She managed to dredge up a small smile for him, though she was still unsure. Lhurriel followed him down the stairs and through the passages, her nervousness almost palpable (though outwardly, she seemed rather stoically expressionless). She kept track of where they went, her sharp mind mentally mapping out their path, but as they continued, she could feel her mind scrambling to make sense of<em>this</em>sudden turn of events.<br/><br/>Lhurriel had thought this was but a simple assignation, a little fun to be had from a maybe-rival (that had not turned out as such). There something deeper going on here, for sure - but she had no idea what it was.<br/><br/>When presented with the blindfold, she glanced back at him, a flat look on her face. "My trust had best not be misplaced, or I am sure it will be most fun to come after you with steel and blades," Lhurriel murmured softly. It was an cautionary threat, at best; she could hadle most situations that she fell into. But not knowing what was behind whatever door they would be through... she could also not be sure that she would be able to escape, excellent thieving skills or not.<br/><br/>But she turned to face forward, closing her eyes after a brief moment of hesitation.<em>If you're tricked and get yourself killed here, Lhurriel, Amery is going to murder you twice over when you see him at the pearly gates,</em>she couldn't help thinking to herself ruefully.
