Jiao is able to intimidate them, and Dailia stands back, watching as they glare  at him, then one says "It is you who is suicidal if you believe you can make a dent in our master."   Pride filled him as he glared.   Dalia smirked.  "I think my team is more then powerful enough to take your master on, as  I did not need to raise my blade.  And all are as compatent as this young man.  I would talk if you value your pathetic lives."<br/>The bandit looked from one to the other, and smirked.  Then lowered his head as the other said "We...Masters location is hidden even from us often.  Is...contact in town we meet with.  We fail master have hide anyway.  Three men have been flayed and skinned for it, and our skins worn by him as robes.  He is terrible."<br/>"We will protect you from that- IF you cooperate."<br/>==<br/>The bandit looked at Ivan, then at Bound, and saw fierce death in their eyes.  The second, unconcious, looked only into the dirt.  But terror seemed to fill him.  "he is Mighty.  Stronger then you, then any mortal man.  And terrible.  He would Consume your every ounce of courage, what little there is from striking in shadows.  We..."<br/>He shuddered, glaring at them.  "I do not...know where he is.  We meet him at times, and I c..could point you to our hi..hideout, but he does not stay their with us.  His occupation is terror, his name is the Rat.  It is all we have ever known him as."<br/>--<br/>The second bandit at the camp sight lowered his head.  And finally spoke.  "What little...we know of our master, for we do not live with him- it would be risky even for us, he abides alone and hidden even from all but his direct subordinate, our contact- Is...he loves terror and fear, and once was from the south, deep in the terrible desert.  Rat, for such he goes by, is a deadly master who once terrorized an entire kingdom there.  Anathama drove him off."
