Korri nodded, melancholy further dimming the weary light of his eyes. He found he was tired of speaking now, and dearly needed to rest. It was too much work trying to figure out if the strangers were sincere. If he ought to believe them. The absence of his raven was a ragged hole between his lungs. "I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye out," he sighed. He nodded after Kiada spoke. "Yes. Kiada helped with the worst of it. Time will deal with the rest. I'm not badly injured — just exhausted. I thank you for your hospitality. And your generosity. I'll see if I can think of some way to repay you, regardless." A faint smile darted across his features, but quickly extinguished. "It has been an honor to meet you, Roscorro the Dragon Heart. Rixen the Vine King." Korri nodded to each of them as he spoke their names. Then he turned back to Kiada. "Thank you," he said in response to her offer. He couldn't think of anything else to say, so he didn't. Just waited for her to lead on, his thoughts buzzing like locusts in his head.
