"I haven't yet come across a magic for reducing body odor," the bard agreed with a friendly grin. "So I'm sure your efforts are appreciated!" He had no idea how clothes were cleaned in Halo, come to think of it; laundry must take ages to dry, though at least there was no shortage of water for heating to a boil!
Chulane's compliments to Numeria earned a smile, sad but appreciative as Jigano shook off the lingering bittersweet pang of loss for the world he would never see again, and all that he had left undone there. Any reply was interrupted by a game of pass-the-gryphlet, much to Isuma's delight, and the bard cuddled her close to his chest as he gave Chuy a grateful nod.
"She'll hold you to that promise," he warned with a smile. "As will I. I look forward to seeing you soon, and again after Deepfrost. Warm fires and easy roads til then, Chuy." He reached out to clasp Chulane's hand with firm, warm strength, hoping that the newcomer would survive the coming winter. With a final nod of courteous farewell the Provost gathered his cloak and headed out into the fading light.
The evening was fast approaching, and he had many miles yet to go before he slept.
