Althior looks at the book, slams it shut, and lays it on the table, "Now is not the time to be day-dreaming about your love interest kid. I'm usually in your situation right now, but that's not when I'm about to get into a war. It's your first quest, so I'll cut you some slack. Watch your tongue, and keep your eyes on the prize. Always be prepared, and you'll do just fine!" Althior was a bit pissed at this character. He had seen him goggling over this Cinna girl, while he had to leave Alexis, the one that he'd loved most, behind in Eubric as he set off for war. That's all soldiers did, leave their loved ones to battle other people with different opinions. What a misunderstanding! War was not, and would never be, his cup of tea. That's why he was glad he was leading these men. They'd play the game of war his way.
Althior turned to the pumpkin head. "Would you quit your childish behaviors? As I told Arthur, we're heading to war, and I have no time for children in my Party!"
OOC: Nothing against you guys, I'm just setting things up for Althior in the quest.
