What Kiori said made enough sense, after all if assassins went back on their word all the time there would be no chance for any more cooperation. Good that was one part of their plan taken care of, long as other people aren't too affected by their own presence then Rylee was happy. She nodded in agreement, "Then I say let's combine our ideas, tell the village to cooperate and attract as much attention as possible, if we know the assassin is coming long enough beforehand I think we'll be fine." From that point on neither of them said much, although now they were back on track, as an afterthought personally Rylee was thankful they didn't fall during that confrontation, perhaps even coming out better than before.

It was a little while later, Kiori as always wasn't very talkative, but that was fine since she didn't want to say much anyway, plus it wasn't an awkward silence like all those times before, here Rylee could feel relative peace between them just two friends enjoying some company really. That silence soon after was broken, and by a rather unexpected question, he wanted to know more about her past. Yes, they've been friends for a long time so that portion of their history should've been well accounted for, still after the progress they made that day Rylee almost forgotten about the long length of time where they really haven't seen each other. All the same she expected that he'll ask sooner rather than later, after a few moments of thought she started, "Pretty obvious you wanted to know, don't blame you for asking either since I haven't said anything at all, I'd even say right now I know more about your time with the assassins than you know about my time with the constables." 

"Well then... to start with I wasn't scouted, not back at that age at least, I pretty sure you remember what I was like back then, wasn't much of a physical fighter, nor too strong, I also used to keep long hair, right? I did until it was chopped soon after I joined, they wouldn't let me keep it for reasons you probably understand. You know my family, we were merchants, how my dad was a member of a minor trading guild, nothing too prestigious but enough to get a decent childhood, which we shared. A couple of months after you were taken... some problems, guess you could call them, piled up until eventually all at once our household was ripped apart. I don't know what happened even to this day, but long story short, I lost everything, my home, my brothers, and my parents... now I'm sure they're still alive living whatever life they found out there, I just know I'll never see them again." 

"Using the last of his influence, my dad got me a post with the constables, they needed more muscle and let's face it its not like I had any marketable skills back then, so it was impossible to get me with any other guild. The rest you know, became a constable which then became everything to me, right down to living in a barracks." Rylee wrapped up her lengthy explanation, looking somber after recounting those troubling days, that is until she continued with a reassuring smile, "By the way, Kio there's no need to worry about me, I've made my peace with happened ages ago, sure its sad to remember but I've moved on by now, so go ahead and put to rest any notions of consoling me. Anyway since we're still on the subject of me, need to know anything else?"
