Takeo sat upon his horse, fully armored, towing a second, smaller horse behind him, his spear and shield strapped to the smaller one's back. When the shrine came into view he grunted and said "I see it too," When Benevolence pointed it out. He had been traveling a long time to get here and had just recently met these others, he didn't trust them, not yet anyway, but he was sure he would in time. When the girl spun around on her horse to face him and the others he looked at her, his blue eyes and dark skin visible through the eye-holes of his helmet, but not much else could be seen. "Hello," he said to her with a nod, trying his best to acknowledge his companions and earn their trust even though conversation never really came naturally to him it seemed the best way to start.
