Well, at least it's better

Artorias' stunned speechlessness didn't go completely unnoticed by her, but luckily for him his charismatic raven stole the show so she wasn't given too much of a chance to consider the strange reaction. She grinned at the very proper introduction Corbin gave, even going so far as to call him 'Master Artorias'. She wondered how Marigold might respond if she was instructed to call her Madam Briar or something equally as pretentious... she was pretty sure the antlered fox would just bite her nose in response. She was about to respond to the avian's question when Artorias answered for her, explaining that their families were close. She supposed that was the long and short of it so she didn't object, just giving a small nod to confirm.

She raised a brow at the blue furred young man as his obvious shocked, distracted state, wondering what had caught him so off guard. Sure, she was pretty far from home all things considered, but to get so flustered for just that? She didn't question it too much though and just assumed that's all it was since his next question centered around how she had ended up here in the first place. "Well the last time I checked I didn't have wings like your friend here, so I'm going to assume I walked here," she replied with glimmer of amusement in her turquoise gaze, giving him a grin. Tossing her head toward the shore she eventually added, "If you really must know, there's a trail of islands leading off of Ashen's archipelago that lead right to the upper part of Auster. It's a nice little short cut to get down here without going all the way over to the bifrost."

When she looked back to Artorias again, she noticed the cuts on his cheek that seemed to just be beginning to heal. Her brows lifted with interest and she trotted closer, disregarding any personal space as she leaned in close to his cheek and examined the wound more closely. "Something got you pretty good, huh? What did you get into a fight with?" She didn't touch him, but she did get very, very close to get a really good look at the cuts. They looked like something her brother Azure would have done with his big, mutated bear paws, but she couldn't imagine him coming down this way for any reason and even beyond that why would he claw Artorias in the face?
