yet my blood renders me a King
Sah was honestly impressed that Paige's lungs held enough air for her to throw out so many questions without taking a breath. He'd have passed out most likely. Trying to keep track of her questions and the order that she asked them, the Outlander tried to answer them all.
"Yes I live in Halo. No, Lilly and I live in a nice house made of stone and wood. It's very cozy." Sah laughed as he answered the next one. "No. I'm not friends with bears, though I would be if I could. Bears and ursurs generally want to be left alone, so I leave them alone."The questions about hunting surprised him more then they should have. Paige mentioned that she wanted to be an adventurer, so of course she had some level of curiosity about hunting. "I don't use arrows. I use my magic and my sword. But many people who do use arrows make their own. Or they let a weaponsmith make them for them."
As for tracking, Sah paused. He pointed at a small trail to their side. "See that bit of grass? How it's a little more bent then the others?" He got closer and gestured for Paige to follow him. Just as he thought there were other traces. Crouching down and running a hand over one of the blades of grass, he pointed at little incisions on it. "See this? An animal has been through here and was chewing on the grass. I bet if we look at the ground we'll see some prints." Sure enough, looking at the ground along the disturbed grass there were tiny pawprints, a rabbit's. "It's a rabbit. You can tell by the shape of the prints and the distance between them." Sah pointed out before he stood back up and dusted off his pants. "See? That's how I track. You look for what's been left behind or changed."
Impromptu lesson over, Sah continued to lead them to Torchline as he addressed her last question. "Yes, sometimes people do hire me to hunt an animal. Other times I just go hunting and then sell what I caught." her comment about his navigating skills had him playfully sticking his tongue out at her. "I told you I could."
