"Uhm," K'ile wasn't sure what K'nahli was thanking him for, but wasn't one to turn down credit. "No problem." He was truthfully surprised K'mih had taken his advice, but then women did respond well to a little smile every now and then, didn't they?
Turning to face K'nahli, the Tia said, "Keep your bow on you for a quick second," and pulled an arrow against the string of his own. Around this point K'ile was wishing he had a better idea of how to use his bow, or that he'd brought his spear. His fingers couldn't decide where to settle in the shaft as they strained against the bowstring, but his nose picked out where to aim.
Pointing his arrow off to one side, he said, "Try not to shoot your father."
