The mephits look at each other and giggle... well, like imps. Which isn't too far off course, technically speaking.<br/><br/>"A-costed? We never said we was gonna make you pay anything..." this comes from a third little cretin, whose ear-to-ear grin reveals teeth like tiny icicles. "Just asked the hyumins for kisses... We's not so bad. I actually cleaned my teeths this year!"<br/><br/>Beside you, you can see Kara's face twist in disgust at the prospect of kissing the little ice-monster... which just elicits more giggles from the creatures. For the most part, they don't seem intent on fighting. At least not at the moment. Then again, your sword is starting to feel<em>very</em>cold against your back... like resting up against a block of ice.<br/><br/>"From the looks of it," chimes the fourth mephit, in a voice like nails on a chalkboard. "The heemans dont think mephitses is worth kissing. Maybe, instead, they be worth gaming?"
