"Uh, hi...who the heck are you?" said Bob, wearily shaking the man's hand.
"Ah, I apologize. My name is Eklu. Myself and Indigo River here atteneded the Gielenor Academy. We were both valedictorians of our classes." said Eklu. Then he seemed to realize he was monologuing, and changed the subject. "Who's that fellow over there, twirling about with the dagger?"
"Oh, that's just Zac, our mindless patsy. Don't worry about him, unless you get too close while he has his dagger out..." said Bob. Indigo seemed to pick up what Bob meant, and went over to Zac and took the dagger off of him.
"Hey Eklu, we could always use new people in our little adventuring crew. How about you join us?" said Bob. He really didn't care for the guy, but he figured he might be of use in the future. If he could fight, he could be used as a diversion.
"I do not know, Bob. I have a lot of armor left to make..Oh heck with it. Sure I'll join you!" said Eklu cheerily. He gave Bob a hearty pat on the back.
"Indigo! Did you hear the good news? I am to join you three in your quests!" shouted Eklu at Indigo, who was trying to wrestle Zac away from an overzealous duck.
"You stupid duck! Why, if I had my dagger I'd put you on the table as dinner! Worthless water fowl, I have more strength in my little toe than you do in your whole worthless feathered body!" screamed Zac at the duck, while fighting with all his considerable might against Indigo to get at the duck.
"Wow, I think those are the biggest words I've ever heard outta this dunce's mouth!" yelled Indigo at Bob and Eklu.
"Well, perhaps we could put him to good use. Maybe we could hitch Zac up to a cart and have him tow us and our gear?" proposed Eklu.
"Well, I was thinking the same thing. Though, you don't strike me as the sort who would think about that kind of stuff though, Eklu." replied Bob.
"Haha, my boy you have just barely gotten to know me!" Eklu said with a wink.
