He'd recognized her as the town's resident merfolk and jeweler. A peculiar one she was. Locating herself so far away from her people. But the fate of Lorenstad was at hand and he had to see how much damage had been wrought between the battle between Mesmer and Dragon. But as soon as he stood himself properly, he looked back to the town to see it's state now that he was sure that Thaddeus and the dragon had begun fighting...only to discover that Lorenstad was still miraculously serene and in one piece. The birds still chirped their merry tunes and the wind carried no acrid smell nor black smoke of dragonfire. Had he been wrong about the fight? That would mean that he'd caused an unnecessary ruckus on a misinterpretation. [color=steelblue]"Oh dear..."[/color] He threw Minnow out of a window for nothing. Luckily enough he saw the wagon Shina and the rest were going and, Maker's mercy, no sign of a certain Night Elf innkeeper...yet. There was no time left to return to his home to get equipment and supplies. He had to make a decision now. Go catch up with Shina's wagon to go on a little adventure or stay and risk facing Minnow? Rudolph inhaled deeply and willed away the lingering pains of his accidental self-inflicted injuries. He had made his decision. He'd need to distance himself from Lorenstad for a while and no opportunity presented itself better than Shina's quest. [color=steelblue]"I would love to talk some more, but my prior commitment to our resident blacksmith requires me to follow-through with what I said I would do. I do promise answers if you still need them when we return."[/color] The wizard then re-casted his spell to enhance his physical ability. His body returned to it's [url=https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EV6AFJPWsAE6To-.jpg]unnaturally sized[/url] state and bolted...again. Soon he would regroup with the others and before anyone could say a word, Rudolph apologized for his brash actions and misinterpretations. Swearing to be more open minded and less impulsive, that is if they were still willing to have him help on this quest.
