A Hunting in the woods.

Characters: Thorin and OPEN.
Setting: Floor Thirty Two
When: April 13th
Format: Prose
Summary: Thorin is fed up of health bars and the canteen doesn't offer up much for a dwarf king so he is taking to hunting on Floor Thirty Two. He will be looking to gather food and hunt an animal or two. If he can find one.
Warnings: Violence possible gore during hunting.

Thorin had managed to navigate by using the elevator for the first time. The elf, Legolas, had shown him how to work it. For that, he was grateful. His prejudice against the blond elf was rapidly diminishing, due to how helpful he had been. Adjusting his sword on his belt he wanted to see what Floor Thirty Two had to offer. After being told it contained flora and fauna, he couldn't resist a possible hunting trip.

The yearn to hunt and be outside had overpowered Thorin's senses. He was a dwarf. A warrior and hunter. Not some animal within a cage. Feeling the wind on his face as he passed through the doors into the natural landscape, he sighed.

This was worth the long ride on the elevator. He set about gathering wood and sticks to build a fire. He needed heat first then he could set about gathering his prey. Also, the fire would act as a beacon if he became lost within the woodland. Who knows what else could leap out and attack him. He snapped some large twigs in half and set about building his fire. Looking behind and around him, Thorin wondered who else inhabited this area.

A huge, armored figure reeking of fresh animal kills is hunched near the fire. When he got there is a bit unclear. Has the silent wolf been watching Thorin for sometime?

It is impossible to tell. But a being almost as big as a troll, though made of metal instead of stone, is definitely watching over the Dwarf King.

"Because you interest me, of course."

He says, in a voice too deep to be human, but filtered to metallic by the interference of the helm. It comes out strangely muffled, as though the functionality of his armor has been altered somehow. Loken knows why, of course, the voxcaster is broken, but to Thorin it just sounds like someone talking from underneath a pillow.

"Yes. I have not seen your kind in years, and I didn't want to startle you. You looked... cautious."

And Cerberus is a hugenormous terror of metal and flesh, after all.

The giant reaches up, unhooking his helm, and exposing a face that could wellhave been carved from rock, all hard planes with the scarring of several lifetimes of battle clear to see. Some of the most recent scars, little burns and cuts, are still a bit pink.

"I'm probably not. My name is Cerberus, and I am of the Legiones Astartes."

"A king? Interesting. I have met many dynasts in my life, though few hunting in a strange prison. I take it you do not rule this place?"

"Know no fear. We shall break free in time."

His hard face has the determined cast of a man who has never surrendered. Ever.
