[QUOTE="Thomas Hobbes, post: 1625203, member: 8623"] Rhesa wishes she hadn't choosen such a [i]wimbly[/i] persona for her cover. She itches to be biting and sarcastic in her response, but settles for rolling her eyes in a vaguely superior manner. "It's not about [i]being strong,[/i] Lydia, it's about mathematics. There're only three of us against an angry bringer of divine vengance from the heavens." Aeweth frowns, and Rhesa thinks hard about what she knows about hound archons. Exactly... nothing. Right, time to make some educated guesses. "And he's probably more than that, too," continues Aeweth. Aeweth really, really doesn't want to go toe-to-toe with this thing, and neither does Rhesa. She's still trying to process this whole [i]Ezuvial-is-an-angel[/i] thing, but her desire to kill an avatar of pure goodness is limited, even if he is a pompous ass. Aeweth hesitates for a moment, and then cautiously reveals her ignorance. "Hound Archons... don't cast spells, right? The way, uh, mortals do? 'Cause I was there when he tried to charm one of them, and he, you know..." she waves her arms about as if casting a spell. "Can Archons do that?" Rhesa's guessing they can't. She doesn't know a whole lot about the little details of magic, but she does know that [i]she[/i] can't cast any spells to persuade people, and wizards can. She also knows that messing with people's minds directly isn't an inherently good thing to do, although come to think of it it fits the "I know what's good for you" modus operandi of those righteous pricks... in any case, she's guessing that Ezuvial is still more than he appears, even after he turned out to be more than he appeared.
