Galen instinctively steps back from the fuming young woman, who he has now realized may not actually be a dwarf. At the same time, his head whips around in surprise at the swordsman who had stepped in from behind them.

[color=darkviolet]"Ah,"[/color] is all he can say as he looks up, registering the fourth individual who had taken an interest in the quest form. Right, he's heard word of a drider in the Hall, but he'd never really seen her until now. 

Wait, right, the quest. He gathers his wits about him, proceeding to follow the shorter of the two swordsmen.

[color=darkviolet]"Excuse me, miss!"[/color] He raises his voice slightly to catch her attention. [color=darkviolet]"May I also take a look at that?"[/color]

[color=darkviolet][i]Be tactful[/i][/color], he thinks to himself. [color=darkviolet][i]You've offended her, apologize first.[/i][/color]

[color=darkviolet]"Uh,"[/color] as he follows her, he starts to think of the right words to say, in hopes of salvaging her impression of him. In an even, calm voice, he delivers his apology. [color=darkviolet]"I'm sorry you're short."[/color]
