[i]"I wish we could do something about the dragon, but it is much too powerful for you to deal with. Many men have already died to it... I would be no leader to send troops on a suicide mission."[/i] The sensibility of the governor in question was firmly established as his wounded lips spoke those words unto the group before him, at least in the eyes of the wilderness' warrior. They might have a chance then, something in the slightest if they were intent on avoiding the monstrous being and its wrath. There could be time for justified revenge to come, but for now it was safest to adhere to what the man had said in his other proposal; it was not suicidal, at least for the moment. Brannor could see little fault with being granted some direction by perhaps Greenest's last ruling official, as there was little he knew of the place in complete. The man's concerns played themselves out into his expression, of which worried they - this entourage of outsiders - might decline to rescue what was left of the city he was charged with. A legitimate concern, given how worse for wear they were as well and the fact that not all of them might be "heroes"; Brannor certainly did not consider himself one. He was a knight of the wild, sworn to the world outside the city, but enemies of life and light - the very nature of the darkness that resided in the creatures here in their assault - gave him common ground and a stake in the battle playing out. "There is still work to be done against these creatures. I am willing to continue my efforts against them, injured as I might be." Brannor said almost plainly. Based upon the look of the governor and the infirmary, the survivors were woefully without anyone to restore them it seemed; it became increasingly calling for desperation, things that might not regularly be considered. He was left to wonder just how much more the orc, other than himself, could stand as well for the servants of the dragon had beaten them both mercilessly with every frantic blow - or lucky one in the man's case - that they could muster. It did not change his demeanor however and the large, strangely eyed human said nothing more. [@Ryonara][@Phoenix][@Raijinslayer][@Lucius Cypher][@Hekazu]
