11. The weak swordsman clings to his instrument. It is better you have a sword, but death must lie under your fingernails, if need be. Learn death with your elbows, death with your knees, and death with your thumbs and fingertips. It is said death with the tongue is useful, but I find words too soft an instrument to smash a man’s skull.

He shook his head. “You have no need to apologize. It was just my way of life. An unsavory one.”
"Im... Still sorry you had to go through anything like that... For so long...."
“I’ve never known anything else.” Zay leaned forward. “What was your lifestyle like?”
".... Given. Controlled, but safe and with excess... Most things could be brought to me on a silver platter. But... Most of it wasnt anything I necessarily really wanted. I suppose I was lucky, yet.... Not content" She seems thoughtful

His ear twitched. "Alright. Inside or outside the barrier?"
"Outside, if you will."
"I will." He grabbed his tea and sipped the rest of it. "Okay, I'm ready. Lead the way."
They walk outside. "Ready?"
He bowed, then rested his hand on the hilt of his katana. "Ready."
Tohono draws a mismatched pair of longswords, one of them made of black stone, the other of ornate damascus steel, setting both tip first into the ground. "Ready." he says, his deep voice rumbling.
Teruo seems a bit surprised. "Huh, you seem different."

Tohono chuckles. "It's due to an...interesting relationship I have with one of my weapons... I'll explain at a later date." He says, his blue eyes seeming to pierce into Teruo.
"Nah, it's good ta get this off my back. It's... my sister was always the responsible one. She took care of me, but then when it was my turn ta take care o' her, I failed... and saw her brains get blown out. That's when I decided I would do somethin' abou' all the criminals, from the petty to the murderous."
"Glad you did so... I was in a tough spot, but I only went down." They confess. "How long ago was that?"
"Years. I was about seven, then. She was fifteen. It's been more'n a decade now..."
"I see... What was your biggest catch?"
She brightens up. "Oh, definitely the Murderer of Screlborough. 'e was a vampire, but 'e came in the night an' didn' even drink 'is victim's blood. 'e would stab 'em and fly off. No one could touch 'im for years, but I brought 'im in with a well placed boot to the face."
"Nice. How did you catch him?"
"Well, it was after some time. I 'ad been chasin' 'im for weeks, and stopped two o' 'is murders, but not caught 'im. Then, I was in a store at evenin' when 'e walked in, looking for some new garden shears; ya see, I 'ad broken 'is last pair. I knocked 'im ta the ground wi' my shotgun, then crushed 'is 'ead till someone brought some 'andcuffs."
"Why did he not turn to mist?"
"A' first, element o' surprise, then cause I had a Pulser wi' me. 'e slowed down time for us, allowin' the other lawkeepers ta get there."
"I see. Now what legal code do you use?"
"I use my moral code if I'm somewhere that don't 'ave one, bu' generally there's a code o' honor lawkeepers follow. O' course, in cities I follow their laws."
"What if the city has a law code that say, disagrees with your moral code? Allows torture? Guilty till proven innocent? Etc."
She growls. "Mos' lawkeepers would follow those laws. But I wouldn't, considerin' those laws were what caused me an' my sister to be left out in the Sinks in the first place."
"Good to hear someone like you has reason, in a world gone mad."
"Indeed. Now, tell me, is there anything ya've done that ya're not proud o'?"
Lysander sighs. "Yes. I was in a hellish place known as Carceri were it lead me to do... to do terrible things. Aweful things."
"Of ya're own choice?"
"Mmm... I would say no, although it is up for debate."

He twists out the way of each & dives for another strike on No. 1 (weakened one)
Hit: 3 Dmg: 4
And stays aloft.
Miss. It bounces off the armor. The gnolls fire at him again.
Attack: 19 Damage: 3 ttack: 12 Damage: 3
He looks rough *& mortal* as the arrows make it to near under his wings, but he holds on, another stab at No. 1
Hit: 18 Dmg: 6
& flies as high as he can again.
The gnolls snarl as he flies out of range. One arrow hits the wounded one in the abdomen and it howls in pain. Valian’s turn.

You feel compassion for someone who has felt less sorrow than I, but I bet once she murders someone, you'll still care for her, won't you? You have no legitimate reason to hate me. I've done nothing worse than what you've accomplished.
