Josai quirked a brow. The way Ornin spoke was strange, and stranger still the way it went through the translator. Even so, she could tell he was at least excited for the battle to come. She did not know if that was incredibly good news or a bit concerning. They took confidence in Ornin, but only so much. He was an alien and they could not be sure of his real intentions. Even Dasaliz had warned them that it was risky.

Once swallowed in a hug, however, Josai's mind went far from any thought that this man was anything like a terrorist. She made a small groan from the quick embrace, all air released from her lungs. A pat came to his bicep. "I...I appreciate it, Ornin. Thank you." The woman was a little- more than a little, actually- surprised. "I will do my best to not...die. And perhaps we'll see one another again."
