Velan had been in his own thoughts before the Altmer began to talk to the group he was doing his best to ignore her [i]Gods save me[/i] he thought before turning his attention to Keldan. His demeanor was visibly irritated a fiery look shot back at her. "You are mistaken i do not have eyes for your kind woman, as for Maria i was keeping an eye out as the rest of my party were."

" one such as you is below the use of a weapon of such finesse and skill the bow is the soul of my people a people stuck at the bottom of the boot of the Thalmor."

For a split second silence seemed to fill the Tavern.
