Message: <blockquote data-quote="Vendetta" data-source="post: 2082493" data-attributes="member: 14961">After listening to the Asherake this past hour and seeing the creature's ultimate demise of its self image, Xerxes approaches the defeated Asherake and says, "You know you will die because of the things you have told us today?  So why?  Why have you aided us so greatly?"  Without really waiting for the Asherake's reply, Xerxes continues, "Though you do not understand why, I believe that deep inside of you is a spark of goodness that has always known what you have served in the past is wrong.  But your superior training and discipline as a warrior burried your feelings under duty.  Honorable you are for serving your master unswervingly.  But today I believe that you have found something.  Surely you have not told us these things simply because you fear Baja?  I say no!  "While Baja is a fierce warrior and a good friend, you, too, are just as fierce and equally as loyal.  You did not tell us these things because you are weak.  No, you told us these things because somewhere deep inside of you, you know this to be the right and honorable thing to do.  "I offer you my friendship, if you'll take it, and ask you to join us.  You are a great warrior who can yet do great things with his life and die fighting for what is right and just and honorable as each of us hopes to.  You need not die a spent and worthless death, but a glorious death in a battle for honor and justice!  We face great and powerful foes here and we are no ordinary seeds, as your heart must tell you... for why else would you have risked all you are to aid us with your knowledge?  Join us and be counted among our number as friends."The Xeph stands silent, looking intently into the Asherake's eyes, unflinching and unwaivering.  ((OOC: Diplomacy +6 if you need to make the roll... but my intent with the RP is to bolster the damaged ego of the Asherake and try to convince him that this is what he wanted all along.  That his confessions of all the things he's told us are his own choice, a choice made at a subconscious level.))</blockquote>
