[IRP] Return to the Dread Isle

[Swift_Assassin]

Tiras' words about starting an uprising caught Lennox' attention. He just glared at the man, wondering if he even knew what he was talking about. If only he knew how many uprisings have been squashed in Etruria since the annexation. He'd be better biding his time or joining up with someone who is. Renata's comment about 'filling your pockets' just got under his skin. It made his skin crawl, thinking that people could be that callous. He popped up to his feet and stared daggers at Renata. "Say that to the people of Eturia. Say that to every mage affected by this perversion of St. Elimine's teachings. Hell, say that to the true faithful who witnessed the destruction of the Tower of the Saint," He yelled, getting rather heated for something that he honestly felt he had no stake in. He felt no connection to his homeland, wasn't a mage, and felt that St. Elimine can't possibly look on him favorably with the gruesome kills under his belt. But it had to be said.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He then sat back down. "Forgive me, I don't know what came over me. What I meant to say was," changing his gaze towards Raye, "I helped save her from a cult, two actually," Lennox said, implying the Lycian Church was one as well, "and she followed me all they way here, apparently. It's why promised to keep her out of trouble. Because I intended that originally, but she followed me anyway. Anyway, introduce yourself to the others." Lennox ordered, like he was Raye's father or something. Which is odd since looks wise they are about the same age, but realistically, she's his senior. He did note that Raye already knew what the Dragon Gate was. With how scatterbrained she can be, the fact she knows what it is just raised his blood pressure a bit.
