Aurea sighed as she listened to Kara, exasperated. It was as if the girl was on a totally different mission than them. They were moving deeper into the forest where people might be. Honestly Aurea was sure that while a lot of pokemon had moved on there were likely others that hadn't. After all Beedril could largely subsist off of honey from flowers. Kakuna built up energy as Weedil to the point where they didn't eat at all and Weedil could survive off of just about anything. Just because they were being careful didn't mean that they weren't taking the mission seriously. While normally Aurea could appreciate a gung ho attitude it was times like these and her last mission that she found that if people weren't doing something big or worthwhile at every second of the hour they seemed to think it was time wasted.

Seeing Kara start to trek off on her own Aurea rubbed her temples and grabbed the girl by the scruff of her shirt to stop her before she went to far.

"Whoa there miss Emolga. Impatience is the worst thing you could have on a misson like this. If you want to go off the path make sure to let the group know and ask them to follow before you decide that the group should follow you just because you decide to trot off by yourself. The last mission I was on started to go belly up when another person did just the same action as you were about to do. I rather avoid history repeating itself so lets try to actually have some sort of group cohesion. Now then, Ciaran is going by an overhead route but he is still staying with the group and keeping us in sight. So he'll be our eyes. Now then a lot of the vegitation has been stripped here. However we should still proceed with caution. After all berries aren't the only thing pokemon can eat. Come on guys. Lets head into the woods a  little. See if you guys can identify any sort of tracks. Any canine like pokemon would be appreciated as well. They might be able to pick up on the scent of humans."

With the group informed of a plan, that was open to critique, Aurea turned towards her pokemon.

"Gekimaru I want to to head into the trees with Ciaran. Help him to spot anything unusual. I think you'll work well with him. Herc, I want you to see if you can find any concentrations of sap. If there are people here they might have cut open a couple of trees to get at the sap inside to feed themselves."

Her pokemon both saluted to her as they went off on their assignments. After they did so Aurea released her Absol, Lady Luck, to sniff around and try to see if she could find the scent of any humans. She herself checked the ground studiously for any sort of footprints or tracks.
