Galos helped Elena to her feet and gently stroked the side of her face, as if examining her. She was a new person, after all. It was only fitting that she was passed over with scrutiny. Galos smirked a bit, a triumphant look on his features as he finally spoke in a non-formal manner, signifying the end of the little occurrence.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff0000">"Good girl, Elena,"</span>Galos said, partially praise filled but hiding a hint of the fact some people use for the animals that serve as their pets. He patted her chin a little bit and brought her close to him.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff0000">"If you want a reward, then I suggest you go to <i>my </i>quarters immediately."</span>Before Elena could benefit from how close he was to her, Galos pulled away from her. Stepping to the side and gave her an.... encouraging swat to get a move on.<br/><br/>Galos stayed where he was for a few minutes, giving her the time she needed to beat him to his room. But there was more to it than that. He was exploring the newfound bond. He wanted to make sure a Tal'ren was not different in how the bond formed. Thus, Galos began to poke around in the mind of Elena, seeing just how her mind was broken and reforged to get her from the dominant and confident loudmouth woman who ran the pub, into this -hopefully- docile and obedient little lady. It was time to see what made her tick and what did he do to push her over the edge and into a servitude that she did not even know the depths of. Either way, Galos was being cautious, trying to subtly poke around within her own thoughts.
