Now, Gajol was usually a welcoming, kind and forgiving person. But, one thing that she did not appreciate in the slightest was to have anyone suddenly appear behind her. As soon as she heard the grey elf's soft words her hand was on the hilt of her fullblade, ready to deliver a heavy blow. The arrival of yet another who'd been hiding in the shadows did not help either, but when Aya greeted them with a more trusting view, Gajpl at least let her sword rest, though her hand remained on the hilt, planting it blade down and leaning it on her shoulder.<br/><br/>Gruffly, she began to reply to the others in turn, and explained to everyone present, "I, personally, am given great pleasure by killing fiends, and have no other motives for doing so myself, save the satisfaction it brings to destroy them. I do not think I can say the same for my friend Aya, although I'm certain that there are a few things she may relish about it all.<br/><br/>"Our employer is not one who is considered trustworthy by the public, if only because of their focus on demons," she continued. "They, first and foremost, wish to smash the Abyss and its invasion back. They are here to protect the world. What the rest of the world considers rather unsavory about them is that they also wish to learn more about how the Abyss works. Some do so for the sake of knowledge, and others do so to learn of better ways to fight off the demons."<br/><br/>She took a deep breath. "One needn't worry about the rewards. Our employer is more than able to pay you whatever you may wish, within reason. If you wish to have our situation better explained, you will follow Aya and I." At that, Gajol motioned for those who were willing to follow her into the church.<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
