"Hm, I see," Zel said, standing up. "A day's travel south of here you said? Well," he said, "In that case I'll leave in the morning. I may return here later as I don't think I've yet exhausted the information here, but I feel this takes precedence. I won't object if you all choose to come with me," he said, "but if you choose against it, then this would be where our goals separate us. You said your name is Keirus?" Zel confirmed, "will you be going back or shall I go alone?"<br/><br/>It may have seemed a joke at first, but by now it was obvious that Zel was completely serious about leaving. The reason was simple; he had a goal. And he'd just gotten a very good lead towards that goal. Though he enjoyed the company of these people, if they didn't wish to come, he would simply go alone. He was used to traveling alone anyway. It crossed his mind for a moment that if he wasn't there there'd be no one to heal Larea. But he'd made his choice; he was going to see what this wolf-man's home had to offer. Though it was true he silently wished at least Larea would come with him. That would do quite a lot to clear his conscience.
