[center][h1][color=lightblue]Galahad Caradoc[/color][/h1] [/center] [hr] While he wouldn't call it a victory, they had left the fight with the demonic clown more or less unscathed. Nothing that couldn't be patched up with some white magic and rest. While not defeating the jester outright left a somewhat bitter taste in Galahad's mouth, he was more than happy to be rid of the ruins for the foreseeable future. As they made camp, he provided whomever needed it with minor healing, courtesy of the healing materia he had acquired. As they gathered around the fire with soup and bread, Rudolf began to tell truths that were long awaited- at least for some of them anyway. Galahad had always had the feeling that Rudolf had told him just enough to keep him aware of his nature, without really getting into any of the details. Well, at the very least it seemed that Rudolf had picked up Wulfric's verbosity when it came to storytelling. In lieu of any snide comments, Galahad offered Rudolf a wineskin. Liquid courage, an aide to a throat parched from speaking for so long, whichever was more convenient. [color=lightblue]"Well, I'm not sure what else you learned from the Demets, but you certainly picked up their propensity for tale telling. Perhaps you ought be a bard in the next life."[/color] Galahad remarked idly as he considered the rest of the information Rudolf had indulged them with. Galahad sighed, with a dismissive wave of his hand. [color=lightblue]"I don't suppose we could ask your... [i]Passenger[/i], to just [i]leave[/i], or let you go, right?"[/color] Galahad chuckled at the thought- if only it were so easy or simple. [color=lightblue]"Regardless, my position has not changed. You, Rudolf with your 'Passenger', are still the same Rudolf I've known throughout our journeys. So long as your Passenger does not seek to harm us, and your powers do not loose themselves upon us, I see no issues. You've controlled it well enough thus far, which is enough for me."[/color] [color=lightblue]"Keeping it from us is perhaps another story, but I'm sure we all have our own stories we'd rather not leave out in the open just yet."[/color] Galahad remarked, [color=lightblue]"The Kirins are already a [i]weird[/i] lot, what's one more weirdo to the menagerie?"[/color] [color=lightblue]"As far as what to do with being cut off from Etro herself... well, I imagine that's a hurdle we'll tackle when we get there. [i]If[/i] we get there."[/color]
