There was a short pause from the crowd as they turned their attention towards him. Emily stood up, smiling and chuckling slightly. "Oh he's quite a tough man, no worries there. Besides, she's just paying him back for some of the stunts he's pulled off on her earlier." The tone she said it suggested to not take it too seriously, and Tielwater smirked a hint too, despite his grimace soon returning. "Ahh, yeah. I got protection." He nod his head. "Still aches." He muttered, getting to his feet.<br/><br/>"Still, our new friend has shown me some interesting new techniques but I think I will have to first<em>practice</em>them." His tone teasing, earning a short chuckle from the halfling matriarch before she looked at Tehr. "Master Tehr ir'Ravos, I hope you do not take us for barbaric folk despite our love of simple things in life, we simply enjoy life to its fullest." She bowed her head slightly in a polite fashion, her presence that of a woman of power, even her bow didn't show submission but mere polite respect towards him in turn.<br/><br/>"Now if you would, I will have to see that my companion's...<em>wedding tackle</em>is properly treated." She offered her hand to Tielwater that took it, getting up to follow after her, back into the house. Emily walked towards him when the mage-lad that Tehr defeated earlier walked up towards him too.<br/><br/>"Well, I have to say you surprised me before. Didn't quite expect to lose. Still, guess I needed a reminder to not get my head too stuck up in the clouds." He smiled, but the eyes he had on Tehr were burning with hate. "I got work to do though." Turning around, he bowed at Charlotte and Tanya, as Char tried to hide behind her sister's skirt a bit better, as the man headed back indoors.<br/><br/>Emily sighed and shook her head, before stepping closer those last steps to take his hand, inhaling the air around him and blinking. "So, would you care to entertain us with tales of what you have seen and thought of our lands so far? I could get a bit better idea of where you might want to roam and what you might like to see then..." Her tone was friendly and open, but at the same time Eeva and the others were watching him curiously as well, rather than heading indoors.
