Lièrén nodded<br/><br/>"Indeed, he seemed to think that I had just given him one hundred gold coins as compensation incase you don't return, which is why I will now lay my own life on the line to make sure we succeed and you come back to him"<br/><br/>He laughed<br/><br/>"You know when I first came here and I said that I had to leave my village because I killed a couple of guards over a loaf of bread, I didn't tell you the truth..."<br/><br/>He took a deep breath and continued<br/><br/>"...the truth is, I broke into the mayor of my villages house and I stole all of the money he had, every single gold coin, that is why I cannot return, I am a dead man if I even walk close to there, they have been searching for me like mad ever since it happened, in order to escape, I had to kill twelve guards"<br/><br/>He looked up into Shie's eyes<br/><br/>"Please, I don't want this to affect our friendship, I did what I had to do, he was a greedy man, taxing us into poverty, I tried to take the gold back and give it to the people, but I never got that far and I had to flee for my life, taking the gold with me, now I help wherever I can across the land, seeking forgiveness for what I did, this is the final test for me, to see that I have changed, whether I live to see the end of this or not, I will protect you and end this threat"
