Snippet #1370698

Ryuu was the last one into the cave smiling as he pat his mount on the head ever so gently and waved him inside as well, finding a shadowed area alittle farther away from the fire then the rest, though still he accepted the cup with thanks. He sipped at it slowly, letting the warmth fill his form. Lenwë had curled up, and with that Ryuu leaned back against the shaggy beast using him as a over-sized pillow even though they were both damp. He listened to the words with peaked interest between the Templar and Severia, his bladed-weaponry returned to his form the sword strapped to his back and the Dirk to his waist.

His curiosity, turned into animosity at the word servert; his mind bringing forth flashes of his past as a slave on his travels to Antiva as a small child, though before the travels were blank to him, as if most of his childhood was an empty darkness. Though still he scoffed. "I'd no more serve a human then I would the darkspawn.." His voice seemed to echo thanks to the acoustics of the cave. Though soon he realized that his hostility was founded in the wrong area. How would this man know any better? A human Templar; men of the faith, well not his faith but theirs, were accustom to seeing Elves as no more then furniture to nobility, and with that how else would they be seen? Three elves; four counting the Magi, traveling with a woman of noble birth, to be honest he could see the logic from that conclusion. He let out an audible sigh and bowed his head, though he doubt it could be seen. "My apologizes Ser, but that word is one that has gotten many humans killed by my hand, and it still has a nasty draw upon my ever hidden temper." Ryuu was a docile person, if not happy-go-lucky. Which would seem strange due to his past chosen profession. He had been honest to all of the party, about his past, and what he had done. Though it was behind him, the memories of it ever haunted his dreams; and the fact he could never truly escape from it, dulled his will sometimes. Though never in company of his friends here.
