There is only one thing keeping Audra from being face flat on the table. That's the plate with two sandwiches before her and her who knows how many-eth ale sitting nearby. Her look from the early morning wake up from her dream seemingly worsened by blood shot eyes and a look of simply having pushed herself to the edge of her limits under the circumstances. She eyes the Dwarf when he comes clean. Composing herself, she takes a swallow of ale to wash down anything unpleasant that might have slipped past what was left of her mental guard.
"Our wooden friend is quite the physician. Though I doubt without our team work and that antitoxin that we'd have been as lucky. I understand about trust. This trip has taught me to trust all of this lot. Even those I hadn't met until this whole thing started. That stupid Gnome..."
She catches herself. Another small swallow of ale.
"It is nice to know that he has good friends who care about him and will help him. I'd like to rush out to him, now, but if he is safe there, I will trust your word to wait the night. Besides, in all honesty, I am surprised I haven't gone face down into this plate. Perhaps tonight, now that I know he is safe, I can sleep. But, before I forget my manners, please let me thank you now, for watching out for Alecks. I doubt he'll remember shucking oysters together in Venza, but we'll just see. As for staying here, I don't think I really have much choice. Unless someone wanted to carry me."
A wry smile breaks into a nice, hard laugh. Obviously she is laughing way to hard for as minor a joke, if you want to call it that, she said. She pauses to wipe her eyes, the wristband of the Planks becoming visible for a moment before she leans back and simply sighs.
