Parn's expression visibly softened in front of her. His intentions were not to mock her, he never desired to make a fool of anyone, he didn't have it in him to do that. Let alone to a woman. A simple smile curled at the edge of his lips as exchanged an honest glance with her.

"Not everyone is out to cheat the innocent." Meaning, he didn't deny that selfish people existed, but that this man before her just wasn't one of them. He happened to be a people person, and was good in public relations. Part of what he did, was make sure the party had a high morale, without it many battles would be lost.

"I apologize if I may have offended you." Being as compassionate as he was, Parn merely wanted to help. Nothing more. He offered her a light, chivalrous bow. "My name is Parn of Kanon, from Lodoss." A formal greeting, though not overly so. He would mention his origin every so often to see if he could find anyone who recognized it. The teen had yet to encounter one of his companions.

He raised from his stance and gestured to his moogle. "This is Alida, my newest companion." He's important to Parn now. Believe it or not! "Nice to meet you, kupo!" Alida happily joined in.
