As Settione unlocked her shackles, Aeryn would feel relieved of the weight of the cold iron, and hear the clack of the shackles as it hit the stone. Argon's tongue flickered out as he gazed down at the Dorcha half breed. "Friend or food?" He asked, his voice echoing with a guttural undercurrent. Geradin finished healing Ursaren, his hammer becoming a beacon for a short moment, waving it above his wounds, sealing them together. 

"Neither," the Gruff Dwarf said, glancing Aeryn's way, obviously a bit too stuck in his ways to accept her at the moment. "She wants to leave, and I agree." 

Calanon the Elf hopped down from the Mushroom, and with an impressive leap, cleared the river without touching a drop of water and landing lithely onto the stone. His feet made nary a sound. "Coast is clear for now." he reported. Brogach the Elk stayed close to him, the mount still somewhat perturbed by their underground location, but a bit less scared with the low illumination of the fungus around them.

Once Aeryn was free, Beren crossed his muscled arm and let out a breath and spoke to Aeryn. "You're free." He said, even giving a small smile. "But if you're hungry, we were just about to eat dinner until all hell broke loose. We have some jerky if you'd like." He said. The tanned monk glanced across the river to the spots of blood and altered his posture, placing his hands on his hips. "Besides, something tells me you'd be in the mood to help us out a bit." 

"Oi, don't go telling her our quest!" Geradin growled, his beard bristling as he shouldered past An-Hasst and Settione to square up with Beren. What followed was Beren giving a gruff reply in Dwarvish, to which Geradin spat back in the same tongue and Beren, by his tone, gave a witty retort that had Geradin growling in defeat. "Fine!" The Dwarf declared, walking back to their small makeshift camp, with Calanon joining him to grab a towel for Alice. Beren shook his head at the departing Dwarf and sighed. "Once you get to know him he's not so bad." He said with a grin to Aeryn. "So how bout it?"
