[Lord Windos]

Ah... If Ventus WAS upset, he did not show that on the outside. in fact, someone who was s stranger to him would most likely never realize. He also seemed to be completely innocent about what was her first assumption why he was somewhat agitated. Neat! If she won't tell him, he'll never know. ... Dear, say, why are you making such a big deal about that? Eh... Be quiet. It happened unconsciously.

Good thing Fennekin did not carry any golden items. Maybe it was the yellowish fur that attraced the bat... Ah, the old tale of the dragon harboring treasures.

Oh, he wanted to help on the herb-search! Interesting... While he apprearantly detests anything that had to do with magic - better not tell that the herbs she currently posessed are appearantly connected with ancient Fairy-Pokemon - he was fine, if not eager, for mystical things. Smoking lavender incines... However, she gladly accepted his offer. "Sure thing! I can tell you a little mreo about the herb lore and what I found out recently on the way, if you'd like to know. We can go as soon as your mercenary is ready, as Nathan suggested."

Again, he briefly picked up that second pattern of emotion, and this time it felt curiously admonishing. Tilting his head at Shiva, he looked somewhat intrigued at what was he observing. 'I haven't seen such a phenomena since Vincent, but that man had FAR more deepseated problems that I could faintly detect than this young lass ever will have. Just what is causing that within her, though,' Ventus though, giving Shiva a ponderous look for a moment, before nodding at her answer.

"You have my gratitude, Shiva! I've always been interested in plant lore because of my mother's job and hobbies. She always tried to use natural treatments of herbs or spice to cure any illness we had before going to a doctor, so you could say my interest stems from there. After all, if you can use nature's bounty to correct any problems with yourself, why rely on modern medicine?" Ven said, giving the woman a radiant smile for her generosity. She's always been so kind and perceptive of his interest, and he hopes they have been the same as well!

"If you want, we can head over to the Challenger's Board and see Valder finish his match. I lost a couple battles there, which has set me back quite a bit in paying of my fine to the Cheshire League. $625 is no too much normally, but it is when you need $3000 by 7 days, its a more poultry than not. Bastards...isn't a mark against my record punishment enough, without having to drain my bank account dry?" Needless to say, the researcher was still quite bitter over his current standing, despite his repentant attitude towards Lumen now.
