"Yeah. Boverth is a place of sanctuary. I'll make certain you're welcomed warmly. However, I request that you do not display your magical abilities until I have a chance to talk to the king. Better to be certain than to dig ourselves into a hole." Brutus said, with a sigh afterwards. Why did this have to happen? These were<span style="font-style: italic">good</span>people. And not good as in loyal to a king or holding some moral values, but they had built a life for each other in the middle of dangerous mountains. Brutus couldn't get the mental image out of his head of families waking up together, everybody knowing one another, and everyone just getting along with this vibe of warmth about them. A place where everyone did whatever they could to help. He couldn't help but feel guilty, those men that attacked him bore the same symbol that the others did.<br/><br/>He was trapped in thought for a short while. Until she suddenly handed him this tooth, despite her description it still glimmered with this light. He could almost feel a power from just being so close to it. His hands didn't move to accept it, but his eyes did move from it back to hers. "Elair..." He said, his head tilting back to the tooth. Why was she doing this? After a moment, he finally accepted the tooth into his hands. He wasn't sure why, perhaps it was just a moment of weakness, this power would please Boverth, after all. But on a completely different aspect, he was taking from a woman who had saved his life and took him in as one of her own people. Normally he might have thought about how Morpheus died and if other teeth might exist around these mountains. But the thoughts in his head were currently occupied.<br/><br/>She continued to speak as though it wasn't a big deal that she had passed this tooth to him. He registered all of it, but didn't respond. Finally, he handed the tooth back for her to take. "It's my fault that all this happened." He said, after a long silence. "I cannot possibly accept such a divine gift after I failed to protect your home after I put it in jeopardy. Whether or not it's for the king, I cannot take it." His voice was much shakier than it had been thus far, the guilt weighed down on her more than he ever thought it might. He left the tooth there, for her to take back if she chose to do so. After another long pause, he spoke again. "This city is massive, Elair. Out of the three rivers that lead into the city, this one leads into Portshaven. I've worked with guards there before, they wouldn't fire on sight." He paused once more. "But if they're expecting enemy presence or not it beyond me. I guess better safe than sorry. We'll walk."
