"It does seem odd, however the volcano on this island is a mana vent from the Leylines." Lios glances to steep slope just beyond the edge of town. Just about all the island was this small port town and the volcano. "I doubt there is a regular local mana flow on this island,” Lios shrugged. “It might not be a bad idea to see if we can find some Runes around the volcano, get out of town for a short bit.”

[color=sienna]”... That’s better than staying here. Admittedly a lot of things are better than staying in a human settlement…”[/color] Ifrinn looked over at the volcano in the distance and frowned. [color=sienna]” I’ll say I don’t think I was feeling the volcano just now, that thing doesn’t look like it’s seen any action in at least a few hundred years.”[/color]

“You might be right, considering there’s a town right at the base of it,” Lios rubbed his neck, with a faint smirk on his face. 

[color=sienna]” Great more humans…”[/color] Ifrinn noticed Lios’s smirk [color=sienna]“ Something amusing?”[/color] Ifrinn asked raising an eyebrow.

“Not at all,” Lios waved his hand. “You just remind me a lot of my little sister. She doesn’t care much for humans either and literally has a nose for trouble.” What little smile he had faded a bit, realizing how much he missed her. 

[color=sienna]” Sounds like a sensible girl. We could use more people like her on the ship.”[/color] With that Ifrinn went quiet noticing Lio’s drop in mood and decided to let the conversation end there. She didn’t care much for conversation anyway.
