Bard smiled as he turned his purple eyes, dancing with humor, back to the girl. "Perhaps I was," he allowed. He was certainly glad to see that she'd recovered from whatever had troubled her enough to joke. But it still seemed to be dragging on her mind, for her attention still seemed far away. Even had it not been his duty as a druid, Bard would have been inclined to help such a soft and lovely lady with her problems. So he cocked his head to the side, and sending her a gently encouraging smile said, "There seems tae be something troubling you. Would you care tae talk about it, me sweet colleen? Perhaps I may be able tae help in some way."
