[center][h2]Jack Goran|Dragon Fang Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@Oblivion666][/center] Jack listened to Zephyr explain his dilemma, letting his guild handle their own problems, and shook his head. [color=Turquoise]"Actually, my magic has been passed down through generations of my family. I couldn't tell you where they originally learned it, just that for as long as my family has been around, we've passed it on to our children. As for an opponent..."[/color] He taps his chin thoughtfully for a moment, then snaps his fingers. [color=Turquoise]"Jackie should be floatin' around the guild somewhere, she would gladly help you train."[/color] [center][h2]Jake Ronan|Dragon Fang Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@Caits][/center] [color=SaddleBrown]"Shattering a fragile psyche does not make a person understand. If anything, you've only confused them."[/color] He ignored the short red spirit for the most part, addressing Michael directly. [color=SaddleBrown]"I understand how you feel on the issue, and while I agree with it from a different stand point, you cannot claim to understand a soul, anymore than I can. However, Freddy was my friend, and he had a more intimate understanding of a soul's existence than anyone I'd ever met. When a deal is brokered, the necromancer has all the control, how often the soul can be summoned, what it's allowed to do and when, who it communicates with, what bodies it can use. Freddy once got Master Jack to give him the details of the creatures the Demon of Lorenth controlled. He cried, Michael, like he cried when he finally accepted that he'd done horrible things. Necromancers as young as Eve require a coping mechanism, something to keep their mind from fracturing and making them truly dangerous. She's naive and uneducated. Give Zen and Jos some time and they'll work wonders on the girl."[/color] He looks towards Nero the "Genie" and clenches a fist. [color=SaddleBrown]"Given we can keep him out of it. On that note, don't mind him, he doesn't understand the concepts of family if I get his meaning right. We'll fight, we'll spat, but in the end, we still have each other's backs."[/color] [center][h2]Zen Trentus|Dragon Fang Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@Lugubrious][/center] Zen stood and walked between Joslyn and Nero, his eyes narrow. [color=Black]"And if we don't trust you? Granted, you've given me no reason personally to mistrust you, but I'm not the most reasonable or level headed guy around, unless we're talking about Hunter. Then I'm probably more reasonable than him. Anyways, on what grounds should we trust you?"[/color] [center][h2]Joslyn Veran|Dragon Fang Guild Hall[/h2][/center] [center][@Invisible Man][/center] Joslyn listened to Eve's words as she felt the young girl's body tense up. For all the lessons on high living she'd gotten from her parents, she'd never been good at wording things properly. So she tried again, this time a little more tactfully, ignoring Zen's discussion behind her. [color=MidnightBlue]"Eve, we would never try to replace your real family. That would be incredibly wrong of us. But, how about this? What if you and I take a trip to your old home, give you a chance to see your parents one more time before coming here permanently? Would that help you?"[/color]
