He got no more then a two bites before his eyes widened at the way the Argonian began to shovel the food away. It was almost like the man was a bear trying to put away enough meals to last him all through the winter! He was so distracted by it that Freya's question nearly escaped his notice, and indeed it took the Nord some time to register it. After a few moments, he shook his head. By that point Ilya was beginning to explain his talents, which quickly brought the companion from his surprised stupor. Shaking his head, he washed down what food he'd manage to eat with the mug of junniper mead to his right.<br/><br/><strong>"I say it couldn't hurt to have a specialist in the area. After all, skilled men hold a position. Groups of specialist take them."</strong>Kreios hinted with a wry grin, but quickly the choice of words he'd spoken caught up with him. Among the companions it wouldn't have seemed odd to refer to them all as men, nor would it have seemed sexist. He didn't know how the shield maiden would feel about that, however. So scratching his head with a light chuckle, he gave a apolgtic nod of his head.<strong>"Or women in your case."</strong>He added, now tracing his finger over the top of the mug for a moment.<br/><br/><strong>"If Ilya is wiling to come, we could certainly use the help. And since he offered."</strong>Kreios began as his eyes shifted to the Argonian in thanks.<strong>"We'll be taking it."</strong>With those last words, he put his mind back to the food finishing what he could on his already soured stomach. After all, his hunger had been well slaked on the way over here. The beast could put away far more then he could, especially after five years of asceticism at High Hrothgar. After those few bites he chsed it with the last of that mug, and set it down with a slam.<br/><br/>Kreios's eyes hadn't missed Ilya's flirtations with the Lady Warrior, and he wasn't one to stand in the way if he could help it. So with another chuckle he rose from the table, laying a folded leather map between them.<strong>"That's what I was given. The Harbinger said it was delivered from the contractor. Seems to be a half scrawled map of something. Possibly the Draugr ruin, if I had to wager. Take a look at it, see if the two of you can make more out of it then I have. I'll be getting a few winks of rest in the meantime, we'll set out as soon as possible afterward."</strong>The Companion explained, giving a sly smile to Ilya as he turned from Freya.<br/><br/><strong>"Saying the two of you are ready that is. I only have five days to complete this, so while we have time, we should aim to be quick."</strong>Kreios added as he began to stride off, speaking with the inkeep for a moment before heading upstairs to a room. He'd leave them be for now, besides he wanted to be alone for the trembles that were going to beset him as is. He wasn't use to feeling the beast this close anymore, he'd have to get use to it again.
