He allowed the barbarian a chance to reflect and to feel something he no doubt thought lost. It wasn't until Gabriel broke the silence that Azzir decided to pipe in again, "Of course nothing will change the things that you have done. I wouldn't want to see those things changed. You are <em>exactly</em> what you need to be, and I have great use for that." He explained, slowly. "Redemption is a lie, Gabriel. No one is ever truly redeemed. The actions we have taken can not be washed away by words or actions in the future. Embrace who you've become, and let me help you realize the potential inside yourself." He paused, nodding ever so slightly, "You may see the fate that has befallen you as a curse, but I am here to show you that it is a glorious opportunity."<br/><br/>It was not a surprise that he wanted to know how he'd gotten the necklace, but that was information that hadn't yet been earned. Despite the faux intimidation that Gabriel attempted with the slow pressing of his words, Azzir merely shook his head, "As I said before my friend, I have truths about your past that you believed had been resolved." He leaned in over the table, "Your help furthering my cause, and I promise to you that I will help you shed light on the darkness that is your history. Real answers. Real resolutions."<br/><br/></span><hr/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: courier;"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 20pt;"><strong>Game Master</strong></span></span></div><hr/>
