He thought of his grandfather, Saleh, a brave warrior slain by dark elf hands long before Orias was even born. He thought of Annya’s former husband, another elf slain through treachery, and of General Talindra, the knife that slit her throat and brought such an honorable life to such a brutal and unglorified end. Mostly though, he thought of himself as he waited for Nabarra to gather her possessions. He listened to her words, what they meant before he spoke. [color=1BC617]“I imagine it took a lot, to leave what you knew behind, and start over. Last night has reopened many wounds, and I am sorry I have been less than welcoming. If your intentions are as you say, you have my respect.”[/color] Orias spoke slowly, his words chosen carefully, and spoken honestly. An apology that felt unfamiliar and bitter to his tongue, only reinforcing that it was the likely right thing to say. He could not return the sentiment of ‘nice to meet you,’ with any sincerity, while not exactly a welcomed stranger, Nabarra was nothing if not interesting. [color=1BC617]“The tailor’s not far from here, a cloak should be an easy find. The Nest is a good spot for a drink and to find anyone looking for a fight. If anyone knows of a resistance force in this city they’ll likely be there, the king here is a notorious coward, so I’d expect little luck through official channels.”[/color] He added pointing out the way. He paused for a moment, before adding with a twitch of a smile and a lighter tone, [color=1BC617]“Maybe we can pick up a cane for you as well, to ensure you can keep up.”[/color] Orias gave a half-hearted attempt at a joke to lighten the mood.[/color]
