Barrington winced at the small cut he received though it likely would have been far worse if not for the half-vampire's intervention on his behalf. He had to give her fair credit on the speed with which she re-positioned herself, likely it was on account of her heritage, but he couldn't be anything but grateful. Luckily despite the attempt on his life the throw had landed more or less far enough down the corridor to prevent any of his compatriots from suffering injury which was all he could have hoped for. What happened next surprised even him as after the first expected detonation there was a second and much larger one that shook the storehouse, not to mention the ground, alike. His own balance was offset for a moment as a result but a moment was all it took to regain it after which giving a befuddled look in the direction of the tunnel his grenado had flew into.

[color=FF8C00]"That was...most unexpected."[/color] The inventor said voicing an answer to a question he guessed that wasn't only on his mind, [color=FF8C00]"Not enough power in my little grenados to do that, must have hit something else more volatile down that way. Oh well its one less surprise to worry about in that direction Kessel willing."[/color]

The engineer seemed a bit less tense afterwards with a small but growing grin peeking out for a moment as they seemed to have cleared out all opposition in this room, quite possibly even the next after that unintentional and thunderous blast. He did take a moment to check himself as best he could finding it was quite a minute wound thankfully though the little cretin damaged his jacket which admittedly annoyed him. However, better to be inconvenienced than dead in the end but it was something he would try to get tailored once they returned to the village. The nobleman turned to the half-vampire fully intending to thank the woman for assisting him quite happy with the idea of having someone to watch his back.

[color=FF8C00]"You have my thanks for that, I would not have been able to managed that nearly so well."[/color] Barrington said to Alliana as he thought it was proper for such a thing.

While they took a moment to collect themselves his prerogative was to reload his Dragoon for any future encounters and taking a swift headcount of his explosives and gadgets as well just in case.
