Crystal's words seemed to have sped him up a bit. She was glad since this meant she could fly a bit faster. Soon he reached for some food and offered her some. She declined though. She wasn't really that hungry.
After a bit more traveling without saying anything she decided to ask him something. "What were you doing out here anyway?" she asked. She was curious as to how he ended up in the predicament she had found him in.

Jenson thought for a couple moments and then answered her. "Hmm, what am I doing out here?" He repeated. His hand moved up to rest against his chin. "Avoiding civilization I suppose, looking for answers, as well." He stood looking thoughtful for a couple moments, and then continued to walk. "It's all the blasted crystal's fault, and my own I suppose, for not being able to defeat the demon before it came to this."
Jenson realized he was only giving enough details away to show that he believed he was doing something he felt right, but he would still leave the listener clueless as to what the crystal was, what it contained, or what he intended to do with it. "And what were you doing out here?" He inquired. "If you don't mind my asking, of course." Jenson turned his face to look at her, glad he'd dodged further explanation for now.

Crystal wondered what he meant by it being the crystal's fault. And she also wondered why he was avoiding civilization. But since he didn't really elebarate she figured Jenson didn't want to talk about it.
He then asked about why she was out here. She smiled and said, "Just seeing the sights. Travelling around and enjoying the world" She made that sound maybe a bit too carefree, but that's what she was doing.

Jenson seemed lost in thought yet again, when suddenly he decided it would be a good time to speak. "Have you ever met anyone during your travels who was knowledgeable with any sort of enchanting or magic? I think that would be the best sort of person for me to go to right now." Jenson concluded. If he could find someone who knew even a little about the crystal, then he would have an advantage over the blasted demons, and maybe even be able to find a way to destroy the stone without releasing it's captive.
"I'm thinking of turning towards the elves, since they live for long periods of time, their likely bound to have a very good collection of histories, maybe something there is applicable towards this stone." He said. The town came into view from the ground, and as the neared it, he pulled his cloak about him, putting the tip of the staff on the inside - if demons came it'd be best if they couldn't get it's exact location from civilians who'd seen him walking through, yet at the same time it might be better if they went straight for him...he couldn't decide.

Crystal had been looking at they're surrondings enjoying the sights til Jenson spoke up again. "Have I met anyone knowledgeable in magic?" she repeated. She thought it over. "Well, we angels are pretty knowledgeable. They might know a thing or two about your stone" she suggested. She then added, "Though you do have a point about the elves"
She then noticed they were almost to the village. "Oh good," she said. "Now we can get someone to help heal your wound"

"I've decided, I'll head towards the elves first, and then turn towards the angels. Whatever I can't find in one place, I'm bound to find in the other." Jenson concluded. He was walking faster than earlier, but the walk was stuff, his back almost completely straight now, so that the cut wouldn't continuously open. He looked even more exhausted than when he'd first encountered the demons.
"I'll be fine from here, if you have somewhere else to be, I'm not trying to get rid of you, but I will get attacked again at some point - probably soon. It might be best to be farther from me rather than closer." Jenson spoke, taking a glance behind him for a moment. He winced from the simple movement but continued walking anyways.

Crystal frowned a bit. "You sure?" she asked him. She wanted to help him at least find someone. "Let me at least stick around to make sure the wound is healed." she told him.
She didn't really have anywhere to be anyway. All she was doing was just travelling and seeing the world. She could take a break to make sure this man got the help he needed.
