[color=ed1c24]"No!"[/color] Saxan said when he heard that Kismet wanted to go with none other than Tam, the person he trusted the least around women, especially one he held close to. However, he realized he spoke without even thinking, so he quickly tried to conjure something up, something that would not be a lie or anything of the sort, but it would serve as a proper explanation for his outburst... and all he could come up with was the pure truth.

He took a deep breath to calm himself and began once again speaking. [color=ed1c24]"I am sorry for that outburst, I truly am, however, my friend Tam here is quite the ladies man and though I trust him keeping many of secrets and around many things, I do not trust him around beautiful women."[/color] He said, not even realizing that he had just called Kismet beautiful. He turned towards the people around him and bowed in apology to them, before turning towards Tamarack. [color=ed1c24]"I'm sorry for that, Tam, I truly am."[/color] he said a bowed before his friend as well.

Then, he turned towards the group once more. [color=ed1c24]"I say we do split up, but if we split up, I cannot leave Tam alone, he'll probably get into some trouble and I'll have to get him out of it. So, here's how I propose we do it. Lord Beaudric, you take sir Durwith here and consult yourself once more with the heads of the two houses to find out more about both the people we're trying to find. Meanwhile, me, Tam and Kismet here, will go first to guard, and if that does not yield any results, we'll go talk to..."[/color] he turned towards Tam as he continued speaking [color=ed1c24]"... the people from the other walks of life. What do you say?"[/color]
