Draiss grinned wider at his forge-mistress, before enjoying the rest of the meal, alternating between teasing his salamander and getting a feel for the political climate.<br/><br/>The procession was only mildly interesting, until one of them spoke. Draiss paused, as the two constructs faded into view and stepped forward, flanking him and his salamander, before the god turned to Saarisi. "So, out of idle curiosity, what would like happen if I told the pompous newt to get lost? I ask only on a hypothetical situation, as I know blasting his sorry ass into the plane of water would likely be a bad decision. Maybe."<br/><br/>The two constructs paused their 'idle' weapon checks, glanced at each other, and then placed one placed a hand on his shoulder. "How about we handle this one sir?"<br/>"We think that you getting involved might be a bit of an... overreaction. After all, lots of breakable things about."<br/>"The stalls."<br/>"The people."<br/>"Those two dragons."<br/>"The buildings."<br/>"The city."<br/>"The entire plane."<br/>"So how about it sir? After all, this IS related to the reason you brought us."<br/><br/>He glared at the two constructs before shaking his head. "Fine, kill joys, just ensure that they understand I am not amused with them attempting to steal my rightfully acquired battle booty."<br/><br/>He bumped Saarisi with his shoulder, anticipating her complaining about being called battle booty, as the two constructs stepped forward. "As the escorting death squad constructs of Creator Draiss, Archdragon, Ascended Mortal, God of Choice, Godslayer, Planekiller, Avatar of Fate, Sorcerer of Dragon and Balefire, and many other, equally important titles, we politely advise you to withdraw, or the result will be a sound thrashing, a complaint to the Grand Sultan of the City of Brass, and loss of the privilege of hiring death sqaud constructs. Provided we don't get bored and kill you halfway into the fight. Any questions, or should we just get this party started?"<br/><br/>Draiss paused, and glanced at his constructs before shaking his head. "DEFINITELY been spending too much time around me. But they got the basic message right, which was 'fuck off.'"
