"Indeed, all you've said is quite true. But I suspect you'll find the weapons more familiar than you suspect, and the armor less of an encumbrance than it appears. While you lack specific training, you are in prime physical condition, and showed no hesitation to face down two armed men, in broad daylight, to defend a woman you hadn't even spoken to, yet. And then ambushed more, alone, armed with weapons simpler than these. There are few mortals who might have attempted what you did, let alone accomplished it."<br/><br/>She smiles again, and moves a little closer. "I realize you may not realize your own importance, yet; after all, if it were raw killing power I needed, I could easily provide it, myself. No, what I need is an<em>expert.</em>One who can work independently, creatively, and efficiently. One who has demonstrated courage, leadership, and intelligence under pressure. One who has demonstrated adaptability in the face of unfamiliar circumstances, and bravery in the face of virtually impossible odds. I do not need a warrior, I need a Champion, someone who can guide this world back onto its proper path. Who knows? Maybe you'll see legends written about you."
