[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 6636887, member: 11520"] The old wizard blinks at the half-orc in some consternation. [COLOR="#00FF00"]"I hope my words did not offend your companion. I am often blunt in my assessment of things. The objective scholar in me no doubt. I do not judge though, no sir. A true scholar only observes and reports and leaves judgement to the gods. As for my assessment of you, well that may appear almost mystical to the untrained eye, but for an observer such as myself it is simplicity I assure you. There is a certain crinkling of the skin about the eyes that comes from long hours staring at faded manuscripts as well as tell tale calluses on the fingers and a tiny ink stain here and there. These things they do speak volumes. That coupled with the fact that your companion did not seem the type to wander into a shop such as mine of his own accord. No, I quickly gathered that while he did the talking you must have been the impetus for the visit."[/COLOR] Vandim must struggle not to glaze over at the long winded explanation and may feel a certain sympathy for the students in the other room who must endure this man's excessive verbiage on a regular basis.
