Are
Not able to get a single word in between the excited boy's story, stories? Are just smiled and offered encouraging nods and surprised noises. "Truly a skald this one, if he fights with half the fire he tells a story with he will be have stones risen in his name before the first snow." he said and patted the boy on the back.
A shade of the smile still lingered as they veered into more serious subject matters, but the eyes betrayed fears. One of the lands, not fond of strangers. How familiar. He snorted at the acerbic thought, very well versed in the hostility of townfolk not wanting anything to do with outsiders. He should, as he had been one to dole it out before.
"I know the kind. Far too well as a matter of fact, but I'll keep that in mind." Are said and pursed his lips, a moment was enough to push the worry over the edge. "'Careful'? As to keep the axe nearby or to hold one's tongue?" he finally asked, not sure he wanted to know the answer. Afraid it might douse what hope Jigano had lit with the talk of a fellow craftsman.
