He talks of the flowers and birds that come around and throws a few crumbs to some of the bolder ones that approach. A second round of tea comes out and he adds a pair of big crusty cookies with lots of nuts and dried fruit inside to small plates. Soon the tea and cookies are gone. At last he sets out a pair of tiny stemware cordial glasses and pulls out an ornate glass bottle. Pulling the cork with his teeth he pours a nip of reddish liquor that smells of hazelnuts. "I hope you don't mind if we allow tea time to spill over into the cocktail hour?" He drains the glass and smacks his lips with an 'ah'. He refills the little glass and prepares to sip this one. "Now Captain, since you've indulged an old man we'll get down to your business." He wipes his brow and considers a moment before going on. "Lad, if your a mind to duel with Clan MacKay, I've come to give you satisfaction today. I've my axe and my armor. I may be old, but I fought more foes before you were born than you'll see in a lifetime. I can give you a fight that you might not walk away from." He thumps his chest. "I am Clan MacKay and if one of us is to risk a fall I'd rather give my old life than have the flower of youth trod under foot. My young grand nephew is a stout lad and he's seen a scrap or two, but I've heard your reputation and I think you just might best him. He's not faced proper magic as I have. I once bested a pair of demonic foes tossing foul magics left and right. Summoned they were by a fool of an Orc shaman. They tore him in half before they turned to face me. Heh, that was a bloody right fight." He realizes he is starting to ramble and then reins himself in. "Anyway Captain, if it is a fight you want, I'll give it to you. However, I hope that we can find another way forward."</blockquote>
