Catching Ophelia's words, the azure-eyed hunter frowned slightly then lowered his hand and glanced in her direction. He saw about her an air of finality. She'd made her decision. His reply was gruff. [color=#1A1A3B][b]“Mmm...very well. Though, when should we attempt to reconvene?”[/b][/color] Farren gestured at their surroundings, indicating that here was likely the best place. [color=#1A1A3B][b]“After all...we're unlikely to be near Rebirth's Rise once your [i]business[/i] has concluded.”[/b][/color] "Ah, dear, I will get the little ones to send you a message--or vice versa. You can update me as to where you are, and I can simply awaken at a conduit near you. Following the trail of slain beasts should lead me to you in no time at all, shouldn't it?" Ophelia replied, her voice somewhat distracted as her thoughts were clearly elsewhere. [color=#1A1A3B][b]“Ah, I'd forgotten,”[/b][/color] Farren said, looking slightly annoyed about the fact. He'd done enough forgetting for a lifetime, he figured. [color=#1A1A3B][b]“...too much information in too little a time,”[/b][/color] Farren muttered, [color=#1A1A3B][b]“...well, stay vigilant. May not die permanently...but no reason being reckless,”[/b][/color] he added. Then, with a final glance at their hosts and a respectful nod in their direction, Farren turned back to the gravestone and moved his hand back to its cold surface. He paused a breath and gave Torquil a sidelong glance over his shoulder, [color=#1A1A3B][b]“With me, Torquil. Unless you've got other business too.”[/b][/color] Farren tried to soften his tone, but his words still came out sounding slightly agitated.
