Saeril kept her glance on Kili when he was asking her these questions. No sad smile was made, nor was there a grateful one. It was just a stone-like expression upon her elvish features, almost an inner dissapointment at something invisible. Looking back at him, "Not 'we', just [i]you[/i]", she finally said. If he was dissapointed, she hoped he would understand. But for them to already be bonded, it was going to be a difficult for the both of them. "I am staying to tend to the damage of Laketown's people", she added before explaining. "I know you want me to go with you, and that we have promised each other to reach the mountain together, but for this result of Thorin's decision, I can't leave these people astray", the she-elf explained to him as she kept her gaze upon him. 

Hearing Mel near them, Saeril finally looked at her. "We won't. That mountain is what will drive the king into a fate that we cannot see. For us, we don't know whether if he will resist it or not", the she-elf explained to her friend before looking back at Kili. "Kili! We're leaving", Fili called after the boat was just about back in the water. "They are your people, Kili, you must go", she said before just about to walk off passed him.
