Archery was a skill the bard could stand to take up as well, he thought ruefully. As weak as he was even his animal forms couldn't do much damage in a tough spot. He was better suited for providing a distraction and dodging blows while someone else did the heavy lifting in a fight! Without his magic, trying to fight alone held little appeal to him, even with the swift precision of his rapier to lend his attacks a little more gravity.

Suspicion aside, he appreciated the kindness, and grinned back.

Ronin's question had him tilting his head in curiosity and he nodded as he stepped back to open space between them again for whatever the Guildmaster had in mind. "Of course! What do you have in mind?"
