He was able to hear the light whisper in her voice, however it was nothing he knew himself. After all, he worked hard on learning the Trade Language and his work that he didn't spend much else on other tongues. And even then, it did not sound connected to Elvish, Orc, or Dwarf tongue either… Then again, not knowing the language also meant he did not pay much mind to paying attention to what was even said. If he needed to speak with someone, there was the trade language. If not, it was rarely trouble to find someone who could translate.

When asked about it, Douken merely shrugged it off, stating, "A contractor wanted me to seek out a decent region of the forest for wood. The massive trees mean many would not be cut down, but he did not trust what laid on the outer edges. Its almost like he wants his collectors to vanish or something." The last bit was muttered though as he got a bit off tangent, though quick to get back on track. "However, he rests within another city, about a day's walk, and I still got good enough time on the contract before I need to report back, so the rush is not necessary. Besides, I think getting a moment to enjoy ourselves after that attack is what we need, right?" His ears did catch her muttering, but he figured it was best not to bring it up. At least, not until she felt comfortable to talk about it.
His stomach was quicker to answer and his mouth was, rumbling away for attention before he found himself chuckling. "Well, that would be my answer. You know, since I picked out what we had for breakfast during our last meet, why don't you choose dinner?"
