Melody was glad that at least one of the group seemed to know what she should look like and indeed knew her name.  That was good as riding up at such a speed with a rather large sword at her hip and wearing armor...  It certainly wouldn't have looked like an inviting appearance should her identity not been know...  Or at the very least hinted at.<br/><br/>"No...  I don't suppose you would have seen me getting off any vessel as I walked.  I know you said to try and arrive at a certainly time, but I certainly didn't think that it was a deadline!  I slept a bit longer than I intended last night.  Had I known I would be left behind though I might have hurried a bit more...  Still, no hard feelings.  At least you left me a horse!  I had been tired of walking, but I'm not real accustomed to riding horses and after that ride I can't wait until we arrive at our destination so I can get off of this beast and walk some more."
