"Well you'll be safe in here. I added you as friends to the wards protecting it. She isn't. I half wish she'd attacked me, the curse she'd have triggered isn't one on the nastiest, that's for if she comes inside, but complete ragdoll paralysis would have been amusing at least. REmember, temple guardian. Curses and defensive magic is my speciality."<br/><br/>She opens the door and ushers you into a dark space. You're on some kind of metal gantry, and the space in front suggests at least one of the floors is missing.<br/><br/>"First thing we do is you both sit down and tell me of any other threats that you know about. And you, Chris, you're going to explain what she said that freaked you out, and exactly what that bitches powers are. I can protect you both, I commited to do so when I said I was head of security, but I the first thing I know of  athreat is when it jumps out of the shadows! I have 3000 years worth of dirty tricks to pull on anyone threatening my friends, so I don't care how hard that bitch thinks she is, she's got another think coming!"<br/><br/>"That Rayn pissed me off. I may be an evil minded old bullying bitch myself, but there's few things I hate worse than other bullies, maybe because they're muscling in on my act. A family bullying is the worst..."<br/><br/>Her voice goes low as she mutters something to herself, but she mis-judges in the dark and you can both hear it. "Just playing were you? Didn't really mean it? Too sensitive was I? Well I hope you're sensitive too after 2000 years sitting in the dessert with sandstorms abrading your oversized arse. I just wish _I'd_ come up with the idea of hacking your nose off 500 years ago. That arab guy had the right idea."
