[i]oh no[/i] Elliott thought, [i]She is still crying[/i]. Elliott quickly looked around once more to make the scary spirits hadnt come back yet. and seeing as he was safe, and it looked like he would be for a while.... he hoped. He listened to her until she had finished and while it was a touching story it didnt make the skeletons any less scary.

Very calmly he began talking, upsetting her more would not turn out well for him he had a feeling. "Now calm down, I was more supprised than anything." He said, trying to sound truthful (and he did a pretty good job of it too if he would say so himself. His time in the royal courts had certainly sharpened his tongue if not his magic), Putting a cautious hand on the little girl's shoulder, he said "Now Ill be honest, that was more than a little terrifying but if you promise that they wont appear again then I can see what I can do about your foot."
