Sara watched them as the situation unfolded. As Valerian gave forth the options, as Ismael showed not any apparent concern, and yet, set the woman down while he backed up to a tree. Sara only knew so much, but even she could see that there was concern now. Valerian crossed his arms in thought, there was only one thing he knew that could do something like this.

"What I mean is that we're dealing with a fae. It's the only possible conclusion." He stated, Sara looked at him with concern and he gripped her tighter but smiled, before looking at the other two. "Why don't we get a summary of what happened." he suggested.

Sara thought about it for a second, "I saw a plane coming crashing down. I went to it, felt something was off but went to help. Ismael came to help too, we got her out. Right, the plane just seemed to..not be the same color. And the door seemed to be wrong. From there on things were inconsistent, her dress, the trees,-"

"And even when I came here, after having not noticed a plane crash. We still can't find our way out. Even though I know this area like the back of my hand. Nothing changes. What else could do that but a fae? No vampire I've ever heard of has that ability." he explained, "And since I already know Sara, it only makes sense that it's one of you two."

Valerian sighed, "I'd really appreciate it if we didn't have to keep this up."

Ismael listens closely to what Sara saw. It is quite similar to what he saw yet variations here and there, but that is probably because of where they looked. As Valerian stated someone was a Fae, Ismael immediately had the thought in his head, Fae what the hell is that? Based on how they talk about it, it seems to be some kind of nature spirit. 'Hmm, this will require more investigation, but not right now. I need to focus, they might think I'm this Fae'.

Ismael then says as a way to try and deflect incrimination, "I'm not this Faey, I'm a random guy who saw the plane crash and came rushing over. This all started at the plane crash". Ismael wasn't sure what this creature was, but if it had power to morph what they could see, then that mean they could morph the people they see and talk to. He wasn't gonna trust him yet, nor Sara at the moment. Anyone of them could be the Fae, but Ismael knew who has the highest probability. It had to be the girl from the crash, that was the trigger for all of this. All paths lead to her, but If Ismael says a thing about it he could be caught as the liar as the Fae could correct the discrepancies it made. Then he's on the hot seat as a liar trying to deflect blame. God damn it why is this such a simple but effective method?

Sara crept behind Valerian as the situation grew more intense though nothing had truly happened yet. Valerian and her listened as he gave his answer. Sara looked up at Valerian, "He wasn't directly involved in the crash, I think, maybe that helps? I only saw him after I got there."

Valerian would look between the two of them in thought. He hadn't actually seen what had happened. All he knew was what he was being told. And he had to make a decision based off of that. He thought, he considered. So far the woman hadn't moved, and that could be a sign she either did not exist at all and therefor it was Ismael, or she was the fae and just waiting for a moment to speak.

Valerian made a decision, he had to choose one of them right or wrong. He pointed a finger with his guess, "What is it you want so we can get out of this? Sara is pregnant and I don't want her getting too stressed. She's had enough problems with you already."

Ismael sighed in relief as he is not the one targeted by the scrutiny. Thankfully they now can get on with their days, well after they get the answer from this Fae. Hmm at least the know there won't be any of this mystery movie **** anymore as they have figured out the culprit. Or hopefully they did, Ismael still has no clue on who was the actual Fae. He knows the best bet is the girl, or it could be an elaborate ploy. But for now this is his best course to go with. Since Valerain seems to know more on this means he should be the one to talk/negotiate.

Valerian had pointed towards the woman laying on the ground, trying to see how she would react. At first, nothing, she didn't even acknowledge he was speaking. But as he continued to simply point his finger, refusing to back down. The woman eventually opened her eyes and simply laughed at the three of them "Well, of course you would be the one to come to that solution?" she said shaking her head and standing up.

The Semi-deus looked at her and breathed in. This was the first time he'd actually spoken to one, and in all truth, he was just a bit nervous. Sara had pretty much completely disappeared behind his back by this point. Not wanting to get involved in whatever trickery the creature was up to.

"Well whatever I want may be different then what I wanted before you joined our friendly little enterouge." Valerian narrowed his eyes at her uncertainly as she spoke, grinning at the three of them. Because she knew something that Ismael didn't, and she knew it was something that Valerian did not want a regular human to know, "Why don't we let our true selves be known?" she suggested. Then she very swiftly rushed into the forest and seemingly disappeared into the brush. Valerian rushed to chase after her but then grabbed a tree and stopped looking at the two behind him, but especially Sara. Realizing if he did, he couldn't be sure he could make it back. And what was he even going to do if he cought up to her? IF that was even possible?

He turned around and looked between them, refusing to aknowledge that it was he who had a secret, "Alright, out with it. Who knows what she's talking about?" he practically commanded.

Ismael looks at the woman as she opens her eyes. Not gonna lie kinda freaky, even if he knew she was making it up. As she began to laugh, it was simple, nothing sinister behind it just...not nice as she was laughing at them. But hey that pit in his stomach about one of the others being the Fae has finally left.

He listens to them speak, hu what does she want now in comparison to before? As she smiled and said something Ismael never thought he would hate hearing, "Why don't we let our true selves be known?". As she darted into the forest and disappeared. Ismael had a sense of dread fill him. What does she mean by that? Are we just gonna have a heart to heart? Will we need to tell each other about our dark secrets? Or is there something the two of them aren't telling me?

As Velarian nearly commanded them to talk as if they knew something Ismael felt defensive as he says, "Hold on, why should either of us know what she means by true self? All i can think of is us having a heart to heart, yet i don't know why she would want that?". Ismael said was definitely confused yet wasn't gonna run off and get lost because this Fae decided to make this forest become a large circle.

Valerian groaned at Ismaels response and narrowed his eyes before glancing at Sara who just held her arms out and sat down crossing her legs and holding her head in her hands. There was no reason to pretend anything could come from her. She'd have told him if there was, she didn't have a choice on that.

His attention returned to Ismael and his response, "Well someone knows something and I figure Sara probably would have told me if it was from her. So the only person I can assume to be holding a secret is you." he said, "Something unusual? Maybe you're a vampire? Maybe you killed a guy once? Maybe you sew corpses for a living I don't know."

"Aw come on now, surely you know of what I'm speaking. Show them." The fae's voice echoed to them. Valerian was getting the hint absolutely, but he still didn't want to actually admit it. Shadows began to form around him somehow with seemingly sharp edges. He was getting a bit more nervous. But this man wasn't a Siren. He couldn't possibly show him what he was. He just hoped that somehow Ismael had something of his own to hide.

Because if this kept up, he might not have a choice.

Ismael recoiled by the thought of him being anything that Valerian said. 'Maybe you're a vampire?' Nope he just found out what vampires are and they don't really seem to mesh well with him, can't be it. 'Maybe you killed a guy once?' Never killed a soul in his life, he only kills zombies. However the final one was just hurtful, 'Maybe you sew corpses for a living...' This was the one that actually got a response from Ismael as well a face of disgust, "What kind of man do you take me for?".

The Ismael saw this strange shadow start to surround Velarian, as the Fae's voice came back and insinuated Valerian was the one hiding something. Ismael actually felt disgusted that a man would point such heinous accusations at a man he doesn't know just to save his own skin. Ismael scoffs as he says, "So what is it that you're hiding, HU?". Ismael doesn't even care what it is at this point, he just wants to leave this place and get away from this man. It's leaving a bad taste in his mouth.
