✠ “Sounds dangerous," he commented, thumbing his chin thoughtfully. Then again, Vaan clearly wasn’t from this area, so right now, anything to him might be ‘too far off to tell’. Ingus looked back at him and nodded, a reassuring smile plastered on his face. “Let’s just keep our guards up, aye?”
The young knight opened his satchel and began to sift through the contents, mumbling an audible ‘excuse me’ at the young Dalmascan. When he had failed to find what he was looking for, he looked up at Vaan, eyes knit in disappointment. “I’m afraid I’ve no spare maps with me…”
Dangerous… it was a substantial size, but even if it had been the size of a hare, supposed he should hold some caution, at least more than usual, for the sake of his own newness with the area. Watching Ingus rummage through his bag’s contents, his mind wandered to the temptation of what value the loot from it could hold in his own land.
“That’s a shame…”
Which it was.
Only, he had already made up his mind to pursue the creature. Vaan let out a laugh before flashing a smile at the other, “I’ll just have to use my sense of direction then.”
✠ A small frown made its way to his lips. He had truly hoped that he had not let the other man down; in terms of not seeing what he saw, anyway. With a nod, he took Vaan’s hand and shook it, “A pleasure to meet you, Sir Vaan. My name is Ingus.”
”If it is possible, may I request of you to tell me what you have seen?” he mused, a small smile making its way on his lips. “Perhaps it was I who did not see things clearly. Or rather, notice things.”
“Nice to meetcha too,” Vaan smiled as he shook the other’s hand, making note of the Ingus’s name coming to pass. Despite what flicker of displeasure had shown prior, it would seem that gentleman had moved on to hearing about what exactly had appeared.
It was kinda large, but it didn't seem too threatening. Unfamiliar with the local fauna and still unassured by what time he had spent gawking at it, Vaan attempted to describe what exactly he had seen. “I think it might have been a beast of some kind, but it was kind of too far off to tell.”
✠ “Ah, what was what, sir?” The blond knight turned his head to the side, looking for whatever object may catch his attention.
…and he only ended up looking longer than he should have. He looked back at Vaan, who still seemed to be looking at whatever was behind him. “Forgive me, sir, but I do not see anything odd. Perhaps your eyes are just playing tricks on you?”
“but-“, just as he was about to contest about the object, Vaan realized that he had just met the guy, and a debate about this might not be the best. Maybe he was just seeing things after all… it wouldn’t be the first time. Though, the thing did seem rather out of place…
“You’re right. I probably drank too many potions or something…“Biting his lip, he looked to change the subject. ”I’m Vaan by the way, “ he stated, reaching out his hand.
