Quenton concentrates for a moment while he half heartedly listens to Larkin. "I think we should take them at their word. Besides," he whispers, "their so small we can easily whip them if they start any trouble."
Eilzabeth responds by saying, "We seem to be surounded. Do we have any choice?"
Quinton searches the spirits of the little people that are all around him. Without much effort he notices a distinct lack of the foreboding, blood chilling feelings that nearly overcome him whenever he detects evil intent upon those around him.
He also notices that Flea is nowhere to be found. But then again, that does not surprise him.
