[color=f26522]"Wow. You killed that big fella? Impressive. You gotta have a lot of power to pull something like that off."[/color]

Lorek jumped a little as the man spoke. It was very unusual for moogles get caught off guard due to their large ears. One could chalk it up due to Lorek being tired from the fight. Nevertheless, Lorek was still a bit spooked. The man offered a hand that Lorek had no consent to, and he yanked Lorek up on his feet. The man's grip held power, much more than Lorek would expect from a regular human.

[color=f26522]"So, my little friend. You seem pretty strong....I think you're the one my boss wanted me to find. My name's Grunt. Nice to meetcha."[/color]

Lorek didn't respond, but instead observed the man who called himself Grunt. The clothes he wore were not that of a soldier, but also foreign to the land of Gran Pulse. [color=fff200][i]This man... He isn't from Cocoon is he? He most certainly isn't from Gran Pulse, but to send an unarmored soldier from Cocoon down her would be risky...[/i][/color]

[color=f26522][i]"If ya got any business to clear up here, I'd like for ya to speed it up. My boss hasn't got much time left, till something bad happens...so...move with gusto."[/i][/color]

Now [i]THAT[/i] sound liked something someone from Cocoon would say. But why would they want him? A black mage moogle with a vendetta for their entire nation? He preferred death to working with them. Still, the man didn't seem entirely like the Cocoon type. Most would taken advantage of his unawareness after the behemoth fight and killed him right there, especially after seeing he was a mage. 

Lorek quickly propelled himself a few feet back and pulled out his rod, assuming a defensive posture. If this man were Cocoon, Lorek would attempt to run away rather than fight him. He was tired from the last fight and the man seemed to have more power to him than his appearance suggested.

[color=fff200]"What do you mean by something bad, kupo?"[/color] Lorek spoke calmly. [color=fff200]"And who exactly is your boss?"[/color]
