[quote=Rusalka] So quick was the man to appear from behind her eyes filled with scrutiny and affixed with a rather grudging disdain upon such sloppy imperfectioned soldiers, yet unnoticed he did not go for Jocelyn could easily sense the young assassin trailing behind her coattails. "If that was an attempt to sneak up on me, Adrian, then I hope you would fare better sneaking up on a Blind Fangorn Demon." Rather blunt Jocelyn returned to the younger lad, a fellow native of her home Hieledran, as she could tell by the brogue of his accent. She sighed uncrossing her arms and placing her hands upon her hips, turning on the heels of her hunting boots to face Adrian, a good Reaper he would have made for Blackguard, though there were some.....anomalies that seemed rather vague to Jocelyn of the boy, namely....a rather pungent scent. "Could you believe these bloody heathens we must ally ourselves with? Such behavior I cannot stomach and neither would the Church accept such unprofessional demeanor amongst their ranks." A bit cold was her statements as a hand moved from her hip now to carefully adjust her hat. It was seeming a tad crooked upon her head. "As for plans today, I've only few, go forth and slay the damned. I recommend most today should do the same, or rather they will just sit here gobbling meat and filling their bellies with refuse rather than their hearts with courage." [/quote] Laughing he replied "No ma'am that was not an attempt to sneak up on you, it just seemed like a more interesting route than the stairs." he then took a somewhat more serious tone "Im sorry ma'am I wouldn't know of the homeland I was raised abroad by a great man. His name was Jarik Von Carstein, and this was his sword." Adrian said lifting the sword slightly in its scabbard. "As for the matter of courage im afraid im just a humble assassin ma'am. I wouldn't know much of courage im no hero, I couldn't even save the one I loved" As he said this his voice was full of guilt and sadness and his eyes were cold and dead. It lasted but a brief moment however and he soon said "However if you would allow it id love to accompany you on whatever this days hunt may be, it would be nice to gain a little more experience".
