Carn almost laughed at the notion of HIM of all people being heroic. [B]"Heroic? Hardly I kill heroes for a decent place to sleep and a half decent bowl of soup. Only fools beg for the salvation of humanity. I just like to help out people who can't defend themselves...occasionally...As for my life, which I'm sure is poor compared to one such as yourself, I've got only one thing to live for at the moment and that is the murder of a group of fellow humans living inside of Plegia. As for fake names...I never used them despite my occupation I told the men I've killed by droves in Valm and Ferox who was responsible for killing them before I slew them. I am no coward why should I fear who knows my name?[/B] Carn said to the general honestly with a half grin. He looked at the man's face and grinned hoping that his assumption was right, [B]"I see by that look in your eye that you're preparing for something. Perhaps I can be of service to you. If it helps my offer anymore I come from Regna Ferox and was prided for my sword technique there. But I'm sure a mighty general like you could easily match mine but that's besides the point.[/b] Carn continued on with what looked sincerity but was really disgust at his own words. [b]So you ask what I want? I suppose a bag full of gold and a place to sleep isn't bad. "Surely a man of your stature and grace shouldn't need to dirty his own blade in combat if need be when a sell sword of my caliber such as I exists."[/b] Carn followed up and he had no shame about those words. He'd said them to many a Valmese noble before they hired him to murder children and scum in their sleep. [B]"I'd also like to add one last thing: An apology. I expected you to be like the typical Ylissian Noble. Something like the late hero king Marth if you need a specific example though I'm sure you're more than a match for one such as him. So how about it...You asked what I wanted and be a real man. What better way to answer both than to have me offer my help to you.[/B]
