Damien nodded in response to Rose's introduction. "Asking him directly would probably have been the best course of action, but I didn't want the risk of taking a beating like those guys." He said, gesturing towards the thugs, "I thought it best to ask any nearby bystanders first." 
Damien listened intently as Conduit then explained why he was here in the first place. "Well, I may be interested in helping, but I would like a little more details on exactly why you're wanting to go in there. It's not a quarantined zone for nothing, there are very high levels of radiation inside, and I don't want to risk my life for trinkets of little value." 

He glanced over at Rose before returning his gaze to Conduit. "I'm not really a fighter, but I am a healer. I'll help you, if you can give me a good reason. If not, I'll see about catching up with whoever it was that beat these thugs to near-death."
