(their banter would be enjoyable if not for the fact that she is who she is and he is who he is. if they were anyone but themselves, voryn is almost certain that they would get along; he has always respected obstinacy in others. unfortunately, there is over three hundred years of prejudice wound up in an inherently judgemental elf.)
That is a pity, as there is strength and honour in a name. I could give you one, n'wah, should you think it unwise to provide me with your own.
(though it is said patiently in understanding, there is no mistaking n'wah as anything but a foreign slur.
this discussion is not being conducted in the swarthy council chambers of the resdayniil, where he once might have swallowed his pride to allow another councillor to disgrace the sixth house's honourable name. to protect his lord and friend's reputation as unifier and king, he had sacrificed much, but no longer. least of all to this beast who thinks that it can cow him into retreating.
voryn doesn't retreat. he doesn't even consider it to be an option.)
There are servants tending to others nearby. They will draw another chaise close to my own if you'd only ask them to do so. (he does, however, shift into a lean. it is such a slight distance toward her that he barely seems to have moved at all.) I can't imagine you'd wish to remove me by force, as that would make a spectacle of you in a public forum.
never be sorry, I AM HAVING A BLAST!!
