Of course! If you think there's something we can find here that will help us, then I'd love to join you in your search. We still have a while before we get to our next destination, anyway.

[He looked back at the wraiths hovering far from them and frowned before his expression turned serious.]

I'll watch your back. That way you don't have to worry about the wraiths so much!

[His serious expression softened again when he turned to look back at the teen and he offered him a warm smile.]

Lead the way. I'll follow.
