Saeril wasn't one to move away from such fate; she was just one to be a bit frankly blunt. Her words that stand within advice were frank, and they were pretty much straightforward, as she intends to be. As an elf from Fangorn, it wasn't a part of her to be forceful or controlling, although in some cases, Maleficent can be towards those she only disagreed with, when intending to sway them to see the good, rather than the evil. Diabolical it may be, it wasn't to bring harm upon them, despite how others think.

Upon Saeril's views of the Durin's Folk, Kili only had his brother to look up to in his life: as a teacher, a sibling, a parent, and a protector. For him, Fili was the only person he would honestly listen to these days, and isolated separation affects them both. Ever since the exile of their mother, Dis, Maleficent hasn't once left them from her sight. 'Course they weren't raised alone, it amused her when they found their uncle as a hero and a leader, after hearing all of the tales of age's greatest fighters. It was a strange mix of familial love and hero-worship, really, and in conclusion, the she-elf saw nothing genuine, in familial terms, between uncle and nephew. 

Gandalf was smoking his pipe in the near corner as Beorn talked to the surrounding dwarves. For her elf ears not failing her, Maleficent didn't lose yet a word. However, she didn't follow the young dwarf, but she did make a few steps forward in a stalking manner, in order to keep quiet and not draw attention. This didn't go unnoticed for the grey wizard, however. "Ah, at last, you have come", he spoke up in exclamation. The other dwarves, including Thorin, saw the strange she-elf. "Mithrandir", Sareil greeted back with a slight bow of her head, making her horns noticable. "Welcome to the Company, milady. Your elf ears don't cease you, since you know everyone", Gandalf complimented as he gestured to the dwarves. "Might I ask who this is?", the voice of Thorin sounded as he was leaning against the wall. "Thorin Oakenshield, I would like to introduce you all to Saeril Hermiaen, the last of the Elves of Fangorn", the wizard introduced her by her birth name, rather than "Maleficent", since fear wasn't necessary at a time like this.
