[OOC: For the sake of facilitating "group-iness" we can assume that I am following Jack unless I indicate otherwise.]

Erdu listened calmly, focusing himself on the words he was hearing rather than their meaning. The very thought of such a wonderful thing stirred a deep exhilaration inside of him that somehow echoed with familiarity, yet left him delighted with astonishment. Though it was difficult, he managed to remain expressionless as he listened, only nodding in agreement as the invitation was given. Though he was sure the specific principles that such a craft operated under would be beyond him, the idea of seeing land from up in the sky dogged him with intrigue.

Upon hearing of the companion of Jack under his protection, a soberness came over Erdu like a ripple on a still pond. If there was a female who was in fact in need, then she would inevitably find herself in some trouble. Whether or not this captain and his associates could handle the trouble was irrelevant. The only truth was need, and specifically a need that he could answer. "Every void exists to be filled," he thought to himself as he recited one of the foundational principles he had been taught by the Master.

Also, Erdu thought to himself as he said a quiet "thank you," and walked through the door, trouble almost always meant fighting and he had not quite yet had his fill for the day. With a pleasantly calm demeanor, he entered and then waited for Captain Jack to follow, patiently expecting that moment when he would be required.
