"Dreggan!" Vanelee called, seeing his friend return to the hall as he raised his head up from the table, leading the small girl to sit on the bench with Matt and him. "How nice of you to join us once again, and don't worry we're weren't doing what you thought we were. We have discovered an ever kind young miss amongst us."
Following his greeting, Vanelee leaned back to allow Dreggan a view of his guest. The young girl was thoroughly enjoying her food, and stopped upon being introduced. Realizing her new surroundings, she tried to escape underneath the table again, but this time she was held back by Matt and Vanelee who gently grasped her arms.
"You need not fear young miss." said Vanelee looking down at the girl with his warm grey eyes and smiling. "Please sit and join us for the feast. We are all worthy warriors, and no harm shall come upon you. Especially while you sit with us, for these two warriors next to me are among the strongest that I have seen, and while I can't say that I am at their level, I know that if things get rough we will all fight."
However, Vanelee sensed something different about the girl, a hidden power perhaps. He also sensed that she had been taking care of herself for quite sometime anyways, and a few more troublemakers would be no more problem.
"So sit and eat...um..." Vanelee halted because he didn't know the young girl's name, and did not want to offend her by addressing her incorrectly.
"Um, young miss, may I ask your name, so that I may know how to address my new friend?" Vanelee asked timidly, not wanting to come on to strongly.
He sat staring at the girl, smiling broadly and eyes twinkling, awaiting her reply.
