After all, I've even heard arguments between two paladins of differing orders who both servred Tyr."<br/><br/>Arioch arches an eyebrow at her, giving her a searching glance, as if requesting her to explain why she feels it neccessary to lower her voice.<br/><br/>"You're among friends, as far as I know, unless this young lady is a temptress of some sort."<br/><br/>He winks at the girl, who laughs then feigns a sultry glance at him.</em>
