Jarrith stops his pacing as the words the paladin have spoken finally make an impression.  His eyes are piercing, and for a second you'd almost think he was ready to pick another fight... but instead he takes another one of those ten breaths to keep himself calm before speaking."I know nothing of these Lightbringers you speak of, Lady Ashlyn.  Although from the sounds of the name, your group probably has much in common with my own... the Order Of Illumination.  Do you know of us?  Unlike your group, we are entirely made up of devout templars of the Flame, and we fight all manner of evil... not just of the undead variety.  Some may find our methodology a bit too... stringent..."He throws a frown back towards the inn... his words making complete sense to someone who has seen both sides of the last few minutes... "...but we feel we do not have time to debate different shades of grey.  Evil is among us... and the more time we spend trying to catagorize people as 'bad', or 'only slightly bad', or 'good but occasionally bad', or 'really, really good except when they've been drinking and then they become really bad'... or any other stupid attempt to rationalize the darkness in men's hearts... the more time that darkness has to gain hold.  And we in the Order would rather shine a bright light on that darkness and then root that darkness out quickly and straight away."He chuckles to himself.  "Some people have a problem with that attitude.  But then again... usually it's the people who have some of that darkness within themselves and don't like what they see when they look at themselves in the mirror because of it."And before the rest of the party comes back out from within the inn, Jarrith takes a few steps to Ashlyn and shows a genuine interest.  "So what it is about these Lightbringers that you count yourself amongst their number?  What are the similarities or difference between our two organizations?"</blockquote>
