The book of love is long and boring
To Sam's surprise his companions did not rush to attack but to assist, gently guiding the Golem to a place to call home. Once he had taken a moment to catch his metaphorical breath and calm down he stepped out from behind his hiding place, still invisible, and set about clearing rocks and obstacles from the way of the golem and it's guides in case they could cause any kind of problem.

With his Ascended strength it was relatively easy, and he did not consider how strange it would look for everyone to see the rocks seemingly fly away by themselves.

Eventually he remember Remi had called for him and he made his head and fingers visible, waved in his direction with a small smile.

Well this was....not going according to plan.

Are seemed either uncertain of the plan or unwilling to follow it. Luckily though, his actions didn't appear to be impeding their progress. Not yet anyways. Sam's whereabouts still bothered the alchemist, but if Remi couldn't see him that probably meant the golem couldn't either. Likely he'd just run using his superhuman ascended speed. Or so he thought, until he saw a floating coppery head and a hand waving at him. The only thing that Remi could think in that moment was that Sam had bitten someone else. How else would he possess the ability to make parts of his body invisible? Though it wasn't fair at all, Remi found the idea sat unhappily in his mind.

However as Caleb began to nip at the stony heels of the creature, the hawk's mind brandished the thoughts. Weaving and bobbing around hands that tried to grab for him, Remi tried to lead the creature down the path Sam was making. However distracted by Are's pillar, the golem diverted from their course and instead made a bee-line for the cobbler.

Are
Tentative pokes and jabs seemed to have done just the trick to piss off the creature enough for Are to have its undivided attention for a few moments. For good and bad. His plan kinda ended as he'd gotten to his endgame and the question of 'now what?' burned in his mind.

Fight? Flee!

With a mighty heave the cobbler chucked the beam at the fast approaching stone creature, whatever means he had to slow it downed would have to do as Are tried to escape the crushing fists down the peculiarly clear path.

Sam was Sam. This meant he was by no means a brave man ready to run over and strike the Golem. However, being invisible and around many heavy rocks did give him a slight advantage; he reached down to grab one of the stones he'd tossed out of the way and then tossed it as hard as he could towards the creature, hoping to strike it's side.

   He didn’t understand what was happening. Everything was going well, until the golem changed course. Damnit.

   The cobbler’s beam was thrown and a rogue rock seemed to fly towards the creature, so Caleb simply ran from behind the golem towards Are. Seemed the cobbler was the one being targeted this time, and the shepherd’s protective instincts overtook his want to give compassion.

   He snarled, his hackles bristled and sharp canines bared at the creature, positioning himself between Are and the golem. Smartest move? Probably not, but it was instinct!

Caleb seemed to be the only one who had picked up on Remi's plan...though given that neither Are nor Sam could hear him, it was perhaps unfair to think of them as actively obfuscating what he was trying to do.

With a trill of alarm, the hawk darted from the skies, hastily making his way towards the ground and shifting awkwardly as he did so. "No! Lead it away! We can bring it to another house where it can—" A wince cut off his words as Are 's beam struck the creature squarely between the eyes. Staggering slightly it wobbled on suddenly unsteady feet as it was hit again by a rock thrown by Samuel.

Grinding his teeth together the alchemist watched the scene. No strategist was he, he had no idea what to do; to take down the creature, or to try and continue to lead it away?

With a groan, shaking its head, the golem fixed its sights on the shepherd as it barked defensively in front of the cobbler. With unsteady balance, the golem began to dash towards the dog, large fingers clenching and unclenching as it tried to catch the annoying tri-coloured creature.

Are
Blessed by a small respite, the cobbler finally took in the shouted orders and realized what the working plan was. Although it was just as quickly disregarded as the creature showed signs of waning fighting will.

A quick glance was rewarded with more things to chuck at the beast as Are began hurling loose cobble stones and whatever hefty trash he could get his hands on while still avoiding being broken like a twig by the swinging fists.

A thought arose in his mind as he mindlessly pummeled the golem before them. The escape plan married to Remi's orders and affirmed by another quick glance, this time towards the house he had been retreating towards. With it in mind he kept up his assault, but readied himself to bolt should he again be set upon by their enemy.

   Well, his plan worked...for the most part. Just not exactly as he had expected it to.

   The golem turned its sights on Caleb, and the shepherd’s ears laid back. He darted away from Are and ran around the golem, and oddly enough, there was a slight wag to his tail and his ears were forward once again.

   He barked at the golem twice and ran again, hoping to keep it interested enough in him to follow the dog towards the door. Maybe he would manage to get it out that way?

Sam gritted his teeth as he heard Remi's yell, too late as he had already thrown the stone. It did strike, but did not seem to do much, the creature still continuing pretty much fine afterwards. It seemed people still were trying to lead it in a certain direction after all...something Sam had little idea of how to help with. He could get behind it and pushed he thought, hope it would not realise he was there, but that felt risky.

With no idea of what to do he ran over to Remi, made his top half visible. "Is there something I can do?"

Large and stupid, the golem was seemingly confused by which target to follow: the rather playful seeming canine or the largish man aggravatingly tossing things in its direction. Finding the rocks more of a nuisance, the creature seemed to settle on the shepherd, turning around in a large and uncoordinated circle as it tried to follow the dog's movements. It said something which might have been puppy as its large feet slammed into the cobblestone of the square, following Caleb out.

"Yes!" Remi cried encouragingly before flinching at the sudden and strange half-appearance of Sam near him. "The house that Caleb is leading it to...could you open the door so that it has somewhere to go into?"

With a glancing towards Are, Remi trotted after the lumbering creature being led by Caleb. "Sam will open the door—Are, can you close it behind the golem once Caleb leads it inside and then comes back out?"



no posting order. Sage has had to take a break, so it's just the two of you: Are and Samuel

Sam was glad to be given an instruction, feeling less like a spare part already even if his task was simply holding a door. Immediately he rushed to it, going to swing the door open then stand inside with it held, standing as far back behind it as he could to avoid the crushing feet of the golem.

As the golem would come in, Sam would sneak out the side, invisible and unseen, then appear again next to Remi, smiling at the hopeful end of their rather sudden confrontation with the monster.

Are
"Aye!" the cobbler shouted and followed the lumbering beast, keeping a good distance back. He'd been close enough to death once already and found no need to further tempt fate, he had already a date with it in due time.

He went through the plan, if one could call it that, once again in his mind. A clear task, just slam the door shut and pray to every single god that the golem had better things to to than to turn and tear it all down. Like a wrestler circling his opponent, Are shuffled closer and closer to the target, body like a drawn bow, ready to spring into action, or bid a hasty retreat.

Clever was not a word usually used to describe a golem, and with the help of the cobbler, the invisible bookmaker, the barker shepherd and the alchemist, the group was indeed able to lure the stony creature into the abandoned house. As Sam closed the door deftly behind it, Remi gave a sigh of relief, shooting the copper-haired man a grin. "Well done Sam!" He said, all dimples and white smile.

Looking towards Are, Remi heaved a sigh of relief, his grin turning crooked as he nodded appreciatively to the older man. "I fear that might not have gone so smoothly without you Are. Thank you."

With a glance toward Caleb, Remi shot a pulse of mental approval and appreciation into his mind before the shepherd wandered off down the street.

"Well, with that taken care of I suppose the proper clean up can begin. In the next day or so you both are welcome to bring whatever you would like to have on offer. I will also clear out the house so that we can use it as a meeting place as well as a sort of...ahhh...lab, of sorts. To test things and whatnot."

Bashful but excited, the alchemist took a breath and nodded.

The Artisan's Guild had begun.



Fin! Thanks friends!
