Ursarius could see them from a long ways off, tucked under the trees of the Forest. 'Urstrid Beat me here? so that's where she ran off to... Unruly cub...' Ursa let herself fall to all fours, lumbering along like a big barrel of black fur. 'I wonder what they are talking about..' She closed the distance between them, she knew that Drogax could see her by now, but the Queen was confused at the sight of the Thornwall. '...what is that Druid Planning...?'

"What is it that interests you? There are many different sides of politics, for example you have the Barbarians of Katan who seem to think that all conflict can be solved with a blade. I hope you see how that line of thinking is flawed." Drogax began to put everything back in his bag as Urstrid seemed to show interest in what was being said. "Ursarius, welcome to the clearing." Drogax stood at the sight of the daunting Dauntless in the same action he returned the thornwall to the earth. "Have you come to a decision?" Drogax was never a very patient man.

Ursa slowed to a stop and Shifted into her Human form, to make more room for her under the low hanging trees. "Greetings Drogax." She smiled faintly, but it was clear that the mother Bear was stressed, In human form, her emotions were even easier to see. She frown at Urstrid and shook her head at the Cub is disappointment. "Urstrid, You have angered me, and your actions today shame me as a Mother. I cannot stand for this. All your life you'd rather get into trouble than to listen to me, and look where it's gotten you... Dead, at the hands of dim-witted barbarians! Why must you make it so hard to mother you?" Quickly she turned her head back to drogax, her long black hair whipping around and framing her face, hanging over the shoulders. The Last of the Sunset glinting on her Silver Crown... she looked Drogax in the eyes and took a deep breath, preparing herself to speak.
She knew she wasn't making the right decision by doing this, but she was running out of Options. "Yes. I have decided, as I promised, I am here to deliver my Answer."

The desire to protect Urstrid was strong however Drogax knew that one should never get between a mother bear and it's child; it would surely be the end of him. "I am happy to hear that you have made a choice. Here take this, it should help release the tension in your muscles." He spoke handing Ursarius a small concoction from his bag. Drogax had been waiting most of the day just for this answer, as the sky had finally turned a dark blue and the first stars became visible he was happy that Ursa had arrived on time. "I am curious as to what happened to bring the child here, and why she wishes not to speak of Katan, but that is something we can discuss later." Waving his hand, gazing down at the short stature of the bear-now-human.

She looked at Urstrid and then at Drogax, It was clear what she had to do, even if it wasn't exactly what she wanted. Drogax was right... She had lost nearly everything that she ever held dear to her. And at this point, all she had left was her Rebellious Daughter and her People. At least one of those things could be saved with the acceptance of Marriage. She had tried everything to help Urstrid. Tried being nice, and gentle, tried being strict... she even tried force and being mean. She tried following her, tried leaving her alone, and nothing worked. She thought about Kadain, and how it would break his heart to leave him. And she thought about Genet... the poor man had just found hope. but all of that changed and now she stood in front of Drogax and gave him the best smile she could manage.
"Yes. Drogax Fen, Son of the Mountainmen. I have decided to go with you back to the mountain. We will unite our people." She bowed her head to him, and glanced at Urstrid. Her ever-growing cub. "You may stay or come with us if you choose. If you want nothing to do with your Kingdom, Genet and Kadain will look after you, if not, Ashen and the Silver Scale will always accept a new child into their home. The Choice is yours."
The Human Ursa walked over to Drogax and met eyes with him.

((OoC: sorry for the delay, was caught up with life and stuff.))
Drogax looked from Ursa over to Ustrid after hearing her answer and the child's reaction. "Ustrid, child, you're always welcome in the village, come be with us. Should you choose to stay, I promise we will return." Drogax walked up to Ustrid setting his hand on her shoulder, then looked back to Ursa. "I feel this is the best choice for both of us, it's been a long time coming that the Dauntless and Fen unite. After we finish what must be done at the mointain we shall return to aid those you still call friends, and we will have numbers."
Drogax waved his staff towards the trees muttering some incantation and the trees bent to show a path. "Our journey awaits." Drogax motioned to the path that now laid open before them all. "Urstrid, I ask you, please join us.

Ursa's face was blank, any of the emotions inside of her were hidden well. She listened to what Drogax said, and she believed him, though somewhere in her heart she knew it was wrong. She had nothing left, and no other choice. He was right. And it was the best option. "Urstrid. if you ever wish to gain my trust back, You had better give it your all, Do as Drogax says and come home to the Mountain. if you misbehave there, the Ursanids will rip you to shreds until you learn to listen. Only then will you have a chance in this world." She smiled weakly at drogax as he opened the path. Stepping ahead of him, she stalled. "You will always be my daughter by Blood, You are only dauntless by your Actions."
Hanging her head, she stepped past the void.

Drogax followed them both out of the clearing closing the path behind them, it was impossible to track them past this point now.
As they travelled towards the mountain Drogax looked down to the cub, the back to Ursa and spoke. "I have gathered the village, they await our return, then we will take a small group of us up the mountain." He smilled and walked quietly behind them silently hoping only for the best.
