He raises an eyebrow. Sure, foxes had dens, but... No way they were this large... He steps up next to the mouth of the cave, peering inside to get a good look at it without exposing himself.
He frowns a little, and decides to go through it. He didn't have much of a choice. He gently pushes Tamani to make her go ahead of him, mostly because if something was waiting on the other side, it would get her first and give him a chance to retaliate.
"I wasn't exactly trained to please women. You should have at least waited to see what you were dealing with. That's what I would have done anyway." Lazarus says, continuing to follow the tracks.
As soon as he stepped out of the cave, Lazarus was taken back by the sight before him. Unlike the rest of the forest, this area seemed to be cared for by people. Neatly cut trails wound through the undergrowth, well cared for fences lined the trails were they came close to small hills, and wooden bridges spanned the small brooks here and there. Off in the distance he could see a huge mansion built in a style he didn't recognize.
[Gonna' need time to cook up the next part.]

Confused, he looks around, taking in the details for a while before focusing on the mansion. Maybe there were people in there... He sets off towards the mansion.
"Tamani. Stay." He says, sliding off without a sound, blending into the forest, searching for the exact source of the sound and trying to pick up what they're saying.

Lazarus slipped off the trail and into the underbrush as he made his way around the building. Once he rounded the corner, he was treated to a most alluring sight. Behind the building was a large natural hot spring. Inside it lounged three strikingly beautiful, long haired, women. One was blond and possessed a generous curves, another with raven locks was tall and slim, and the third, a red head, possessed a more athletic build. All of them, however, had large fluffy canine ears atop their heads, and a number of large bushy fox tails trailing behind them.

Lazarus raises an eyebrow. What the heck were these things...? Well... They looked harmless enough... Maybe he should go up and ask. His staff in hand, he walks up to the spring, calling out a greeting. He acts relaxed, but his nerves are on end, waiting for the slightest strange movement.
"Eeek!" cried the blond as she tried to cover her prodigious breasts with her hands.
"What the-" the raven haired woman exclaimed as she slipped beneath the water.
"Who the heck are you," demanded the red head, standing up. Now that most of her was out of the water, Lazarus could see a flaccid penis hanging above her womanhood.

"Someone relatively harmless, should you remain the same." He says with a cold smile. "There was a white fox that ran this way. It had something of mine. A locket. Seen it, by any chance?"
"Look, buddy, I don't know who you think you are, but-" the red head began, before she was cut off.
"Mamma, look what I managed to get!" The back door of the mansion, slid open and there stood a young girl, still in her teens, with flowing white hair, and similarly colored ears and tails. Around her neck was Lazarus's locket. The only thing covering her was a small towel.

Lazarus clears his throat loudly. "That's mine, kid. I just want it back. It's important." He says, smiling at her.
"Er... She stole that locket." He says, his arms crossed over his chest, a slight smile playing at his lips. Not that they could see it anyway. This kid reminded him a bit of himself when he was young...
"The fact that I know she had it says enough. Oh, and there's a picture in there of a girl named Elizabeth. You should probably take a look. I'm supposed to find her." He says coolly, looking her straight in the eyes to show he isn't lying.
"Give it here, Nami," the red head said, sternly. The young girl let out a huff and handed the locket over. The red haired fox looked inside the locket for a moment, before turning back to the girl. "Go to you room, I'll be up to speak to you later."
"Aw, man!" groaned the youngster, before turning and heading back into the house.
Once she was gone the red head walked over to Lazarus and handed the locket back to him. "I must apologize for her, she knows better than to get caught stealing," she offered. To Lazarus's surprise, the woman made no effort to cover herself.

"Well, I'm not the easiest person to steal from." He chuckles. He holds the locket for a few seconds. "Hey. Go easy on the kid." He bows his head a bit. "Reminds me of myself when I was young. Oh, and if I may ask, what exactly are you?"
"No, I haven't seen a kitsune before. Thought they just existed in legends. Also, they eat men, if I recall correctly. As for the dick..." He looks down. "For some reason, not bothering me as much as it would a normal person. I've seen weird shit in my life. This is somewhere near the bottom of the list." He says.
"Believe me, I've seen weirder shit. A cute fox girl with a dick hardly compares." You say shaking your head.
He bows to each in turn. "Lazarus. Lazarus Runefang. Never had a last name." He says, tapping the mask.
"It would be rude to say no." He walks over to an empty spot and strips, folding his gear and setting it down behind him, the staff in easy reach, before getting into the warm water. Mm. It had been quite a long while since he'd gotten into a hot spring.
