Tormin gave Nalia a strange look at her initial description of strange, small, children like creatures as he followed her along the tunnel. It sounded more than simply eerie, especially the part about them following their movements, and he kept reaching for his pistol at every sound. When they reached the forest village, he was even more confused. No sense of death or murderous intent filled the air. It wasn't until he turned to Nalia and spotted her smile, and the sound of her laughter that he relaxed, and realized she was simply teasing him.<br/><br/>He gave her a look, like he'd remember this for later, though his relaxed smile didn't really sell it. "Oh I'm sure you're sorry, stringing me along like that." He chuckled with her after a moment, and then looked towards where she pointed. "Well, I'm not sure what to expect here, but I suppose if this game is one you normally play alone, then an extra challenge might be something needed for the both of us, right?" He mused, and then frowned a moment, "Although I'm not too keen on finding out whatever a... creepy grabby hand thing is supposed to be. I guess we'll see."
