Knights of Tezoth

- Ha-ha-hah! I'm beginning to understand your title better and better, my lady Nelia, you're simply a balm for a weary soul, I could spend a lifetime with you! You know, I had this one case: I was hunting a counterfeiter on orders from Her Ladyship. The scoundrel had simply flooded the market with his forgeries, fearing nothing! Here and there, folk were deceived and unjustly detained. I searched and searched, pulled some strings, and finally a lead came through. I burst in on him, and he raised a pistol at me, saying — you're done for, I'm so-and-so, future lord of the criminal underworld. And I listened and listened, then just smiled — standing calmly, hands relaxed and unarmed. He stares at me in confusion, got nervous, and I just smiled right back at him. He gave himself up in the end, thinking I had backup outside the door or something. Otherwise, he'd have shot me dead without a second thought. So, a smile can help you in the most unbelievable situation, but wasting it carelessly isn't dignified either! I wonder how much damage I'd have taken from it? Ha-hah! - Lester pours mineral water into a free clean glass and offers Radost to refresh her palate. - Mountain spring, top-shelf. I'd like to see you again after today, my lady, our kingdom is far too fractured, and your company truly warms the heart. Though I suppose you rarely get out.
