Sangrias points a finger at Adamant. "Do not judge me as though you know everything. You do not. I am not some foolish drunkard that picks a fight with anything in sight."
Closing his other hand over his sword hilt, he continues. "I have every right to be 'tense'. You would be as well if you and your family was sought by trained killers. My brother died before my eyes, and my kin barely escaped a painful death. My 'saviors', consisting of hobgoblins and fiends, spout myths of dragons and gods. And this is all that has happened so far today."
Leering at Adamant, Sangrias sighs. "I can not sleep without wondering whether it will be the last time I close my eyes. My life is fraught with peril ever since you 'saved' my life."
"I believe I have reason to be a little anxious. Now, perhaps instead of standing around like lambs for slaughter, we should focus on the now. Yes?"

"We all have our issues. My family ARE trained killers and worse. Perhaps ask about those of us who were raised by wild slavers, or the ones who were slaves themselves."
"To whom are you defending your anger? Your motives are less important to me than your actions. I see your anger. Your motives are your own."
"But if you defend your anger against yourself, then your cries fall on deaf ears."

Sangrias smiles. "In my world, the intent behind the action is more important. Anyone can kill a man. Few can use it to their ends."
"Why then, was it important for you to save me, even now? I am of no concern of yours. You even admit it."

"You hear with your anger, Sangrias, not your ears. I never said you don't matter to me."
"My trial is to know the road of peace, but watch others struggle. Your life: your struggles, your pain, are you own. I would not attempt to take your cherished things from you."
"My goal is to show you that you can let them go yourself. So your motives are not my concern, so long as you do not do unnecessary harm to yourself or others."
Sangrias smiles. "In my world, the intent behind the action is more important. Anyone can kill a man. Few can use it to their ends."

Rin is sitting back down staring at the ground.
"Why do people always have to talk in such a way as to make me very confused?"

"You're avoiding the question, 'friend'. Why? I doubt a man of peace would save a man such as myself. A murderer.
I cannot run from my guilt... my pain... my life, try as I might. My hands are mired in the blood of the innocent. Letting go is not an option for me, or for my family.
So why, dear brother, would you save a selfish soul such as I?"

"Simple - so you have a chance to repent. My family heralds from the place that the orderly evil go when they die. It is the unhappiest place in the multiverse, or so I hear. Why would you want to go there?"
"You need more time to learn that every action has far-reaching consequences, even the saving of a lost soul."
"Your guilt cannot be run from, but it can be released. You have caged it like a beast to ward off your foes. But it only bites you. You must let it go and do not let it return."

Sangrias shakes his head. "Naïve fool."
Bowing his head solemnly and closing his eyes, he mutters. "I have prayed for forgiveness for every life I have ever taken, and I bleed for it. I don't kill for my own sake, but for my families.
Besides, absolving my 'guilt' would do nothing to stop those like Beni seeking to kill me for crimes I didn't commit."

Adamant nods and smiles. "As you wish. I have found that the world is your mirror. You will understand in time."Sangrias shakes his head. "Naïve fool."Bowing his head solemnly and closing his eyes, he mutters. "I have prayed for forgiveness for every life I have ever taken, and I bleed for it.
