Hector watched as she stepped into thin air from her ship's railing. His gaze remained steadfast. As with the crew before, he seemed only mildly impressed, stepping back a few steps to allow Aurix some space in which to 'land'. He had to admit, the drakken was rather well built, but that was unimportant. She was a ship captain, like he was. Respect would be given, as long as it was returned.<br/><br/>"The meaning of this, Captain, is quite simple." he said, his tone level, some would say cold. "I'm charged with defending this town against all enemies, foreign and domestic. It is my appointed duty." he said, his gaze wandering towards the town, at their ships' stern. "I can understand that conducting my duties might be a delay, an annoyance even. I've heard it all before, and will most assuredly hear it again." he continued, his gaze returning to her. "But that is simply the way things are. I'm told to search a ship, that is what I will do. I am sure my crew will find nothing, and you'll be on your way. And if you're lucky, you'll likely never have to speak to me again."
