Jemals School

[Myth and Legend]

Jamien bowed to Arin and took a seat again so that he could finish his meal in peace. "Thank you, lady Arin. I dislike conflict and do not want to be a burden to you or anyone else, but I am adamant on my views. Justification is due for those interested to hear it, but i would assume none of you are. Oh also - the young knight glanced at the spellcaster - It seems that you have changed the way you speak once a situation of some seriousness has arisen."

 

[GlassEye]

Aussir scampers away from Amaya's kick and stops by Nettle. Sniffing at the bone the wolf has been gnawing on, he gets what is proble to close to the large canine.

Nettle's jaws clamp down on the bone and a low rumbling from deep in his throat clearly implies "Not for you!"

Above table Cal doesn't notice Nettle and Aussir. He's finally able to turn back to his meal and finish it off. He licks his fingers clean and looks around to see if everyone else is near finished. Looking over at Arin with new respect he says, "If everyone's done, can we see the arena now?"

Amaya rushes to finish her meal, not wanting to miss the tour of the Arena facilities.

"Narrow minds tend to crash into their walls much more often than a broadened one..." Coravin muttered softly into his rice, sighing lightly.

"Not even here for a day, and already making enemies... not a wise course of action. I thought it was a Knight's place to always be polite, even to his mortal enemies? As for your reasons, I won't pry into them unless you give me the impression it's something relevant to our group, should we choose to work together towards our education here. I assume that is part of why we're touring mostly as a group?"

He continued eating, his gaze moving to his companions as he did so, hoping he hadn't overly offended the knight, but he never was the most eloquent with words.

Jamien raised an eyebrow at the magic user: "You should judge me not, master Wizard, and you should not call me narrow minded as you do not know anything about me. You should also refrain from speaking of the Knight's duties if you are not truly knowledgeable - I have not broken the Code of Honour with my actions or words - everything i have stated is true for Faerun. In fact, if we were in Faerun, slaying a Dark Elf that has come topside would be considered an act of heroics. - the lad pushed his plate away and wiped his lips with a napkin, before continuing. - Still, i have not used foul language or issued threats - it was the Dark Elf who came within striking distance and suggested violence, and then turned tail when a stronger opponet came before him. So far he has stayed true to my presumptions for his kind."

Jamien noticed Assuir and Nettle eying each other in a feral manner and leaned over next to Cal: "I think your wolf may turn our friend there in to a morsel, Cal."

Jamien then put his mail clad gloves once more and checked his sword in the scabbard and the warhammer in the holster on his back. He talked while doing this:

"I am simply defending my position. As i have already said, Drow are evil abominations in my world and my reaction is justified. I am also not a spinless coward and i will not change my views just to avoid the wrath of an adversary."

 

[Rhun]

"Do not fret overmuch, Jamien," says Amaya. "Dark elves on my world are blackhearted fiends as well." She smiles. "I simply prepared myself for the possibility of meeting all types at this school, good and evil alike."

"I am simply defending my position. As i have already said, Drow are evil abominations in my world and my reaction is justified. I am also not a spinless coward and i will not change my views just to avoid the wrath of an adversary."

"You judged that Drow there for the actions of others. At the very least, I am judging your actions. Your experiences are obviously not identical across the realms, and beings from other planes may not be as they are in your own. Judging that Drow based on the actions of others is foolish, especially in a setting of this kind.

I wouldn't say he turned tail so much as reconsidered attacking you due to the school's rules. Or are you suggesting you yourself would have chosen instead to attack someone against the school rules and a vastly stronger adversary, were you in his shoes?"

Amaya stands and places her hands on her hips. She glares at both Jamien and Coravin. "Both of you stop, now. The issue is over, let it lie. We are all going to have to help one another, both in studies and in the arena, in the coming months, and this is just sowing dissent and distrust. So stop it now, because you don't want to see me angry."

"I'm simply trying to understand why he feels that judging all planar variants of the same species is fine and dandy, when he doesn't know any examples of those alternate specimens. It's also helping me get to know him better, no? And if you want us to work together, getting angry with me is counterproductive. Anger clouds the mind and hampers judgement..."

 

[Rhun]

Amaya's face flashes red as she turns her glare on Coravin. "You strike me as the studious type...so what part of OVER are you failing to understand?" She takes a deep breath to calm herself, and then continues. "Now, I want you both to show that you are good sports, and shake one another's hands. If you truly feel the need to continue this conversation, perhaps you should pick a place that isn't quite so public."
