Micah truly did appreciate Retili not prying further into the story and the others not making a large fuss of his origins visibly made the elf relax. He near enough blurted out a word of gratitude, but Laverne being fussy very quickly took his attention away. "Such a displeased lady you are." He hummed to himself, still smiling regardless of the mare's uncooperative nature. [Educated F - Animal Handling F] He did anticipate Laverne not wanting to move much, so he had gotten some scraps of apples, carrots, etc from the tavern kitchen, things that would otherwise be thrown to pigs. Micah had long since learned that more often than not, positive reinforcement worked on most creatures. When the mare listened and walked quietly, she would get a small treat in praise.
Although he didn't interject into the groups' caution about the shepherd, Micah focused on the livestock [Educated F]. He did his best to take note of their condition and behavior, trying to assess if the animals' behavior could give him any worthwhile clues. Although he didn't share the extreme caution the rest of the group did, the distance of the flock from the safety of the town indeed was odd. He was aware of practices in his previous world where herds of cows would be allowed free range of a whole mountain side, only to obediently return home at the sound of their handler calling for them.. but in most cases it was in areas with no risk of predation. "Pardon my asking, since I've only been here for a couple of days.. is it safe to assume the area is prone to predators?" He asked, glancing at Amanda in particular due to her voicing her confusion.
