As the girl sat up on the leaf-covered ground and confessed that she had provoked the tree, Braeden sighed softly and shook his head slightly. Stupid tree; now it had the poor girl blaming herself for its violent behaviour. That was no way to treat a lady!

"Are you sure you're okay? That was a pretty mean blow it gave you," said Braeden, still convinced the tree had purposely moved and pushed the girl (he didn't realize her response had been just playful). "I wouldn't mind accompanying you to the hospital wing," he added, now offering her a hand so she could get back up to her feet. "That is, if I remember the way back to the castle..." he added in a murmur with slightly furrowed brows.

Leave it up to Braeden to get lost in a one-way path.

Embracing the obvious call for self deprecating humor, Ivory laughed lightly still rubbing her head. "No, I think I'm okay. I'm sure the tree believes he got it worse. He was unsuspecting after all. Innocent bystander to my unobservant blundering." Then again she'd been unsuspecting too. Oh well, minor technicality. She was almost positive the blame fell on her. Although one could argue that the tree had in fact put itself in her way, considering her eyes had been closed and she'd have been none the wiser. But that odds of that...??

Accepting his hand gratefully as she let her ridiculous musing drift to the back of her mind, she let herself be helped up; To be completely honest impressed by his gallantry. "Just a bump and bruise I think. Nothing a little bruise remover paste and ice won't cure. Thanks though, I appreciate it." Good to know if it'd been serious she could count on this guy here to lead her to the Healer. Or well maybe not.

Not able to hold back a slight choked laugh at his murmured phrase, that's when she realized she hadn't exactly let go of the poor guy's hand. Releasing it quickly, she took a step back. A wobbly step back.

Her balance obviously still not entirely back, she leaned against the nearest tree trunk, which in fact happened to be the "culprit" tree. Giving it a little pat to attest to its stable uniform unmovable object-ness, she smiled as she tried (key word being tried here) to brush off the majority of leaves and small twigs that decorated her person. Of course, to no avail.

But where were her manners. Where were the pleasantries. Who was this guy? " Hi, by the way. I'm Ivory." Pointing to the obvious bump, on her head she gave a small grin. "The klutz as it would seem."
