[QUOTE="covaithe, post: 5199692, member: 46559"] [sblock=Weel and Karl] After you both speak, Corvin's face flushes darker still. [color=sienna]"A trial, is that what they told you? Human sacrifice, more likely. What can these savages know of justice? They'll kill us all, sacrifice us to their dark gods, and then eat what remains. If we don't work together, none of us will survive!"[/color] His voice rises, and he means to go on, but another voice cuts him off. [color=wheat]"No, the priest is right, Corvin."[/color] A stoop-shouldered, middle-aged man with a farmer's thick hands and deep, dark circles under his eyes steps forward. His feet move slowly, but with determination. [color=wheat]"What we did to that village, that's what was savage. We were there. We saw. They didn't lift a finger, until we shot first. Then they fought, aye. As would anyone. But we killed 'em, even those that was helpless. Killed them, and burnt their homes. And I don't care if they sacrifice me, as long as I get the chance to tell 'em first that I'm sorry. It was wrong, Corvin Tanabar. It was wrong, and you're wrong."[/color] Corvin's face goes still during this speech, almost relaxed, and his eyes slit with concentration. [color=sienna]"Still a coward, Tennin. Now as then. If you're not with us, you're against us, and you're a threat to our plans to escape. You don't want to be a threat, do you, Tennin? We'd have to do something about you, if you were a threat."[/color] His hands hang at his sides, relaxed and open, but his weight shifts forward into a slight crouch. Tennin balls his fists and plants his heels. [color=wheat]"I'm going to do what's right. And I'm not going to let you stop me."[/color] Other men murmur and shout in agreement with one side or the other. The groups of different loyalties contract into tighter bunches. Fists are formed, and as Tennin and Corvin stalk closer to each other, the tension, already high, is mounting fast. A fight could break out at any minute. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
