[QUOTE="Arkhandus, post: 5520580, member: 13966"] Liiros sighs and removes anything that looks valuable from the fiend's corpse once he's sure it's good and dead. He hates how this place has soured his attitude, even moreso than the cold and banditry did earlier. But it would do no good to dwell on that and let it twist him into becoming as dour as a dwarf. No, this must surely be a trial by Corellon, testing Liiros' faith and perseverence, his grip on what it means to be elven. Corellon's people ought not be burdened by hatred, sorrow, or pessimism. He must strive to throw off the shackles of discomfort and failure before he can find the freedom of the road and claim victory in future challenges. He must prove himself worthy of great deeds before he can achieve them. At least he played some small part in ending Innenotdar's curse, though what will become of the forest and its seela in the wake of Indomitability's release is as yet unknown. Perhaps peace will return, but what little he learned of the forest's history recently casts doubt on that hope. Liiros sighs again and silently reassures himself that whatever the outcome, it must be better than the living hell endured by the forest and its inhabitants before today. Uttering a quiet prayer to the Creator and Protector of All Elves, Liiros turns away from the slain fiend and approaches Shaylir, adopting his old smile and kneeling, so he can place a hand on the halfling's shoulder and address her as close to eye-level as possible without sitting down. [COLOR="Lime"]"Of course you can travel with us, little friend. You have been a valuable ally and perhaps there are others you can help along the way. The fish-creatures you called forth were also much-welcome aid underwater.
