Kiori was a bit uneasy about pretending to be somebody else. Assassins received no training in acting or infiltrating society. In fact, quite the opposite was true; they were trained to carry themselves as invincible killers to terrify civilians into cooperation. However, memorizing the details of his new identity came as second nature to him. He would often have to remember many details about his targets, especially those that were adept at hiding or were expected to put up a decent fight. He was not worried about getting even a small piece of information wrong... though he did hope he didn't accidentally refer to himself in the third person. "We are newly wed," he began, recapping their story in a professional tone, "and we hail from Eldenrock. Our home and most of our belongings, including my bow and arrows, were caught in the wildfires that have been spreading across the land. We had nothing tying us to that town, so we decided to look for a new place to settle down. We will call on the people's sympathy for supplies and shelter." That concluded the details that they would need to know about their story, but Kiori had something else he wanted to address before they made it to town. "We'll also need to make sure there is a place where we can be alone," he continued, his tone darkening. "When our assassin eventually catches up with us, I will be at a distinct disadvantage. In the guild, we kept our abilities to ourselves; all personal information was on a need-to-know basis. The most I will know about the assassin that comes for us is a name, and possibly a personality. However, he will be given a detailed file on me. My strengths, my equipment, my magic... he'll know everything. Under those conditions, I will die in a one-on-one duel. However, there is one advantage that we have." Here, he simply pointed at Rylee. "If it's two-on-one, we have a chance, but with all due respect, the skills you showed in the tavern will not be adequate. If we're going to live, I'll need to show you how to fight an assassin." He didn't know how Rylee was going to react to that; his last suggestion had nearly driven her away. However, this proposition was strictly self-defense, and she had already shown that she would not be going down without a fight. Still, he wondered if she would have the capacity to kill.
