Arkain eeeps  turning quickly seeing that the fox had heard what he had said. He forgot how good foxes hearing is.  He squirms awkwardly trying to figure a way out of this. " Sorry. Its nothing personal. I know the storm is bad and its a crazy idea to go in it. I just have trouble trusting foxes after some bad runs that I had with foxes. " He listens to both David and Nabiti. He thinks for a minute. "Yea, your right David. I can't let a couple bad foxes let me think all foxes are bad. Thats not fair. I apologize Nabiti. You know you are right. I should not jump to conclusions. OK Nabiti, You deserve a chance. " He smiles finishing drying himself off.<br/><br/>Arkain's expression quickly changes and he drops into a defensive position jumping in front of the human and jackal his claws and teeth bared looking all about for trouble. "DANGER! WHERE?" He looks back at David relaxing not seeing anything."  I don't sense anything. You think Nabati is in danger too? Are you sure? " He looks at David. He could see genuine fear in his face. He could tell he was telling the truth. This is not the best situation to deal with evil. HE is still not 100% sure who to trust.<br/><br/>Arkain look over at Nabati suspiciously. Why did he change the subject so quickly? Is he trying to hide something. He wonders. Arkain turns to David he is curious too about his size. " A water mage. Fighting him in the rain. You will never win that fight. I am glad you will be able to return to your full size David." He moves over and puts his hand on your shoulder. "  Hummm. You know I have heard water mages can be pretty powerful but like any elemental mage they have their strengths and weaknesses but a water mage being evil that doesn't make sense. Its very unusual for a mage of one element to be evil. Its usually the one who can control several elements I worry about." He looks out through the windows to see if he can see anything moving.
