She definitely took a wrong turn, but she couldn’t find her way back. The forest was so unbelievably thick, it was difficult to navigate! When she heard the voice, she turned her head to locate the voice. 「——Actually, I’m just lost. I’m tryna find a place to settle down so I’ve been travelling for a couple ah years now.」Carmines set ‘pon a nearby Honchkrow, from which the voice had been heard. 「——Oh, so you’re the mysterious voice huh? I’m doing good, thanks for asking!」It was quite odd, a lone Honchkrow. Didn’t they normally nest in flocks? Or were those Murkrows she was thinking of? Who knew. All she knew is that it was a little odd for the bird to be gazing ‘pon her. Nonetheless, she graced him with a smile, one which normally showed a sign of friendliness.
They were always lost. No matter who they were or what they did, they always found themselves lost on his property. However, instead of feeling intense malice burn with more intensity with each find, he felt content knowing that more individuals were stumbling up him. In his crimson eyes, more creatures meant more pawns, and more pawns would only lead him to an even higher status than he already was know.

Despite being in his lonesome, that didn't mean he was any less of a threat if provoked or if he found the other useless in the slightest. Aristide may have tainted himself with stylish crests and lusciously groomed feathers, but he found it more than exciting to deal with 'commoners' personally.
"Lost?" He questioned, voice coated with a false tone of compassion. "Lucky for you, you stumbled upon the most pleasant fellow in this area. Name's Aristide, proud leader of this route ever since my parents went to their graves. Allow me to stroll with you and get to know you. I have a feeling that we're going to have one successful relationship."
