Obviously Ben could sense the power this armored stranger possessed. He had no real care as to who helped him achieve his goal, do long as the job was done. Sanguine was far too hot headed and ignorant to form any kind of plan. Ben figured the best way to handle this was to form a strategy. He was rather concerned that he hadn't been aware to any sign of the rune knights that the magic council had sent. Why wouldn't they have arrived yet? What were they of all people waiting for. If anyone thought Sanguine showed little patience the council made her seem sloth like. Ben couldn't focus on that now, the boxes had all been buried and he began to pick his things up and get ready to move on, in pursuit of Sanguine. Before he did so he had to make sure this guy couldn't be of some user to the cause.

He turned to address the man in armor. The things he said and the way he spoke made Ben curious as to where he hailed. Having the first from his hands and trousers he looked up and address the gent in the helmet.
