Aulus broke out of his tiny shell and became an adventurer to understand more outside of his small forest home. Fauns tend not to travel or be as outgoing since they are small, frail and tend to get picked off by harpies when they stray too far from home, but with the help of Ruby, a more than capable warrior, Aulus felt like seeing the world was possible.

Ruby is a warrior with a gentle heart, she felt a lot of compassion for little Aulus hearing him talk about seeing the world, a faun with aspirations like that was unheard of and she related quite a bit, being a Snow Leopard who left her home in the mountains many years ago.

They are good friends who have each others backs, although Ruby perhaps covers a little more than Aulus can.
