~Dirk with Mina~<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"I'm Mina..." she informed, "Drik.." she said.. then blinked, surprised and embarrassed,  she said it wrong,"dirk...sorry" she laughed lightly. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Dirk chuckled lightly as he said, "Please do not worry Mina I have most certainly been called far worse than Drik before.  But come and let me introduce you to the friends that I myself have only just made today since I spend most of my time outside of the valley seeking for those that have not yet found there way here."  Dirk watched with what must have been an look of amazement as he smiled watching the young woman fold her wings to her back.  He had never seen any Were's of the Avian species before and she truly was remarkable to behold first hand.  "Please forgive me milady if I seem to rudely stare at you but I have never seen a Were in Avian form before.  The Elders of my clan used to speak of Were's like yourself but they always made things sound as if your particular race had fallen into myth."<br/><br/>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"Ann, thank you for such an offer, and would gladly take you up on it anytime." he allowed himself a smile as he spoke, not having reason to do so in many years.  He stopped short as he heard the rage building within another.  His voice was angry and full of venom, "Pardon me ladies,"</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Muireann watched Jerome go with a slight frown on her face.  She spoke very softly to Nerissa in their own language which to other ears would sound like a series of clicking and light dolphin like sounds.  "You see how quick they are to anger that is the reason it is so dangerous for you to be up here upon the surface with no one to watch you.  Granted they may have very good reasons for becoming so angry but even the best of people can do great harm in the heat of anger.  I will support your desires in wishing to come up here but I shall insist using the authority of one of your fathers household guards that I be told and allowed to accompany you on such journeys."<br/><br/>
