[@Fetzen] Thanks man, I don't think Nicademus would go so far as to physically threaten Aeryn, he might be tempted to and might make a stupid move like partially drawing his sword out again but he probably would stop himself, say, midway through the bridge above the ditch. [@Stormflyx] Hahaha, the response from Nicademus would be not good at all. Aeryn mentioned human slaves, and how she tried to free 'em and how she was betrayed by one, and that carries for Nicademus a whole lotta baggage. The fact that it involves Dorcha makes the situation even worse (in general Dorcha and human slavery are the two things that'd make Nicademus loose his cool). So, will probably start working on a post and wait to see if anyone is against me posting a second time. If not, I'll, well, post again.
