Listening to the exchange quietly, Kaihel shook his head. They were, in function, something of a haphazardly thrown together group to say the least. Friction and adjustments were to be expected. Exhaling as Calypso wandered off, he turned back to Rumsey, offering the pirate a wordless shrug.<span style="color: darkred">"Don't take it personally. The fairie is not fond of me in the slightest."</span>Turning to scan the crowd, the knight reached back to tie up his dark hair.<span style="color: darkred">"Still, one must admit, she has something of a point. Do you have any means of perhaps increasing the odds your 'ally' won't leave us all to drown? It goes without saying that we can't complete our tasks if we're dead."</span><br/><br/>Taking a few steps to the side, Kaihel withdrew a few rupees, paying a merchant for a few pieces of fruit. As he took a bite, he couldn't help but overhear some of the local chatter.<br/><br/>"...and then the moblins beat my brother half to death, all because he wouldn't pay! They come down every few months so they're sure to be back soon!"<br/><br/>Frowning, the knight moved closer to the group, still eating while he listened, motioning Rumsey to come closer as well. While it was true that they were on a mission, he was still very much as knight of Hyrule which meant helping the people as well. Turning to the pirate he tossed him a spare apple.<span style="color: darkred">"In the meantime, we can't let this go on."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
