[quote=thewizardguy] "I am simply abiding by the law. There is a reason we don't let random men walk into taverns and take babies away. There is a procedure to be followed. Do not blame me, as if I am trying to separate the two out of evil intent, I am simply attempting to curb mages with no respect for the ways things should be." Jake, at hearing the anger in the mages telepathic message, simply sighed, looking disapprovingly at the mage. [/quote] "First off, this isn't a random man, it's an elf. I already told you of how elves were. They are not bad people, no matter how annoying and ridiculous they might be.Two, you would take this baby without giving the elf a chance to maybe adopt her himself. Why? Couldn't he take her to the very government you speak of with the intent to adopt her?" Miepolu asks. "I'm sorry with my earlier anger, and I realize you're right. But maybe you can give the child back and we can make sure she is appropriately adopted?" He says 'we' as if he would help make sure this happened.
