Instead, he simply shrugged and took another sip of his drink. The whiskey wasn't likely to affect him like it should, since he'd been drinking it for years, but he also wasn't looking to get drunk either, so he didn't down it. [color=SteelBlue]"Constant movement, as you put it, isn't always a good thing, especially where combat and war are involved. Sure it supercharges the economy, provides a lot of jobs, but when it ends, it all collapses. And constant fighting isn't any better, hospital bills, funerals and their costs; things like that aren't great, nevermind the hurt it causes the loved ones of the dead and injured."[/color] Another bout of silence reigned as the band began introductions and Akagalcia shifted her focus there for a moment, allowing the Spectre time for three fires and a couple of bits of burger before she continued speaking, suggesting that they travel together in a rather non-chalant way. If the psion was honest, the idea didn't bother him that much, since spending time alone all the time was beginning to get old, but he didn't want her to feel like she needed to offer something in return, and so he spoke plainly in response. [color=SteelBlue]"I'd enjoy some company for awhile, but you are by no means required to pay me back for any meals or lodging I get us in the interim. Helping people is what I do, and I enjoy doing it. I never ask for anything back, nor do I need it."[/color] He falls silent once more and his seeing her memories played along the edge of his mind, specifically the fire she'd summoned. It reminded him of another planet that existed, one known for it's magic, and it gives the Spectre an idea. [color=SteelBlue]"I think I know where we can go to help you get your fire magic back."[/color]
