Draiss looked down at Reekesha, before shaking his head. "You saw my fury that day. The fury of a dragon that came to a lair and found someone scaring his children. I lost control. I am a sorcerer, my emotions, my passion, my desire are both my strength and my weakness. I am disgusted by that day, none of that was needed. A cool head, twelve seconds, and that child would have been on the floor, unable to fight. Instead, I lost my head, I raged, and I did more to scare my children and the women that looked to me for protection than that child ever did. And all he wanted was to have someone to look to him as those priestesses did to me. If this is your response to that, then come to me. I will not come to you, and I am not going to harm you any more than I have to bring you back. I think Keeshara is still alive, after all, her statue still stands. So I have no real reason to rage at you, taint. Release my ally, and return to whence you came."
