[QUOTE="Oni, post: 4499078, member: 380"] As Lynn listened to the little halfling boy looking up at her, she could not help but smile a sad smile. His small display of bravery was as endearing as it was heartwrenching. Again the idea of this child being involved in this mess caused a lump in the pit of her stomach. As she was about the respond, divert his attention away from this idea, the words died on her lips as Dj'hân seemed nearly to leap from his skin. Clearly Edmond knew more about Lamm than she did, and something he mentioned seemed to have a profound effect on the little one. There was no time to piece together the mystery though before Thorson's angry voice once more commanded her attention. Transfixed by his fearsome ravings she saw the small form of Dj'hân streak by her leg, part of her wanted to join him. If she was honest with herself, Thorson frightened her. As he questioned their resolve, she felt shame and uncertainty sweep over her. Maybe she didn't have a right to be here, she was angry yes, but it seemed shallow compared to the depths of the half-orc's rage. No, no, no, she shook her head and found her resolve, Lynn had a purpose here and she would see it through. As Thorson approached the cowering halfling boy, she stood and turned to watch them, with an almost mad certainty that something terrible was to happen. As she listened to them however she began to realize that perhaps she had grossly misjudged the hulking half-orc. He was certainly more astute then she had given him credit for. Lynn was positively stunned that he was capable of more than threats and raging. Again there was a twinge of shame, it said more of her than him. Watching the little halfling hug Thorson it occurred to her that she no longer thought his mind simple either. Lynn met Thorson's challenging gaze with only a gentle nod of approval. Looking away from him, she thought quickly, better now before it was too late. Lynn looked back to Thorson, eyes more fierce than before.
