls my foot some while waiting for his response*

Mercy apparently decided she was going to speak, because she blurts out "Hey, what year is it?" after a moment.

*Nudges Mercy.*
"I do not think they use the Gregorian Calendar, from the looks of those tombtones."

*looks back at Mercy*
*widens her eyes and tries to wave at Mercy to stop while putting her body inbetween her hands and the guard*

"'Fun,'" he speaks, responding to Cheshire's comment. "So you did pass through it??" His eyes widen. He looks the four of you over once more, and, hearing Mercy's comment, suddenly seems to come to a realization, as if recognizing you for the first time. "You... you are the four warriors! How can it be I didn't see it before!" He lowers his guard, stepping aside and putting his arm out toward the town welcomingly. "Please, follow me.. you must meet the town elder at once. He won't mind waking up for this..."

"Uhhh-what four warriors?"

"The four warriors," he tells Matty excitedly, "fortold in the prophecy! Those who travel from a distant world to save us from the tyranny of the orcs! The prophecy said that although you would appear strange to us, under your alien exteriors would be true heroes!"

Starbright frowns. "This must be that mutant wizard's doing. This has gotta be some sort of trick or something."
