[QUOTE="Dawn Raven, post: 4568136, member: 80176"] A look of concern flits across the Gith’s face and she almost reaches out to steady the coughing old man. B[I][FONT=Arial Narrow]y Melora, what happened to this man?[/FONT][/I] She tilts her head slightly to the side and props it up on her hand, yellow eyes staring at him. I[I][FONT=Arial Narrow] prefer not to deal with things I don’t understand. Of course, that typically includes anything that’s going to eat the life from my bones. But earthly pains I’ve felt and seen enough of. [/FONT][/I] Still not speaking, the Gith’s eyes have an intense concentration as her mind wonders what to think of this wizard. Her eyes briefly narrow and her thoughts focus on two words: [I][FONT=Arial Narrow]He’s dangerous. He wouldn’t think twice about sacrificing anyone here to the darkness if he could get what he wanted. I wonder if he already has… His enervated form and irascible manner would definitely lead to noxious danger.[/FONT][/I] Les wonders briefly if she should respond as she truly wants to. She knew she was being obdurate, but the man’s choice of words had not helped. [I][FONT=Arial Narrow]I am not here to offer kindness. I am not here to help anyone here with their life’s choices beyond supporting them in any endeavors we are thrown together in. I am here to explore and to seek fortune. I am here to find my own way to my own goals but have no desire to share them with anyone here.[/FONT][/I] These words and more floated about her mind, burning with a desire to upbraid the old man. However, finally, she quiets them. She should say something, perhaps warn the others at the table about her conclusions. But she won’t. They can make their own assumptions. There was no reason to permeate presumption or continue this diatribe. [FONT=Century Gothic][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]I do not suppose to guess as to what you have endured in life.
