Did...nobody hear her? Or...or did noone want to come with her? Yingmei began to fidget uncomfortably as it looked like, to her at least, she had either been unheard over the raucous singing of a musician that spoke up shortly after she did, or she had just been flat out ignored by everyone except Akitsugu and a man named...Brom, she thought? She supposed he was right. They really should focus on what they immediately needed.

...which meant in turn, she was rather useless right now wasn't she? Wasn't like she would be any good in a fight. Probably. She'd be more of a damsel in distress then some valiant warrior.

[b]"Mmngh..."[/b] Yingmei grumbled in frustration. Not over being upset at what everyone else was doing, but rather her own perceived inability to be immediately helpful. There was nothing for it really, so all she could do was clutch her hoe and decline Akitsugu's offer. [b]"T-thank you Akitsugu, but uhm, I wouldn't want you all to make a detour just for me, ahah..."[/b] She'd give a little nervous chuckle. [b]"I-its fine! I-I'm sure there won't be anything scary out there...like...goblins..or...bears...wolves...[sub]a divine beast of judgement hunting sinners[/sub]...a-ahemn."[/b] She'd clear her throat. [b]"You'll have your hands full anyways...I can look at the fields...maybe I'll find something! A-and I'll get first choice of any house near there, too, eheh."[/b]

Not that she could stop him from actually going on that detour anyways...

She had to think positively, really. Perhaps the Gods will grant her good fortune? She certainly would pray for it as she would start moving towards the southwestern part of the village to look at those fields.
