From what he can see, it appears the village is quiet outside, with people coming and going as normal for a settlement of this size.Kassel sighs and places his hands on the table. "What I meant to say, is that, we lied, a little to those 'Forged that came for the kids. But they didn't buy it, and I guess that's why they only sent you here. We got problems, and I'm not sure that you can help us. But it's too late now, it took too long, and now I'm afraid for my town.These folks are good people. We cleared this land and we're trying to make a life for ourselves. We don't ask for help, we don't take handouts. And we sure don't depend on no one for nothing". He slammed his fist in to the table for emphasis."But these folks showed up, and they started ruining our town. And we didn't have a choice, see. We had to get someone here to help us. And if you just want to go back to your school and leave us to die, well, I understand that. We should never have asked for help. We should never have got no one else involved."By the end of his speech, it appears that John Kassel is perhaps no longer talking to the group. His body language is agitated, and he seems to be looking past all the faces in front of him. He finally sighs deeply and looks down at the table, shaking his head.</blockquote>
