Kote appears quite drained and thoroughly exhausted as they sit down to sup.
"Always in such a rush. Tomorrow friend. Tomorrow we will have all that we need to know. What you should be thinking on now, is what happens next. While there will certainly be some windfall from these goods, it won't be enough to settle on a farm with miller's daughter if you catch my meaning. While this place is nice, i'm quite sure there's much more to see elsewhere and if our luck holds out we'll reap a considerable amount more than we ever expected." Kote says,, shaking his head at the impatience of his companions.
At the lamenting of Ava, Kote sets his utensils down and looks directly at her, compassion on his face, "Lass, no one likes to hear the truth, especially when it's not the truth your looking for. Reason doesn't help much, but it's all we have. Your mother, who was likely a great force herself, fell to this man. You, though unquestionably destined for great things, are still a young pup. There's a great deal of time and learning you'll need to stand up to him. It would do your mother little justice to sacrifice yourself needlessly. Revenge is slow, well-planned, and methodical, deary. Running from town to town shouting the atrocities done to your family is nothing more than self-pity. If you sincerely want revenge, find a means before you find your target, and make sure you win."
He smiles shortly, and returns to eating and smalltalk and refrains from commenting on the issue for the remainder of the night.
