"Hmm, sure, I guess we can. I just hope we don't interrupt anything." Kaleeth replied. Julan was within sight, but too far away for even them to hear over the general noise of the village. Although, Kaleeth could observe a few things just by watching Julan. A decent-sized group of seven or so young Argonians had gathered around Julan, and he clearly was not exactly comfortable being the center of attention. He was not smiling and laughing as he often would with his friends back home, but neither did he look like he wanted to get away from the group. Some of the Argonians were excitedly talking to Julan any chance they had, while a few were looking at him silently, and perhaps judgmentally. 

Regardless, Kaleeth joined Janius and approached Julan and the others. The girl who was firing questions at Julan like a volley of arrows did not notice as first, but most of the rest of them did. Most grew silent, and all eyes shifted to Kaleeth and, in particular, Janius. A tan-scaled boy sitting on a log in the back of the group sat with his arms crossed, staring up at Janius with a blank expression for a few seconds before finally speaking.

As tempting as it was to embrace Rhazii's sympathy for her own comfort, Ahnasha did have a purpose to telling her story. Keeping her calm, she spoke softly and nodded to him. "And I would agree. I was furious when I saw him die, because I wanted to bleed him out slowly. I wanted to make him suffer in just the same way, but it was...Sabine I believe that finished him while they were rescuing me, more quickly than I would have liked. But, I still saw him die, and do you know what it was I saw? Fear, regret, pain. He was terrified to die...just like the man you killed. And yet, he got off easy compared to what he deserved, I think we would both agree. The point being that all people, no matter how despicable and deplorable they are, will tend to die in fear. The man you killed looked pitiful in his final moments, he looked like he deserved your mercy, but that doesn't mean he did. They were bandits. While I doubt they extensively tortured their victims, they still killed innocent people for a few bags of coins. Think of all the mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters that never returned home because of them, and think of all the people who will now live because of you. Don't...take this the wrong way, but I'm actually glad you reacted like this. Only a monster kills without feeling."
