[color=39b54a]"Well between having to much pride, and having no pride I rather have too much personally. People with no drive don't try to contribute to the overall grand scheme of things. And not all of us have too much pride. Miss Yuna doesn't have much in the way of pride outside of her duty as a knight. Severnus is pretty brutal, and tends to just stick to himself. I feel like a lot of the greater ones held Basilieus Doux in great regard. He had a great hand in forming the policies of the early empire. He was loud, proud, and rough but a great man. He's the kind of guy I can only dream of growing up to half way match. I'd be lucky if I got near Severnus. I'm just good at the stabby parts."[/color] Quinn further explained to the greater being who seemed to continuously find fault in how strong they were mentally. If was a bit grating to Quinn but he dealt with it. But when he brought up the new Basilieus, Grey, he wondered if he was as disrespectful as he appeared to be. [color=39b54a]"His new imperial highness? Lord Grey was never much of a leader. He was always just giving out the orders given to him. But he's strong. And between him, and General Claudius they're bound to find something out...if you wanted a say in the matter then you shouldn't have left where the actions were happening. An empire is only as quick as its beautracratic system allows it to be...or at least that's what Grand Patriach Hardin told me...heheh..."[/color] commented Quinn as he rubbed the back of his head with a silly smile.
