"You are stronger than you believe."

The sudden words stop the elezen in his tracks. Emerald eyes sweep up from the dropped scrolls to look at her before he kneels down, carefully gathering the documents before they can get dirtier. 

The sight of scales and horns still made his stomach knot with something akin to hatred. The feeling was sickening, constricting and he found himself drawing a deep breath. The hatred had been one of the things to linger from those final moments; the hatred and the sense of righteousness that had consumed him wholly.

Still he held his tongue, finished gathering the scrolls he’d dropped when he’d bumped into her (how tiny she was too, now that he thought of it. Auri women were so small of stature but no less fierce for it). In his short time in this foreign land he’d been trying to quell such negative thoughts and find peace of mind but he could recall even back home he’d held slight hostilities towards the scaled people. Not very noble or knightly, now that he thought about it.

“I am not sure what you refer to, miss.” The scrolls were tucked quickly back into his bag and he stepped back to bow in apology. “But do forgive my carelessness. I was too busy following the map and your presence went unnoticed.”
