Vuduin nodded. A magical macguffin hm? He started at the man's introduction, [color=gray]"Of course, it seems my manners were forgotten as well, I'm Vuduin."[/color] His speech was odd. He'd offered greetings on behalf of Dialga? Ah yes, he must be one of those that was in... Contact for lack of a better word, with his legend. Vuduin shrugged in response to the offer and took the cigarette, as well as the proffered glasses which he quickly placed back on his head. [color=gray]"I'm afraid I've never smoked, but I've never turned down a gift either."[/color] A twist of his hand and the cigarette vanished into a pocket.

 [color=gray]"I thank both Dialga and Deladriss for their greetings and offer mine and Shade's return."[/color] At the mention of his name Shade floated out from beneath the chair and landed on Vuduin's head protectively, still staring inquisitively at Drystan. This avatar was rather odd. The self deprecating snippets and self-confidence were an odd match. Perhaps a perfectionist who was glaringly aware of his own mistakes. [color=gray]"If I may inquire further, what was your intent with this macguffin? You don't seem like the sort of man to do anything idly, even your talk to me I would assume is more than random interest."[/color]
