"Oh! Of course!" He declared in a much more cheerful tone. Indeed, he was parched, and hungry! He hadn't had a really fulfilling meal in a while, and drink had been scarce lately!
So hungry...

Of course, the door wasn't high enough to fit both, so he picked her up from his shoulder with extreme care, making sure to not hurt the sword in any way and held her much like one would hold a bride. His hold was gentle, but the strength was real. No matter how you looked at it, he would never drop her.
"Salutations!" He called out. With that out of the way, he stepped in without shame or restraint like it was his own house. However, it seemed no one was there.
"OH my, it seems no one is here." He noted.
