Seeing that Krazixs and Vinoh are attending to the stricken Sexodus, and that Kentelos is busy disposing of their fallen former companion, D'Aleen focuses on the conversation between her beloved and the stranger. Feeling reassured at the newcomers words she softly walks forward and stands by Thantos side. Smiling gently she reaches out her hand and looks into James' eyes.
"I am D'Aleen. We are glad to have you join us James. I joined the group just at the time your village was going through that nightmare. Poor souls. Any help we may have in destroying this evil is welcome."
And with that the elf turns and wanders over to where she had been knocked to the ground to retrieve her bow that had been dashed from her grip. Spotting it laying under a heavy sword she kneels to release it and slowly runs her hands along the length of the smooth wood to ensure it hasn't been harmed. Satisfied that it is intact she starts to stand when a small glitter catches her attention in the rubble on the floor. Reaching out, her fingers touch upon the ring she had been examining at the table with Darghon earlier. Surprised she holds it in the palm of her hand and realizes she must have been holding it as well when she fell. Turning it over she is drawn again to the workmanship and, walking over to where Thantos is standing, she is compelled to slide it onto her slender finger. Gazing at it she wonders at the irrestible draw it has.
