Eliezer was relieved when Raven finally spoke and explained the situation. He listened intently to anyone who contributed to filling him in about what had taken place. It all made sense, considering that there really had been an attempted attack on the orphanage. On another note, Raven seemed concerned about the way she currently looked, with her sister highlighting the fact even more. As most of the women he interacted with were either dressed in noble attire or servant uniforms, Raven's manner of dress was always refreshing to him. He thought it appropriate to comment on her appearance, with all the attention brought to it, and did so when everyone else had dispersed. He also believed that he was getting used to her hugs.

"It certainly is an interesting twist to village apparel. Your sister does have quite the gift," he pointed out, before pulling out a dagger and presenting it to her. "This slipped my mind earlier this morning. It belongs to the Night Owl, please return it to him for me. He left it with us while we were in Sorene, rather, he nearly hit my knight in the face with it after a comment was made expressing his distrust for the Moon Raven."

He shook his head at the memory. "You are loved by your companions, my lady, you have done well for yourself and you should be proud. However, it is apparent that the decision you have made to keep seeing me has not been well received by many who used to respect you. It is highly likely that the attempted attack on your home was a result of more knowing that you wish to protect me. I cannot help but find myself responsible for this... inconvenience, that you have been caused. Is what we have now, truly worth what has happened? I fear that we may not be able to move on without things getting worse for the both of us."
