Rihyan smiles a little as the small elf seems to relax with the group as he and her shook hands, and he shifted slightly getting his bulk settled comfortably, though he tried not to think what was lightly on the floor under his bulk.<br/><br/>Settled like he was, it left his upper body about the same height as a normal humanoid sat down, so he no longer stood out quite so much, though as his gaze crossed the floor of the tavern, he smiled a little predatorily at the griffontaur when he noticed him looking back towards their table, rememebering the look he got from him when he denied him the hobgoblin meat.<br/><br/>Not being from the valley, the names of the places mean nothing to him, though he guesses if they're pact cities, some of his companions might react a little badly to Jess, considering her one of the enemy.<br/><br/>Catching an imp, he orders a honey mead, knowing he could probably out drink any at his table and barely be affected, especially considering the meal he's had first.<br/><br/>He smiles a little at Mindy's question, wondering how she'd react to the story of what they're day had been like, though he doesn't actually start to explain it yet.
