Makoru took a final spoonful of his stew and lowered his head, the cheery fire making him feel comfortable and lethargic. He looked up at the warrior, trying to see past the visor of his chitonous armor.

Makoru: "Are you still going to keep everything from me? Your name, why you saved me, and what happens next?"

The warrior chuckled a little and looked up.

Warrior: "Well, it seems you're not going to stop bothering me, so I'll tell you a little bit about myself. You can call me N."

Makoru: "N.... what does that stand for."

N shook his head.

N: "Maybe another time. I saved you because you were a person in need, and I would never deny a person in need. And as for what happens next... I feel that you should make the desicion. Although in your condition, I'm not sure you should go anywhere."

Makoru tries hard not to hit something, or maybe hurl his empty bowl at N. The guar growled a little, perhaps sensing Makoru's anger.

Makoru: "It's more complicated than you know. The world is at stake. I need to get back to my friends, so we can decide our next move."

N: "I understand perfectly well, outlander. Although sometimes it is best to do nothing."

Makoru stood up so fast the guar yelped.

Makoru: "Nothing? I am not going to stand by and do nothing while my brother threatens the lives of thousands, including my closest friends and my lover. I'm leaving. Thanks for everything, N, but I'm afraid I'll just listen to my own advice."

N chuckled, and Makoru whipped around.

Makoru: "Something funny?"

N stopped laughing and held Makoru's gaze for a solid moment, the silence descending over the clearing like a noble's cloak.
