Saeril's lack of reply only fueled Kili's inner worries. Was she avoiding his question because she did not know the answer, or was she avoiding telling him the truth because she [i]did[/i] know? Brows knit, he watched her, though his troubled expression seemed to relax a little when she'd kissed his forehead. 
As the she-elf lead the way towards the boat, Kili followed closely, unable to make eye contact with the people of Laketown. Right now, he felt ashamed, but he also had hope that his uncle could somehow make this right.

Now to the boat, Kili climbed aboard, then offered his godmother a hand. The man from earlier boarded as well, and Kili's mouth dropped in protest. Surely he wasn't coming...was he?

"You alright there, lad?" Bofur had seen what had happened earlier. Seeing Thorin's nephews threatened was not a sight he liked; they were were being held responsible for something they'd taken no part in. "Oh, this is Cenrid," he nodded towards their newest member. "Least...that's what I thought he said his name was."

"You heard correctly." Cenrid looked to Kili briefly, then moved aside so that the others might board. Evening would soon be upon them, and they had a long way to go.

Kili wasn't sure how to feel about Cenrid joining them. He hadn't much experience in dealing with humans, and the experience he did have, he did not like it. Humans seemed to look down upon them, just as the elves did. Not Saeril, though.

Without a word, Kili sat down next to his godmother, thankful for the chance to rest a bit. The boat moved along, and all was quiet, leaving the youngest deep in thought. In times such as these, he missed his mother, and he missed their home in Ered Luin. The journey had taken a dark turn, and he wondered if he would ever be able to fulfill his promise to her.
Carefully, Kili removed the runestone from his pocket and turned the smooth stone over a few times, then handed it to his godmother so that she might see the engraving. 
"I promised Mum that I would come back to her, once the journey is done," he explained, voice low so that the conversation would only be between them.  "It's very important to me...and I want you to have this."
