"Forced to kill me?" Crask let out a harsh bark, he could feel his anger building up inside him. "I am sick of your preaching, you trust the word of this dragoness over mine? I offered you friendship and protection, she offers you nothing but death, and yet you throw your life away at her whim?" Slowly, using his experience he manouvered the confrontation towards the front of the cave, his back to the entrance, ensuring he was able to watch both the pirate and dragoness simultaneously. He stood in a fighter stance, "If this is what you want, then we shall fight.....I am ready".
