[QUOTE="moritheil, post: 4169900, member: 30610"] Rosa nods. "I suppose you might call it one of the illusions of civilization - and illusions can be quite powerful. Very well, lead on." She keeps an eye out during Hightower's interrogation but does not participate. (Rosa wouldn't really know about Hightower's own experiences, but with her background she can readily grasp the concept that the rules of civilization are themselves tools of control to produce a stable society. While she might personally feel that something like this is unpleasant, it could be vital for the team's survival and she won't make an issue of Hightower's methods if they might produce results. She's also hot, uncomfortable, and frustrated after trudging through the jungle and being attacked without warning by zealous lizardfolk.) When the captive passes out again in the forest, she addresses Hightower. "We may have to stop this in the interests of time and get moving soon. Should we leave him alive, and maybe break his legs so he can't follow or warn others, or would it be more appropriate to kill him? He seems to be from a warrior culture and wouldn't take being a cripple too well, but then, nothing says we have to be nice and play along with what he would want." She pauses. "Maybe it would go over better with the others if we asked them what they think rather than just doing it." [/QUOTE]
