Sighing Gren nodded his head solemnly. [color=00a651]"Aye. Shiro's... Guilty about what happened, so he's trying to take responsibility for it. A noble effort, but I'm also certain he won't succeed on his own. Or at least he's going to hurt himself trying. Look after him would you? He's a nice guy, but he has a hard time understanding that he's hurting people."[/color] Gren himself looked a bit guilty. While it was Shiro's fault that Sapphire lost her daggers, Gren felt if he was paying attention, if he at least disciplined Shiro enough to not to run about recklessly, maybe this entire fiasco would have been avoided. 

Indeed, ever since Sapphire lost those daggers Gren felt the dynamic of the team, or what little of it there was, had taken a notable hit. He knew Shiro and Abel didn't respect Sapphire and Gren himself isn't exactly too thrilled under her leadership. Sapphire herself has shown no interest or a sliver of concern about her teammates beyond their ability to do as she commands, which is going to bite her in the butt since no one will listen to her if she keeps this up. Gren hopes that if Shiro brings back the daggers, it would at least give him the opportunity to mend the broken bridge between him and Sapphire. And open up everyone else, Gren included, to try to get along with their leader.

Or figure out if Sapphire is someone everyone should cut ties with and let her fight her battles alone. Gren hopes it won't come to that, but sacrifices have to be made. And Gren was more than willing to sacrifice Sapphire if it came to it.

[color=00a651]"Communication underwater is going to be tough however. I'd suggest that if you do go diving into the lake, try to look for the daggers yourself. Be sure to use your Scroll to provide illumination as well as help Shiro see where you are. Be careful of Grimm though. I'm sure Sapphire's daggers have enough resentment and frustration to create something really nasty down there."[/color]

Gren joked, though he was certain she had some pent up family issues that would have manifested into a powerful Grimm or some such. Nothing that Shiro and the others couldn't handle if it came to that, but something to worry about all the same. Gren turned to Robert and offered him a similar speech. [color=00a651]"Robert, you'd help Shiro out too, right? He might be too proud or too guilty to ask, so please make sure he doesn't get in over his head. Bring him back alive so I can chew him out for thinking he couldn't ask his friends to help him. Unfortunately I have my own obligations to attend to, though if everything works out I might be able to help some. If you guys manage to finish quickly, maybe you could even catch up with me and the others on our roaming party."[/color]
