[color=007236][b]Dirt Town Orphanage, 1 hour after Fritz'[/b] death[/color]
Sarus slipped through the crowd to the front, standing with the oldest children in the orphanage; his  pale,smooth face showing nothing but a slight frown in the flicker of candlelight. Truth be told, Sarus had allowed himself some time to weep in private before going to the hall. Fritz had been good to him and it was a terrible thing that had happened, but it had happened and now they would have to deal with the aftermath alone. 

After one of the younger girls, Oralee, stepped forward and made her abilities clear; he decided to do the same before giving his suggestions on what to do. He spoke smoothly and seemed to draw out every S that came from his mouth [color=007236]"My body is toxic, a bite can lead to a nasty burn or worse. I can even bottle it if need be. I can supply everyone with poisons for their blades, I think we'll need it."[/color]
 Before continuing, Sarus looked around at everyone to see if he had caught their attention. Then he spoke again [color=007236]"We need to show these gangs we are not to be trifled with,  fear and respect kept them from attacking us when Fritz was...here. I propose we show them we can do the same, strike Stalwart and her gang before they gather up the strength to attack us, we show the other gangs we're a force to be reckoned with and perhaps gain some more influence ourselves. Fear is the only thing these gangs understand so we should show them we are something to be feared." [/color]After suggesting their course of action, Sarus took a step back to allow anyone else who wished to speak to step forwards. While he did truly believe this would make the gangs less willing to immediately raid Asylum Island, he did not plan to stop there. If he played his cards right , the dirt town orphans could rival the most powerful gangs in the city given enough time.
