Carnaduin struggled to not role his eyes. Fables were just made for insecure and shifty people who could not flat-out say things to people when they needed to. Why did he need to listen to a whole story about a lynx when a simple, 'Hey, beware of strangers' would have sufficed?
"Yes, but I'm not the lynx, or the wolf, or whatever other animals you want to attach to me in this story. I'm more like a hunter and I have found an injured dog in my bear trap and I feel sorry for it."
That was better right?
He had no idea what the old man was talking about anger for? Was he angry at him? What had he ever done to him? Well, he did call him a bear but that was just factually true. He shot a glance at Elinyra and just gave her a look that said everything was fine.
The man also spoke of power, but if he only knew just how little power Sedorohein had now compared to a few centuries ago. He once marched an entire island nation into the sea and they all walked willingly. Most of them died, but a few are now a seafaring race, so in the end it had all worked out well.
"But you are right, I do get something out of it, but it isn't so concrete as what you imagine. I get some excitement which is increasingly hard to come by the older you get. I want to watch the potential of your people go out and just...do."
