Jeris sat there, his mouth slightly agape as Linette spun her captivating tale of danger, heroism, and....opo-opo's.  After she finished speaking and shot Muin a look Jeris simply shook his head, pausing to take another drink of his mug.  "Looks and Humility....boys you ran into quite the gem!"  He held his hand up to silence any sort of remark and nodded.  "No no, it's alright, I understand.  Pride can be a vice for certain, but no doubt this threat was something far more epic in scale.  A primordial perhaps!?  A giant Opo-opo that would cause even the relentless war machine of the Empire to pause in it's advance.  And there stood the three of you, a final bastion of hope for Gridania against this malevolent threat.  With naught but your mastery of the Aether, Muin's unparalleled resourcefulness, even turning a mundane vegetable into an instrument of destruction~!"  You bet he picked up on that subtle guilty waver beneath Linette's hellish gaze.  "And Soji's legendary mastery of the spear having taken all this time to finally recover from such an ordeal...!"  He had to work in Soji's weapon maintenance from earlier after all.  "Truly, I am honored."  Naturally a sheepish grin snuck out as he teased her, hopefully it would give all three of them a good laugh regardless.
When Soji inquired further on her arrival to Hyrstmill, Jeris simply snapped a finger, pointing to Soji as he tilted his mug back for another drink, to indicate his support of the proposed question. Â He was rather enjoying this banter.Â
