[color=a187be]"Heh, someone thinks Spirits need a half-breed to look out for them. Cute."[/color] Tania chuckled, earning a swat on the head from Lena, though she didn't say anything.

Vili did have a noble goal it seemed. That was something that Lena could respect. She was climbing the tower for purely selfish reasons, at least so she couldn't say anything about her reasoning for climbing it herself, but...prestige? The Elf wanted something similar that she wanted...but, she couldn't agree with Vili's methods.

[color=fff79a]"I-I see,"[/color] Lena muttered, looking down at her teacup. A thumbs up from Tania made her feel somewhat better and encouraged her to continue. It was probably clear the two of them had at least discussed this matter somewhat. The elf took a deep breath before continuing. [color=fff79a]"B-but would it change anything?"[/color] Lena questioned. [color=fff79a]"Isn't that the same as them? You would be using your...position your prestige to force what you wanted? A-and there's no guarantee that even it would work! Not unless you had prestige higher than them. Not to mention, wouldn't [i]you[/i] be the only one with that recognition? It wouldn't help other spirits at all, would it? Not unless you took them all in, but even so if a spirit belonged to an abusive human you couldn't do much, could you? And after you...erm, passed it might go back to the way it was."[/color] Lena fell silent, taking a sip of tea from the cup. Well, she was feeling more confident now and sure of herself.

[color=fff79a]"I Understand you want to help but,"[/color] She looked back at Vili. [color=fff79a]"Even if you climb the tower and get prestige, unless you show them that you [i]won't[/i] be bullied by them and that they [i]can't[/i] bully you then nothing will change in the long run. I'm sorry, but...it sounds to me if you are simply ignoring the problem in front of you. Fighting them might not help in the short run...but if you [i]act[/i] like you don't care about them then its...really disheartening, you know? Spirits need to be shown someone does care about them and won't stand for such mistreatment. I-I'm not advocating violence, but if [i]everyone[/i] starts standing up to them, then there's not much they would be able to do. They can't just start fighting everyone - that would be a battle they couldn't win no matter how arrogant they are."[/color]

[color=a187be]"Besides, spirits don't need a batty little half-breed to fight for us-"[/color] Another poke from Lena quieted the Pixie, who simply shrugged and fluttered up to the elfs head, seemingly bored of the conversation.

[color=fff79a]"...I-i'm sorry for asking about this."[/color] Lena said. [color=fff79a]"It...w-well, It's just something me and Tania have  thought about a lot and it's one of the reasons I'm climbing the tower. I want to be able to protect people so that they won't have to be bullied by anyone, and w-well, prove that I'm not just some Klutzy elf that can't even hold a sword all that well. I just...you seemed like a good person so I couldn't understand why you'd stay silent."[/color]

[color=a187be]"You'd think the shady guy in a giant cloak in a bar is just shy and wants a hug, Lena."[/color]

[color=fff79a]"N-no I wouldn't!"[/color] Lena pouted somewhat, earning a sigh from the pixie as she gave the elf another pat on the head.
