He sounds sincere in that. Rael is struck for a moment by the implicit approval, that need to prove himself worthy of it all but roaring to life in his breast.

"Glad to be here." And he really was. He felt infinitely better when he could be useful, especially with everything going on lately, to say nothing of getting to fight alongside Gustavain. Especially at that consideration- he'd heard tell of the elezen's skill in battle, how easily he could shift between disciplines. The chance to see it was one he was definitely excited about.
Even if the sudden silence of the woods around them made him distinctly uneasy. He'd not spent much time in the woods before, but even he knew that dead quiet like this never meant anything good.
