Valeria followed meekly, too embarrassed to even try to say something. There was no excuse, no reason to be given. The best she could do was not mention it and hope everyone would be so kind to do the same. And hope she would be able to avoid that. She was actually eager to learn some magic, maybe there was some spell she could cast to learn if she were actually crazy.<br/><br/>The eyes of the men of the way made her shiver in ways that told her she might actually be crazy. Part of her wanted to run from them,  but another, had thoughts she didn't dare to explore. The view of the tower came as a relief, as she no longer had to think about them.<br/><br/>The news about creatures made her stop worrying about her mental state. It was a relief to have something to talk.<br/><br/>"What creatures?" was all she said, but she felt better with that than with herself.<br/><br/>
