She looked at him. "Aye mighty and divine powers heal and smite. The dragons are the same way no doubt." she shrugged. "It isnt usually the wrongs and rights that bother me. It is the deception, lies, and the ignorance of what is and should remain sacred." she exhaled.
"This world is shitte, full of bastards who keep their suits clean while everyone else is forced to bleed to survive."

"That's a pretty dark way of looking at life."
He looked out the window to his left for a second before facing forward.
"I like to think we make our own fate."

She exhaled deeply. "When I was a freelance runner. I met so many people and saw many things. I danced and saw smiles. I experienced a lot of joy and hope. But now that I've decides to remain in one place things have caught up with me. And people have known me long enough to see right through me. It sucks."

He shrugged.
"So what? That has nothing to do with life, just with you."
He seemed to be getting braver and more comfortable as time went on.
"People will see and say what they will. That doesn't change who you are. As for the past...well. That I'm not sure how to deal with. All I know is....it always has a way of catching up with you."

"Not something I am used to dealing with. Changing who I am was never an issue. It is realizing that even I dislike who I've become. I mentioned before... I am turning a new leaf."

"Eh, we all have something with dislike about ourselves. I'm a coward, and I hate it. You threaten to kill taxi drivers, and you hate it. I can understand."
He laughed....clearly joking.

She rolled her eyes and grinned at his joke.
"So how much longer do we have to go?"

"Almost there."
He'd keep driving!
After about an hour of silence, he'd pull off the side of the road and kill the engine. Hopping out, he moved to the back and got his pack, offering her one as well.
"Lead on then, Ma'am."
Yeah she wasn't gonna get him to stop.

She was already ahead of him.
"Aye lets get goin' a couple of cripples ready to stare down the barrels of The Punks pre-apocalypse arsenal." he thought it was scary her pulling out her lil' pistol she wondered how he'd hold his composure.

"A-a-a-arsenal?"
He moved to catch up with her.
"What do you m-mean? I thought he was....a junker..."

"Territory One is a hub for the black market and black business. Not all of my previous job was entirely legal, passing through here I got to see a lot of back doors and dark alleys."
After the big war weapons and things became useless..." she looked back at his paling face. "Not for The Punk."
"The dragons and gods leave him alone despite knowing full well the dirty money that builds in this place... That and some profit from him just as much."

"I thought the Dragons left him alone because Prota-"
His mouth snapped closed.
IDIOT.

Her curls whipped around quicker than someone might think possible. But she steeled herself with a big exhale. Her first thought was to pin him to a wall fangs bared but that might have him pass out. Unless he is faking his cowardice of course.
But no... She'd keep walking.
"I know of Prota they are no secret. Some of the kids I knew were sold in the orphanage I grew up in. Slaves are sold here. What else could be surprising?" she arched a brow to him.

"They're just....evil people. That's all. And they don't handle things like that well."
He was not looking her in the eye. Definitely not. Nope. Nope nope.

She took a step back side by side with him staring at him.
Staring...
"Yeah evil people do evil things... Are you familiar with those things?"
