Bruno stopped his outburst and clutched his axe tightly to his chest. He understood the strange god Crocus, more so than any other person that has talked to him in a while. A small, sentient part of his brain hoped his motor and communication skills would increase now that he was spending time with talking beings.

He eyed the beeper on his belt. He would investigate, but he was too busy holding onto his axe.

He looked over at the man next to him, "Crocus" had called him Joe, or something like that. He couldn't quite tell.

Anyway, Joe seemed  to show some concern for Bruno, which he appreciated, so hopefully Joe would help the skeletal warrior and Bruno...
He was still not sure of what his ultimate goal was, but whatever it was, he was going to achieve it gloriously!

In the meantime, Bruno hunched down and scanned the room for something.
