[quote=Vară Riemsianne][color=ed1c24]"Excuse me, average boy. I never actually got the chance to thank you. You know, for saving me and all. I probably would've gotten out of the way in time and promptly dispatch that simpleton, but you have my gratitude regardless."[/color][/quote]

Neil smiled, not minding the nickname given. "Hey, it's no biggie. You saved me back, right?"

"I have to admit though, that was my first fight ever. In my entire life." Neil revealed. "Not that I'm a stranger to fighting, I saw much... but from a distance. To be part of the real thing? It's surreal." The boy chuckled. "I was actually frozen solid there. I thought... I thought I'd be sitting it out. But I saw you in trouble and I... just had to, you know?"

He appeared to want to say more but decided against it before finishing. "Thanks again, Vară."

[quote=Freyr][color=8dc73f]"I... misjudged him. I might have misjudged humans as a whole race... Selfish... Greedy... Self destructive... They lack respect for their own... The don't value anything but their own desires. Not even life. Maybe the elders were right... A Viera belong to the woods. I wonder if the woods will welcome back with open arms again."[/color][/quote]

Haley could not believe what she was hearing. "[color=royalblue]W-What're you saying? Are you- Are you leaving?![/color]"

"[color=royalblue]Just like that? Someone gets pissy and you're ready to throw in the towel?[/color]" The Siren began to berate [u]Freyr[/u]. "[color=royalblue]Come on Freyr, you're better than that. You've encountered the Varjans and you're gonna get discouraged by some callous jerk?[/color]" She sighed. "[color=royalblue]Besides, what about the other Humans you've met? You think plain ol' Neil back there is just as much of a jerk? Or that Maria girl in Boreal Port?[/color]"

It was then that [u]Ditzy[/u] and [u]Nagare[/u] who also had words for [u]Freyr[/u].

[quote=Nagare][color=6ecff6]"Ms. Haley I hope you're not too upset either, I know he insulted you during all that."[/color][/quote]

The Siren sighed. "[color=royalblue]...Well, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't affected but I'll be fine.[/color]" Haley replied to the Dragon. "[color=royalblue]Thanks for asking.[/color]"

[quote=John Clark] "Well...my name is John Clarke. As far as skills go, I may be the man you need to fix that hole. I did construction and engineering in my home town. If you can tell Bart to just get materials, I could do it. Actually, I don't think I brought the tools for it. I could head into the closest town and buy the tools and materials. Consider the tools payed for but I'll bart the bill on the materials. Anyway, aside from construction, I've been a blacksmith for awhile. I'm also a decent tailor so making clothes, armor, and weapons for the group wont be difficult if the need it. I'm decent with a weapon too."[/quote]

"W-Well, Bart already took most of the gold so... no gold for you." Neil replied, relaxing somewhat.

"And don't worry about the hole for now. If Bart comes back without anyone, we'll get you working. For now, you can take it easy for a while, maybe do a quest or two. The day's perfect for some adventuring." Neil suggested. "We actually have some requests posted at the Quest Board. Err, it's outside but I took a quick glance and there's a lot." He continued.

"But since you just came here, you are free to relax and explore the guild for the day. Of course, we expect you to pull your weight here but considering you're an engineer and knows how to fight, I'm sure that won't be a problem."

[quote=John Clark] "Oh, I also can enchant items while I make them. My clothes are enchanted against wear and tear. I can do more than that but I thought I'd give an example. "[/quote]

"Oh, you can make stuff too and enchant them?" Neil repeated. "We actually have a forge behind the guild. And we also have Talia, our very own Cyclops smith. She usually in the forge but... we've yet to avail her services since our... usual fighters don't use weapons that much. Still, it's nice to have her."

"Do you wanna meet her? I believe she's at the forge right now. I believe she's also into construction and building like you are."
