--- Niara had a smile on her face all along while following the orders and not really paying attention to the others as she was exited for the adventure. Although she did notice how Saline looked at both herself and Low, she ignored it not to ruin the fun in this. She looked like a little filly on her birthday as she wanted to just get to the cave already. She trotted over to Spirit, walking beside her. "Do you explore caves often?" she asked, wanting to know more about their guide. She herself didn't really go on adventures, but she was used to trips with great distance and weren't one to stop first for a break. She looked at Low for a short moment over her shoulder and gave him a smile to see if he where okay before she turned back to Spirit.

Feeling Spirit flee like a startled wild animal and tell her to burn and suffer she sat there yawning a bit at her "Oh my Spirit way to show you are fully capable of leading a dangerous mission into an uncharted cave you found." she said as she licked along her lips a bit "Mmm I am sorta hungry for breakfast now thanks." she looked over at Niara and bowed her head to her "Ello there..my name is Midnight Mind or Sueño Nocturno pleasure to meet you and the zebra. I know Key very well...and Spirit."

Saline notes Midnight, interested in just how well sh-he started to piece it together, and blinks. He follows Spirit, though he seems a little more relaxed. Once a few minutes pass, he looks to Midnight, and says, "Pleasure to meet you, my name is Saline, if your name's true." He then cocks his head over to Spirit, "What is in this cave we're seeking? I'm hoping for gems, but that's me speaking." He needed those gems for a simple purpose.
He needs those to make the fancier of potions. Technically, the bottle to store them in, lest they melt through the innapropriate bottle. He also does love his garnets and amethysts for their beauty.

Midnight was here, too? Welp, if that just wasn't the icing on the triple-layered shit cake...
Low nods to her, "Midnight? A coincidence meeting you here." Despite saying what was supposed to be said in an incredulous tone, Low's voice instead hinted that he was somehow not surprised. After all, she did say that she had intended to watch over the two of them, so he honestly wasn't shocked that she was stalking them. He only thought that she would be more subtle about it.
At least partially, Low Key was relieved that Midnight was here. He'd sleep better at night knowing that somepony with powerful magic was watching over all of them. Sure, Spirit was probably a better fighter than she was a thinker, but having TWO powerful mages leading the group certainly made him feel much safer.

Well. There was... quite a bit of interpony interaction here, wasn't there? This was going to become an drama filled adventure, wasn't it? Heh, Spirit had stayed out of any sort of vortexes of it, for this long. Let's see if she could find the eye of the storm and stay there for this time.
So, she did that by ignoring it and answering Niara's question, "Yes, actually, I've explored caves and the like for a few years before this. Before starting up and settling down out here, I was an adventurer. I'd go through ruins and stuff to find relics and artifacts for selling."
"Just kind of figured I'd probably hold expeditions like this every now and again for anypony that actually wanted to come along. Though, I'm rather surprised that it was such a large number."

--- Niara nodded at Spirits answer and turned to Midnight with a smile. "I'm Niara, nice to meet you!" she said and smiled, she remembered Low had mentioned her in the dramatical meeting with Saline and Zeila in the park. She ignored the fact and acted as she didn't know about it, she didn't want to bring it up now as she was having fun already. "So you like adventures too?" she asked her to have something to talk about.

Saline doesn't ask her anything, knowing how she's already being bombarded with questions. He instead starts to unbutton his cloak, and takes it off. He starts to un-dust it, revealing his back, which looks...odd. Not a lot of ponies see his back uncovered, so it almost seems indecent of him to not have it on. He puts it back on, but, before it settles it reveals a wall of writing on the underside of his cloak. It'd couldn't be fully discerned in the quick motion, but it appears to have recipes and…diary entries.
He looks to Spirit, "How goes your runic magic? I assume you've advanced far, which should make this trip get done in a click."

Spirit could tell already that she was going to get along rather well with Niara. She seemed to be having fun, and she seemed to be ignroing, or attempting to defuse the tension in the air. Probably the best that she could do in the situation, given it seemed she had yet to be part of the problems between anypony else here. She nodded and turned her head to Saline, responding with a smile on her face, "Well, I haven't really advanced much, recently, to be honest. It's rather difficult to learn any more when you've pretty much taught yourself all you could with the knowledge granted."

Looking at Niara she smiled a bit "Oh nothing beats a good adventure. I actually came by thinking Spirit would of been alone for this." she tilted her head a bit "I was gonna surprise her and here she surprised me with all of you." she looked at Saline and nodded at him "I see well we should find some gems in the cave I am sure."
Looking at Key she smiled "Ello Key..you seem a bit quiet." she moved over towards him "I gotta say something to you before we begin."

//Before this gets any farther, I feel like a posting order needs to be set up. It's already starting to get jumbled up. Sorry this is so clumsy, never done well with big groups....
Oh, and this hasn't been done, yet, but before it gets to be a problem, I already have a pretty solid set up idea for this dungeon crawl, so please don't try and take the reigns from me. I'll sort of be playing as the DM, so... yeah c:
Without further ado...
>Spirit
>Saline
>Low Key
>Niara
>Midnight
Seeing as I and Saline just posted, though, I say we jump to Low Key, next. Any qualms?

For the time being, Low Key had been content to sit on the sidelines, being his name. As he hears Midnight call him he jerks up and looks up at her, "Oh! Well, I, uh, didn't have any questions."
As Midnight approaches him, he cocks his head, "Um, okay. What is it?"
(( Just saw the post order setup, looks good! ))

((Sounds good! I haven't thought about a setup like that before, but I'm sure it'll make things a bit better to keep up and stuff. Sorry if I'm a bit late, I have been on a dance camp for the weekend)
--- Niara noticed that Midnight and Low was going to talk about something that most likely weren't of her business. Slowly she moved a bit away to not seem like she was listening to them, she moved closer to Spirit and smiled softly as she approached her. "Sorry if I'm asking a lot of questions but, how did you get into adventuring? Have you always liked it as much as now?" she asked, her curiosity showing in her eyes.

She smiled at Niara and went up next to him whispering into his ear so only he could hear "She is a lovely looking mare, and her soul is as well. Treat her well." as she turned around fast she looked at the group "Well it seems you got a nice group of cannon fodder here." she teased Spirit before looking around "Shall we begin?"

Spirit smiled and nodded as Niara came up to her. It wasn't often that ponies asked for why she adventured in the first place. And, really, she loved the looks on their faces when she gave her rather lackluster response, "I read a lot as a filly. Stories of adventures and demon hunters really just... entranced me. I kind of decided to live out my own adventures. And... well... it worked."
She was about to say something else, until Midnight's words danced into her ears, and she spun about and barked, "Hey! They are not 'cannon fodder!' That's my job! If anypony is going to get to bash in the monsters, it's gonna be me! But, without further ado, let's go! We should arrive at the cave in five or so minutes! If I remember where to go!" She said the last, not even missing a beat at all.
Wow, it was a bad idea to follow this kid into the forest, wasn't it?

Saline chuckles at her remarks, imagining the group running into a tree while in a straight line. He looks towards the forest, and the mountains. What would they face in those blue mountains, and in the darkness below? He looks over to Spirit, "Shall we make designated roles for everyone, or will it be compensated when it's needing to be done?" He asks, realizing that...they have no role past 'survive the ordeal.'
He looks upon himself, realizing that he'd be the muscle of the group, at least, by his thoughts. Spirit seems to wield incredible, if not controversial, power. Low...he can't think of a role for him. He can imagine Niara using...spices to blind their foes? He just hopes they're all competant enough to survive this.
