Clover rubs her slender hands near the fire to warm them and listens to Nara's and Xelise's banter.  "Ooh, a white knight?" She grins at that.  "I<i>was</i>lucky indeed-- an entire cadre of knights for my rescue."   She straightens her posture in a gleeful pose of pride at Nara's curtsy, receiving it with a regal nod.<i>Charming girl,</i>she thinks to herself, her lips pursing into a subtle smile.<br/><br/>She then looks to Xelise, staying 'in character' as she replies.  "They have different names for it.  Some say sorcery, so we'll call it that."   She narrows her eyes.  "Not planning on sacrificing me to some dark forces, are you?"  Her smile says she is, apparently, at least half-kidding.<br/><br/>At the mention of Benesli, Clover finds the warrior's eyes with her own.  She starts to speak, but her mood becomes noticeably more somber at the sound of Sharla's prayer.  She sighs at that, letting the eye contact linger on the curiously youthful face, trying to send her gratitude without words, before the moment's passed.<br/><br/>Leaning back and entining two fingers in a lock of her cropped violet hair, she closes her eyes, tilting her face skyward in a moment's pious respite.<br/><br/>When the prayer finishes, she smiles softly to Nara and speaks softly.  "I'm sure there will be trouble, no matter what road we travel.  No?"
