Nalkyr said, fighting the urge to pull his hood back up.  "But I'm afwaid you'll be disappointed.  S'not weally intewesting."Nalkyr drew a forearm across his mouth.  The scar tissue puckered up his lip, and the speech impediment was consequent to not being able to fully close that side of his mouth.  The other consequence was that, at times like these when he was talking overmuch, Nalkyr ran the risk of accidentally drooling."Was young.  Vewy young.  Thought I could handle a life of adventuwing." Nalkyr said slowly, distilling his tale.  There was more to it than that.  His father's reputation, the death of his mother.  But at its core, Nalkyr's attempt to run away had been just that- he wanted to be an adventurer.  "Wan- Wan- hmmf.  Left home with my father's blades.  Bandit cut my face and stole the blades."Nalkyr rolled another shrug, then wiped at his mouth again."There awe plenty of ways to learn humility.  That was mine." Nalkyr twitchied his lips in a momentary smile.  "Wish my lesson didn't make it so hawd to dwink soup, though."</blockquote>
