Pausing as Maea said some prayers over the dead manta, Saiden bowed his head respectfully. However, he was clearly glad to be moving on. There were animals here he was sure she'd never heard of, let alone seen. And he'd already risked his own skin more times than he cared to today.
As she almost pathetically asked how she could possibly make it up to him, he rolled his eyes, glad she couldn't see the movement considering he was in front of her. "Maybe you can't. Ever consider that?" The words came out idly, as if he wasn't bothered by her insistence that he accept her apology. "Just don't die before I come to collect from you, alright?" He continued to hobble past the bands of rainbow colors.
