Rebirth Height 8 - Orb 1

[shorterinperson]

Hello? [ Alanna gazes steadily into the orb with the practice of someone who does this sort of scrying often. ]

I am Sir Alanna, of Pirate’s Swoop and Olau. Although my guests have assured me they haven’t the slightest idea of where either of those or even Tortall is.

I know his Majesty the King is in charge here, but I’m more interested in our fighting population. [ She says ‘our’ not to claim it as hers, but to emphasize that she intends to be a part of it. ] How are you organized? More importantly, when and where do you train together?

If you were aware then you wouldn't have needed to be told.

[ Pointless argument is a go. ]

If you could have supported your argument for readily agreeing to help this foreign land we wouldn't even be having this discussion.

.... and just because a person can make their own decisions doesn't make it the right one.

I never knew that trying to encourage someone to think or examine an issue from all angles was such a crime.

[She tries to end this.. or change the subject...]

Let's just agree to disagree. You proceed your way, I'll proceed my way.

I supported my argument. These people have done nothing to earn your distaste. I, on the other hand, have increasingly more reasons to trust them and less to listen to you.

[She wasn't going to drop this...was she?]

You just met them, that hardly is long enough to determine who they truly are, what their beliefs are, or anything. They could be perfectly upstanding individuals like you assume, or something entirely different. I'm just waiting to see before I decide.

[My professors would love it if all my term papers presented only one argument based only on my "feelings".. or whatever this woman was going on about]

Of course.. because I disagree with you. That's the only reason you have to dismiss me entirely.

[Which was foolish.. sometimes people with differing opinions had something worthwhile to contribute. She didn't agree with Charles all the time.. but she still respected his opinions and sometimes he was right.]

Good day, Ma'am.
