By the way, it's good that Mr. Fantastic Fox didn't show up near Vala'keer. You'd have to dodge a throwing axe, then a handful of knives, and then maybe another, 'cause fox pelts are treasured among Draconians. >:3
That means, Xander, watch your back around Vala'keer. He may stab you in the back for that pelt. He'll be eyeing you funny, even if you're not a human, even if you're an actual sentient creature.
