Elphas is the first to recover from the momentary group surprise, and he strides forward to greet the newcomers. As he does so, he notices the papers in the furry man's hand. He calls out to the captain: "This man has his papers in order. And I'm sure that whatever Bok did to land himself in the stocks, he'll have ample opportunity to make it up to us on the journey to Greenville. After all, Xelenos teaches us that all deserve a chance to correct their missteps." He then smiles kindly at the furry man and attempts to gently take his arm. "Come, friend, we should get you sitting down. You've had a bit too much, I think."
