Ras only offered his brother a small smile and took a seat once inside. "I need one right now, but no. I wish this visit could be more pleasant but the truth of it tears at my heart." He took a moment to inhale deeply and collect his thoughts. "I need someone to raise Relene, and you're the only person I trust. She's... she's very sensitive to the emotions of those around her and it makes her miserable. I'm very much aware of how she's feeling and it makes me feel guilty that I'm not able to help her, she senses my guilt and it makes her feel worse. It's just an awful cycle she's stuck in."<br/><br/><span style="color: #b30000">"You would be surprised what it takes to get through to some people." </span>Nalo looked down at the merchant and shook her head.<span style="color: #b30000">"What can I say? You just hit a streak of really shitty luck. Those harpies had someone who cared enough about them to stand up for them. Sentinels, I need this man held until our investigation can be finished." </span>She returned to the front of the stall to get out of the sentinel's way and looked over the ledger with her assistant.<span style="color: #b30000"> "And to think all this because someone wanted a handful of gold from a bunch of stupid birds. Obviously, we can't give your harpies all of their gold back but I'll speak with Tyrande and I'll see about getting a few more shipments of meat sent your way and possibly some of their gold back."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
