*turns gaze on to Reyoki* Because people tend to try and break shackles. When chains are cast on a warrior, the warrior will rage against their imprisonment. When you lock a wolf in a cage, it will try to force it's way out. It came to this due to the spirit of freedom, nothing more, nothing less. er...No offense, ma'am.

Axel, it is a gift to be able to serve one's comrades, even in this way.

"Do you not care at all about your own health?"

*mm* Quiet mutters, the sound coming more out of her throat in agreement with Hermes' assessment.

She looked up, having realized she must have spoken aloud. "Ah, none taken. Fighting at times such as this is the job of a Knight no matter which side of the battlefield one is on."

No, not at all. If it meant the life of another worthy, mine would be forfeit, by my own will. I care not for me, I care for all. 'Tis what I believe should be the creed of all who serve

Reyoki, it is good to hear you speak of duty, but...do you feel no duty to the people ,as well?

"Then you are a fool. If you care about the others around you you would do well to preserve yourself as well."

And do you see me wavering? Nay. I DID say it mattered how much you needed, did I not? I'm not such a fool, as you might think. But! A life of service, protection, and charity, is one of sacrifice.

"Some sacrifices are unnecessary. There were other means in which to supply me with what I needed."

Maybe. But they would require the sacrifice of another. And, this little morsel did not harm me. Now, if you'd asked for a body's worth, that may have been something I could not fulfill.

Blouses nonchalantly walked into the establishment. He looked around the place, examining the area.

Axel shook his head, "Children these days. You really should consider yourself. I don't need to drink human blood..."

He looked over the man again, "I do not require your body's worth. Drinking to the last drop is poisonous for someone like me, especially if the person dies before I can finish it."

*notices the new arrival* Were they short on clothing, ordid a sword catch you juuust right?

Axel, I'm not so knowledgeable of you or your kind, keep that in mind. I saw a need, I fulfilled it quickly and efficiently.

"The people as a whole will be fine. Of this, I am certain. Let us not speak of the nitty-gritty of politics here, though. It tends to sour the drink."

It sours many things, that it does. In the meantime, I must say it is good to see neutrality these days...

Axel nodded, "I am alone, as it were. Just keep that in mind."

That I will. Anything more upbeat to speak of? Thrilling victories, personal bestings, kicking a Loya-er...I mean..
