Kaladin chuckled Darkly his mood improving slightly thanks to the music and the alcohol. "The fun would be in keeping your head, most loner types wouldn't have been nearly as hospitable as I've been. Especially to a pretty lass such as yourself. " he chewed on his tongue for a moment. "Unless of course you consider being drugged and raped a hospitality" he added as an afterthought. "As I've said, there's a reason people avoid men like me."
Whether the story she told him was the truth or some concocted lie on her part mattered very little to Kaladin at the moment. It really didn't matter much to him where she came from despite his interest in her escape. She was here now and that's what mattered. "Ah if only I had known I was in the presence of a princess!" He made a fist over his heart and gave a small half bow that was meant more to be mocking then respectful. "I knew a princess once, kinda like you actually." He said taking another swig from his bottle but not elaborating any further.
"How do you know that you truly are the only one from your world then princess? After all you didn't know i existed before what? An hour ago? Your spurned husband could very well have sent some bounty hunter or their like to come fetch you and bring you back. Hell, the good old prince may even be here himself" Kaladin imagined the population within their little bubble wouldn't have been very big, perhaps a hundred or two but still. If Rexanna had shown up here then who's to say that someone else hadn't?
He watched her trace one delicate finger across the glass rim of her drink. " I do better being alone, less people get hurt that way."
