[Color=8dc73f][I]It's Kenia, you asshole.[/I][/color] She thought irritatedly as he got her name wrong, yet at the same time she wasn't entirely surprised that he didn't remember her name. He was probably too busy admiring himself when she introduced herself...every time she introduced herself… [Color=8dc73f]"Thank you, my lord. You are so kind and generous, the Light Elves are lucky to have you ruling over them."[/color] She would shower him in compliments and flattery to keep on his good side even though she didn't mean a word of it. She could put on many masks, a skill she picked up many years ago and something she did well with. It helped get her out of many sticky situations. [Color=8dc73f]"If I come across any humans or any of those DROMs I will be sure to inform you, my lord."[/color] The lie came out smoothly, without any hint of nervousness. Terneus then wanted to go into the cave due to the natural crystals that grew in there and Kenia almost sighed in frustration. She kept a neutral expression, however, as she nodded in compliance. [Color=8dc73f]"Of course, my lord, I'd be happy to lead you up there. Be wary, however, as there is some muddy, wet areas near the back of the cave and can be quite slick."[/color] She informed him and this wasn't a lie, though she wasn't informing him just to earn him. She secretly hoped in May deter him a bit from traveling too far into the cave. [Color=8dc73f]"Also there is another weary traveler with me at the moment up there, he was nervous to come out and meet you as he didn't feel worthy to be in your glorious presence. I'm honored that you've allowed me to be graced by your presence.[/color] She said as she began moving back towards the entrance of the cave, hoping that she'd been speaking loud enough this whole time for Malachi to hear. She prayed he'd gotten the humans hidden in that alcove. She let Terneus continue talking as she entered back into the cave and made quick eye contact with Malachi. She quietly counted the different knives she had hidden on her at the moment as well as around the cave. She even had some coated in paralytic poison in case she needed to use it. She considered throwing up and illusion over the alcove for extra assurance that the humans were hidden, but she didn't as she worried Terneus would be able to quickly recognize the use of light magic. Better to not use any magic and not act any more suspicious.
