"Thank you." He nodded to the lithe elven woman as she gave her consent without argument on his placement in the walk to and upcoming exploration of the tower. He notices his clothes and his armor suddenly is clean from the grime and muck he found himself in earlier. The chainmail beneath his tabard no longer sticking and he turns to look at the beautiful noblewoman again. A grateful smile give to her again as he says. "And thank you m'lady, my armor alone would have taken me hours to clean."<br/><br/>Brakus runs a soldier's eyes in assessing the area around them. He takes in the placement of the bodies, and how the arrows are jutting out some of the bodies. "We best get going." He says to everyone once they are ready.  "If I was living out here, I would have sent out a patrol at the first sign of life. Including that light that enveloped everyone. This area is a hunting and killing ground." He looks to Fara one more time knowing she is the other person here to have taken notice that same detail.
