With a slight look of sadness on his face Vanelee looked at Nina and thought to himself 'Child...while your powers may be great great...unawakened but great...I fear the trials we will endure on this trip may be grave. However, it is your decision and you seem able, so I will only smile for now and lend what little help I can in lessening the burden you have placed upon your own shoulders.'
Forgetting his saddened thoughts, Vanelee quickly threw on his typical smile and turned to Dreggan, saying.."Dreggan, if you are gracious enough to share your booty, stolen though it may be, I will gladly accept your assiatance. Thank you. And as for elves never seeing the day when a thief shares, I hope that this is not the last noble deed we see from the likes of you, though I'm sure it's not."
Then turning to a glaring Nina, warm grey eyes twinkling, Vanelee cast her a soothing smile while saying "Thank you for your assistance Nina. I'm most sure that you are quite capable of helping us on our journey, that I am."
These words seemed to lighten the young girl's mood, as she smiled slightly. Vanelee's grey eyes tinkled a little more upon seeing her positive reaction.
"Matt? Are you going to outfit yourself with Dreggan's assitance?"
Vanelee asked turning to the pieous warrior. "Though I must say that I'm not sure what you would require to become outfitted. Your Sechi style of fighting requires no weapons, but you do have quite an appetite. Perhaps some food for the journey?"
