"My friend was a healer. It was fitting for him. He went back to sleep." He sounds just a little more sad when he says that, like he's tired, but he keeps up the conversation. "You're selling yourself too short, uh...girl." Did he ever ask for her name? "I'm sure your friends rely on you in a pinch."

He's still impressed by her nonexistent abilities, so he attempts to be comforting. He's watching her more closely now instead of just walking ahead, actually paying attention to her.
