Sithis moved his head to where most of the sound waws coming from, and nodded in agreement. "Ready whenever you are." He told Jiaan.

Galvon looked at Tri'aa very determinedly.
-"We six have power. Divided, we can't do much. But together, with a plan, we can take them out. We hit their weak points with powerful and precise attacks."

"It's too little, too late." Tri'aa insisted softly, shaking her head in denial. "If it were six against a smaller number, then yes. I think maybe you could win. But six just isn't enough, don't you see? No matter how good you are, or how well you plan, or how strongly you hit them, it's not enough. I'm sorry, Galvon, but I just don't see how it could work..." She averted her face, looking out into the dark plantlife around them.

What Tri'aa said infuriated Galvon. Galvon stepped in front of Tri'aa and looked her dead in the eye, now showing aggravation.
-"It's because of that people like us have failed before. No one had hope, and no one believed in them. It's because of people like you that all previous attempts have failed. Well I for one will still try, and if I die like my parents, I could only be proud to say that I fought and died for justice."

Tri'aa blinked, her eyes huge in her face, cringing at his anger; she hated when people were angry, especially with her. "I-" She opened her mouth to speak, but nothing came out. What could she say to that? It was true. Better to die doing something right that to live and be a coward while watching those in the right die. "I'm sorry."

A man walks up to the door and opens it "why thank you sir" Jiaan gets out followed by Sithis and then Tamar. "We will be on are way" after walking up the stairs he turns to the other two "all right I say we split up and search what do you guys think?"

Galvon calmed down and just looked at her.
-"Don't be sorry. Just say that you'll help. Can you honestly say that you'd prefer to live your life, never having freedom, never able to see what you can do? Would you prefer to feel to have no purpose or to fight for a justifiable cause?"

Sithis looked around the room. "Not yet. First, we need a place to meet outside the mansion." He said, while nodding to the guests that were passing by.

"... Alright." The word came out as a deranged squeak. Tri'aa coughed once, and, her voice full of uncertain determination, she said it again; "Alright. I... I'll help you. I don't know what I can do, but I'll help, if I can."

Galvon jumped up and clapped his hands, smiling widely. This was fantastic! Tri'aa actually said yes!
-"Well, first thing, um... do you know where I could find fancy people clothes?"
But Galvon soon heard a rustle and a rather ugly and dim-witted-looking man stepped out of the bushes. He stood a bit taller than Galvon did, but Galvon was still hunching. The dim-witted-looking man was dressed in lavish clothing, and had a stupid grin across his face.
-"Well, well, Tri'aa... plotting with someone from the Underground? And about revolution, no less? That would be quite unfortunate if anyone found out..."
The man made a low chuckling that didn't exactly make him sound more intelligent. Galvon took a step back and glared at the intruder. On several occasions he had heard of this imbecile trying to get Tri'aa to marry him, but like all suitors, she had refused him, too.

"Oh, this is so not good." She muttered, her voice barely audible. When had he gotten there? How had he snuck up on them? Obviously, he'd heard quite a bit, if not everything. She straightened her back and glared imperially at him. "Indeed." She said frostily, ice practically dripping off her tongue along with the word. She forced her voice to hold a calm she most certainly didn't feel, even though it would be fairly obvious to anyone paying attention that she was freaking out. And it was truly amazing that someone her height could glare down her nose properly at someone taller than she, but Tri'aa managed it quite well. "No one's going to find out, though."

The thick-skulled one just grinned wider.
-"You're quite right. If you marry me. If you don't, then I guess the guards would take you and your little freak friend here in captivity. I'd expect you'd be execu-"
At this, Galvon snapped. He stood straight, meeting the fool at eye-level. He then leaped forward, and landed squarely on the man's chest, hands on each side of his face, scratching from Galvon pressing so hard. Galvon then proceeded to hiss with his teeth clenched.
-"YOU-WILL-NEVER-HARM-TRI'AA!"
Galvon then opened his mouth wide, and a rush of air could be heard. The poor fool's soul, like a thick mist, was drug slowly from the man's body. Emotions, thoughts, memories, these all flooded Galvon's mind. Galvon let it all flush away, however. He was not interested in knowing this man. He was only concerned with getting rid of the threat to Tri'aa. Galvon felt the man thin out and wither like a dead flower, and soon he was laying in front of Galvon, dead.

"Right" Jiaan looks around trying to see any good spots from where he was standing. "Hay Tamar you no any places where we can meet up that are easy to get to".

"Oh my God." Her hands flew up and covered her mouth as she backed away, into a tree. "Oh my God." Tri'aa was terrified. She'd never seen aything like that before. "He's dead, isn't he? Dead, oh my God..." Tears welled in her eyes. Everyone usually coddled her; this was definitely not the sort of thing she was used to.

Galvon slowly turned to Tri'aa to find her panicking. Galvon immediately calmed down and walked over to her. He wished he could touch her and calm her, but that wouldn't do well. He might hurt her.
-"Tr-Tri'aa? You're right. He is dead. And I'm afraid to tell you, but there very well may be more death. I suppose you wouldn't be used to this as a noble, but to us from Necropolis, death is part of daily life. It's natural for people to die, and it happens every day."
Galvon stood dumbly, not knowing what to do, when he finally turned around and inspected the corpse's clothes. Just his size. Galvon stripped the man down to his underwear and went into the bushes, dragging the body with him. He put on all the clothing and stepped out of the bushes, brushing himself off. Due to how the outfit was made, Galvon could barely hunch over, so he stood quite tall. He walked over to Tri'aa, placing gloves on his hands. Galvon looked at Tri'aa with a sympathetic look.
-"Please, calm down. Everything will be fine."
