Ssarak Dyreackthanose --- Ssarak gave a slight huff as he nodded in agreement. Alaira's actions had been foolish, and close to deadly to them, but she was not, nor had she ever been to his knowledge, in a position of power or leadership. It made sense to him how she could lack judgment, but for Lucilia, she was in a position of authority at the college. She was meant to be a leader, and he could not fathom how she could have such authority and still be willing to send a toddler on a dangerous mission for seemingly no purpose. [color=f7941d]"I could not agree more. Alaira lacks judgment when working with a team, but Lucilia, she is meant to be a leader here. Her motivation for hiding Lyn in that carriage must have either been terribly foolish or...even intentionally malicious. I am not certain which would be worse, given her position here. But..."[/color] Ssarak began as he took a few steps in front of her and placed his hand on her shoulder, stopping them in the middle of the hall. Now that they were in the college, he no longer needed to wear his helmet, leaving his concerned expression plainly visible. [color=f7941d]"I know you Meirin. I can hear it in your voice; see it in your eyes. You are angry. Righteously angry. But as much as I hate to say it, we have to accept our limitations. Lucilia, as foolish as her past decisions might have been, is a master of herbamancy. That is not a power to be taken lightly. She could kill both of us. Easily. Not to mention the college's rules against violence. We will not let her get away with this, but we have to find another way to do it. Certainly, we should still confront her about it, but please, stay your blade. I do not wish to see you harmed."[/color]
