	Edmond laughed, "No no, nothing of that sort. I must admit I'm not a fan of those sorts of games. No, what I have proposed involves your particular..." he gave short pause, "capability." He stepped towards the side in a small ally between a couple of the businesses. He motioned her to follow so they could talk without being stuck in the middle of the foot traffic. They didn't have to move very far, just a couple feet inside.

	Edmond felt confident that he could at least have a conversation with Oxley now. It didn't take much to recognize that she was wary of Edmond and perhaps his intentions. Nervousness? Maybe, but her quip about her D&D skills looked more like a coping mechanism more than anything. At the very least she seemed interested in what he had to say, and that was the first hurdle. Now he had to tread carefully to not drive her away. Something small he could manage to keep her attention.

	"Let me be honest, Ms. Oxley. I'm sure you have figured out that I already know a little bit about your history, your upbringing, and what led you here." Edmond spoke factually, but also softly to give off an air of understanding. "I, of course, also know of your power, the ability to never forget." He looked at Oxley for the moment between phrases to see how she would react. That last sentence alone should have made it obvious to what he was in search of, and wanted to see if its mention would deter her away.

	"I can only guess as to how it must be to cope with a bombardment of new information day in and day out. In my case here, I have the means that might help you with managing your thoughts." Edmond tapped the handle of his metallic briefcase with his thumb. "Of course I am also offering you monetary compensation, and a streamlined endorsement to leave the compound. If you would care to join me for lunch, I can go into more detail. I know of a great pizza place of Tony Barelli just outside the compound walls. Getting out this time should not pose us an issue."
