Calun'hai waited for her to answer, but when the glass slipped from her hands and shattered at her feet, he knew the request was not one she had been expecting. When she began to angrily come towards him, he shook his head. "Princess, There was no offence intended by the request. It was made because the Alpha has seen you, and thinks you are quite attractive. He could have chosen any one of the women currently in quarters in our land, but he specifically asked about you." he says, standing his ground. "Your agreement would also pave the way for our two peoples to help each other, but it cannot happen if we are allowed to die out. Some of the larger Kes'nal can pull loads you use several horses to move. Our hunters and trackers are unsurpassed. We can find anyone or anything that has a scent. I ask that you just set aside your anger and consider the good that can come."<br/><br/>He pauses for a moment, but then as she nears him, he rears right up to his full height, losing the slight hunch he had hen he first entered, and towering above her, he kept his hands closed and behind his back. "I will say one last thing Princess, and think before you act. I am an unarmed messenger, conveying the message I was told to. If you hit me, you are in breach of every rule there is regarding diplomacy and negotiation. I pose no threat to you, nor have I made any veiled threats. I can and will act in self defence if you strike at me, and I can assure you, at even half the size I am now, I could severely hurt you with one blow. I do not wish to do this when we have made it so that the war will end."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
