From what he could tell, talking would not get him in anything other than trouble until he at least knew fully what was going on here. He had previously thought he had understood, but the appearance of several other individuals as well as the rather spontaneous grope only himself and- he assumed- the guard saw. Forett listened in further, deciding that this rather full of herself mage was not really someone he could see himself working for. Just as he was about to make his leave, Malakus spoke up again. [color=9e0b0f]"And if it's working you're looking for, then I do have a quest in mind. Those interested should come with me."[/color] Work. That is what Forett was looking for. And from a guard? Unless it is standing on some street corner or cleaning horse stalls, it should hold something within the boundaries of Forett’s expertise… or he hoped it would. [color=662d91]“That knight is truly well worth hearing out, Forett.”[/color] Verisa’s calm voice spoke in his head. [color=2e3192]“How would you figure?”[/color] He spoke back over the bond. [color=662d91]“He did not falter despite the powers of the mage nor the numbers of the group he confronted. He is a brave man, a man who stands for his cause.”[/color] She spoke back, which made Forett visibly smile regardless of those around him. Verisa’s outlooks on strangers always amused him. Either she makes no comment, explains why she would kill them, or tells Forett he should attempt to befriend them. Of course there are the odd ball meetings he has had in the past, however none of that was really important at the moment. What was important was this guard had a quest! Forett followed the guard without hesitation. His stride was true and he walked with what seemed to be some purpose despite the rather strange smile on his face. He looked like a man with little troubles. After entering the Tavern and following Malakus Forett would wait inside the private room he rented to make sure that everyone else had an available seat. Forett was nothing if not polite… [@ZekariVoblis] [@Lucius Cypher] [@Noodles] [@Lunarlors34]
