Cordelia blinked as the creatures seemed to... stop. There was no other word for it. They just stopped coming closer. Blinking again, she turned toward Gandalf, clearly impressed. Smiling - this time her typical 'thousand watt smile' - she lowered her sword and replied, "Thanks. I learned from someone with a lot of experience."
One more glance to make certain the creatures really had stopped attacking and she motioned to the doors of the Hyperion. "Well, since you seem to have taken care of things out here, how about I give you the tour? Then we can get you set up with a room, if you're still interested in joining us."
