"What I'm saying is if this Ophidian decides to override my decisions on Karrie's life I'll have The'kal intervene and remove him from the situation." He nodded to Kalian and finished serving the plates.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8000ff">"No they're not. You've been alive to know better. There's... types of people and everyone can be categorized. People and animals. Athena and I may be different people, but she's no different than I am. The'kal is incapable of growth or change. She'll always be a liability, she'll always be a danger. And you, you're like Ashia. Fiercely loyal to who you love, but a victim of your own instincts and past, and turned into a monster by the actions of others. No offense, my love." </span>She smiled to Ashia then looked back to Order.<span style="color: #8000ff"> "The'kal is capable of greatness, sure. But look at her past, look at all she's done. What would you do if she accidentally killed your mortal lover? Or your child if you ever had one?"</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #ffff00">"Does she not feel bad or is she less emotional as The'kal? Those are two very different and equally dangerous traits." </span>He took a deep drink of his ale and shrugged.<span style="color: #ffff00">"Lass, people call me a war criminal fer doin' the same thing this Chaos woman has done. I fully condone scorched earth policies. But ye've seen me soul and I'm yer friend now. It's possible she does love you but is just really bad at showin' it." </span>He nodded and looked down into his mug.<span style="color: #ffff00">"Truth be told, if someone hurt a person I loved I'd do the same... I have done the same. I ain't proud of it though, that's fer sure."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
