"I see."
Nae dropped from the shelf to the ground silently and paused there squatting on the floor in thought, mostly ignoring whatever else the woman droned on about once she had identified the plant, or offered up what little she knew. That one tip was plenty to give Nae cause to reflect deeply on it. "Hn. Viridos. So far from home little one..."
She was still talking when he rose from the floor and with an absent wave of his hand he pointed to the jar in question. "Fine. I'll buy that if it will get you to shut up. Otris?" The tall human appeared in the doorway seconds after his name was called, waiting for just such a time.
"You summoned me, sir?" The noise from the streets was getting louder and it increased when the door opened as the man entered.
"Mortal indeed, " Nae cooed, casting a glance at Arania and thinking of the games going on right then. Otris waited patiently in front of him, eyes locked on Nae, well used to waiting on the odd little male. "Pay her whatever she requires for a sample from that jar up there, and fetch it down." As Otris did just that, Nae continued on. "To bad you didn't share all that resolve of staying here sooner. It may have saved your breath, my ears and K'jol a good ten minutes. Hn?"
Instead of reclaiming his perch on her counter he chose a table like any civilized troll would.. actually on the table, each foot planted on the back of a chair, while waiting for the transaction to be made. When it was so, Otris exited the shop leaving Nae staring at Arania carefully.
"Hn... You will have to do. Though you may not like it." he mumbled this in his native tongue, but then clasped his hands, narrowed his eyes, smiled and raised his voice to an audible level speaking so she would again understand him. "My plans have changed. And I do have a request or two of you. You are skilled at concocting various tinctures and what not, how are you at the opposite? Can you examine something already combined to determined it's individual parts? And would you be opposed to traveling from here, so long as your safety was guaranteed, as much as reasonable and within my power?"
