Sure he knew that he'd have to slow his pace with the woman to keep up. But he doubted the steed he traveled with would mind at all. 'What have you gotten yourself into this time' He sighed a little after paying for the supplies and taking a few of the sacks with him as he walked outside. The shire walked up to him and seemed use to this treatment as it turned it's side to him and stood there.. waiting.

In truth he didn't mean to be that harsh with the woman, but he needed to lay out group rules for her to follow. She could chat all she liked but there was no promise that he'd answer. For a human he seemed different as if his will to live was broken. A soul-less human was probably something that should be left alone no will to live meant he had no fear of death.

After the supplies were fixed to the over-sized horse he double checked the ropes before he was satisfied. Patting the horse on the side of the neck it looked at him as if it expected something. Rolling his eyes he finally did give in and gave the beast a sugar cube. It would seem there was hope still for this stranger to regain his humanity.

He walked over to where the woman and her horse were, being followed by the shire. Stopping a few feet from her he cleared his throat. "If your ready we're going now, we'll make a few good miles before dark falls." His tone was a little less commanding this time around, he needed to remember he wasn't in the same position as he was before. There was no point in trying to push a civilian like he did his men.

Once he was done talking he quickly hosted himself up into the saddle of the horse and waited for her to do the same. He seemed to be looking over the horse maybe thinking he was sorry for the creature having to carry that much. But really he was seeing how far he thought he could push it without over working the animal.
