(your fine :P)

He had already started moving forward when she had asked her odd question. Though from the area he guessed they didn't commonly see armored troops or any mentions of war for that matter. Really he wasn't annoyed he laughed instead out of the oddity of it. "It's a war steed, they are all trained in this manner... a knight has to be able to rely on his steed as a extension of himself." He didn't go into details aside from that, but each knight did have to train his own steed so the beast would know who it's master was.

He had noticed her over burdened steed, and the weapon she had attached to him as well. Though he hardly thought she'd need such a thing while she was in his company. But he didn't know much about her either.. there must be a reason. The village seemed overjoyed that she was leaving the town. Sure the mutters gave him a few clues but he wasn't sure how reliable the information was.

Once they were a few miles outside of the town he finally spoke again, he had kept his weapon in hand, seemingly use to this form of travel. "you said you had no destination in mind.. why bother traveling. Let alone to the north one of the harshest regions in the lands." He didn't really care if she answered him or if what she said was the truth but it was something that his mind had been pondering.

Though it was odd, the further they got from the village the less snow there was in the area, it was like the snow had just been around the town. Was that even possible? It was the middle of summer wasn't it? Surely his travels hadn't changed the seasons even in his dazed state. Maybe some of the remarks from the villagers were true about this woman.. He wasn't one to judge someone though so he'd wait to see for himself.
