"That's awful," Emily responded to his being sick, though she did remember Merri having a habit of being a bit of a hypochondriac. This was kept quiet, as Merri was still talking and it wasn't necessarily a topic that was brought up. However, she wasn't aware of what this "jungle fever" was. She'd heard of another type and it didn't have to do with any sort of sickness at all. Interesting...
Emily's eyes widened, "A tomb? Was it...still inhabited?" She looked surprised and wondered what they were seeking there. Buried treasure of some sort, minerals or some sort of resource, or was this captain just seeking adventure, which also meant he was seeking for trouble where he needn't look. Her lips pressed together tightly and then smile pulled into a smile as Merri said he couldn't go on all the adventures.
"Well, perhaps it is safer for you not to go on some," she said, "though I suppose with the undead attacking here as well, you are having your own adventures."
