"Yeah, true.." he peers at her intently before pressing on. "If you ever did want to go anywhere, I could come too.. and make sure you do come back. And stay safe while out there," he added because he could suspect the Dragon's reputation was bound to precede them soon, and he didn't trust any of their neighbors anyway.

"There is also a swampy area south of here that might be worth looking into. I would hazard a guess that it might have some variety," he reasoned. Of course he hadn't been there in a while, so it was all just speculation. Even the Maplewood and its surrounding areas could potentially provide something of interest too.
