Ras shrugged and let the chains dissipate. "Maybe, but after all the bullshit I've been through recently I don't think it's too bad for me to punch one person. I'd rather you stay here with me but if these people aren't going to let us shop in peace I'd rather you relax at home with Relene than have to put up with them. Regardless of what I want, though, I think Relene's about had it with the city after meeting Thoga. Did she really make you that nervous, Relene? You weren't bothered by the old shaman who's going to tutor you. She's an old friend of mine and wouldn't hurt a fly... unless paid to. Then she'd probably kill it in a very creative manner. Point is, though, she's completely harmless and even more so with both me and your mother with you."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
