She didn't say anything though and didn't feel the need to reply in the least - only give subtle feelings of gratitude towards the gesture. Before long though, Kairos chimed in with approval to which she only mentally nodded and looked to her apparent new companion. Quietly, she wandered about the girl, but in the end just offered a soft smile - she could tell there was something about the girl, something normally seen as dark and evil, but Nina hardly seemed the type. Deciding to reserve judgement, she turned towards a small boat that approached, the men giving her questioning gazes. [b][color=ff6699]"She is with me,"[/color][/b] she spoke simply and while they looked at each other in confusion, seemed to accept it. As they got closer, two men offered a hand into the small boat that would take them back to the ship, which Sofia took without hesitation before sitting as the vessel rocked back and forth against the waves. Suddenly, her mind tinged with alarm as she heard thoughts of one of the strangers - a woman seeking Corda as a target! Apparently the woman decided that this was all madness inside her own head, making Sofia huffed lightly to herself, knowing full well that yelling at her probably wouldn't do much. She had to make it back to the rebellion before the assassin did and warn her. She shot a look towards Nina and pursed her lips. [i][color=ff6699]'We might be making a detour before being able to talk to Corda..'[/color][/i] she mentally projected only to Nina, hopeful the girl would understand exactly why. A few minutes later, the pair was on board the ship, to which Sofia yelled to the captain, [b][color=ff6699]"we need to make haste back to Sheolan!"[/color][/b] Apparently the warrior was a woman of a more serious tone as the statement put the crew into a frenzy. Looking to Nina, she let out a slight sigh. [b][color=ff6699]"... well, we should get out of the way. The mess hall is below deck and.."[/color][/b] She tensed slightly as she continued, [b][color=ff6699]".. I suppose you can board in my room.."[/color][/b] Unsure of how that'd work out, exactly, Sofia had resigned herself to it since it was the only room left on the ship for the girl. Watching Nina for a brief moment, Sofia suddenly turned around and made her way to the room - regardless if Nina followed her or not.
