Sun Mote Copse i put them in the conference room.

Penn was quickly falling into the black hole that was feeling sorry for himself, so he said nothing when the girl said she'd look out for him anyway to see that he was safe. He didn't really want to care, though his heart try to make it clear to him that he really didn't have any choice in the matter. That was fine though; Penn would just ignore the stupid thing.

"Firebirds," he answered, glad for the distraction, "The forest is Sun Mote Copse." He paused thoughtfully, his lips pursed as he frowned at her for a few extra seconds before giving a nonchalant shrug, "I could put in a good word for you, if you wanted." Not that he cared about that either. It would be kinda cool, though. Assuming she was worth anything to them. He wasn't quite proficient enough at this border patrol thing yet to know to ask after her worthiness, so he just glanced sidelong at her to see if she found that to be at all impressive that his opinion of her would matter to their leadership.
