"Hello Lady Orsinio. I am glad to see that it was you who came to greet me." I could feel Mathias move to beside me as the perfect gentlemen knight that he was the moment he sensed my discomfort. "You have me at a disadvantage Eolsath...I do not..." "You do not know me and yet you wonder how I am so aware of who you are." "Yes." "All in good time Milady." He pushed the hood completely from his head revealing that besides not having eyes he also had no ears and it was the strangest thing I had ever seen in my life. As if sensing my discomfort his lips contorted into an almost sad appearance. "I am sorry that my appearance is so frightening Milady but understand that there is no one who hates it more then I do...trust me on that." "What reason would I have to trust...someone who surrounds a city of my Kingdom with a vast army." "This army is of no threat to you Milady." "I do not understand." "Our fates Milady are intertwined. We were fated to be at this spot on this day." "Stop speaking riddles and just come right out and say what is true." "The truth." The creature twisted its face into what I can only assume was the closest it got to a smile before calming itself and looking at me once again. "It has been so long Milady since I thought I could be truthful." The creature would take out a knife and when he did I pulled out my sword and Mathias lunged immediatly in front of me, but the creature stepped back towards the other Trolloc and slashed one across the neck with such force it took his head nearly off. "The truth Lady Orsinio is that this...this creature is the thing that I despise above almost all things." The Trolloc slumped to the ground gushing blood from the wound, but the other Trolloc made no attempt to move and didn't even seem to realize that anything had happened to the partner. "Why did you do that?" "I did that to show you where my loyalty lies." "Why would we trust you. Your are not even human." "It is very much a quagmire I find myself in Mathias."
