Rillian was rather surprised by the man's offer. She hesitated a moment, not sure if she could trust a complete stranger from an altogether different world than the one she knew. She'd always had a sense for people, though, and Rillian didn't think he intended her any harm. So she gave him another polite bow and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I will accept your offer of hospitality for the night."
She wasn't exactly sure what "filling in" entailed, as her mind could not put such words into a context she understood. But Rillian had questions, and she expected this was some sort of offer to address them. But where to start? Rillian had no concept of what this realm of existence was or what it might expect of her. Was it merely another realm of the Sun God where her pain and service were his expected boon for saving her from slavery? It seemed the sort of cruel joke that he would play on one of his priests.
"If you will lead the way, I sense that it would be best to be out of the forest before night falls," Rillian said. She had very minimal experience with the wilds outside of civilization, having grown up in the grand marvel that was the Marble City of Eng'ahli. However, her brief encounters with wildlife in the past few months had discouraged her from trusting such places.
