Zork shrugs, "OK big guy, I wasn't planning a horse race, I can wait, just let me know what you decide when you're ready."
Noticing Emily has been quiet for a long while he teases Gell by saying, "Emily is rather quiet, what did you say to her - many a man will like to know how to keep women this quiet." He half laughs.

"I think we have seen they are just camping," Durgan says. "These people mean nobody ill will. Zork? Gell? Are we all moving up?"
"Let's ride up, and hail them. If they attack, we can ride back here to Gell. You coming Zork?" Durgan asks as he kicks his horse into a slow walk.
"Wouldn't that be cowardly? If they attack we attack back!" Says Zork without fear. "I had originally suggested ridding alone, that way you can stay here protected by the serenity of this hill." He says with some level of insistance. "But its up to you."
Gell frowns at Zork's words and offers up a quiet prayer to Elhonna to watch over the reckless warrior. Hopefully Fate will prove Gell's caution misplaced.
Out of Character: Is the AC on Zork's character sheet correct? Chainmail should give you AC5, making you considerably harder to hit!
