  1. "I would ask no more of you."
  2. "I shall be able to explain better soon, but the things I do are neither purposeless nor random." He glances at Vespyr. "At least, most of the time they are not random. And I assure you that I do everything in my power to ensure that any good I do is lasting. Without exception." Brother Sparrow released the link. "Do you still plan to leave, or do you have something else in mind at present?"
  3. "All right, all right. There's no need to be rude about it." Jasper removes the sheath from his and lets it drop to the ground.
  4. "Do you want me to take it out again, or...?"
  5. Jasper calmly sheathed his knife. "You're welcome, by the way. Is the king alright?"
  6. "Oh, hi again, Mister Commander! I got the guy!"
  7. "Please, do surrender. I wouldn't want to hurt you any more than I have." Jasper rolled to retrieve his knife from where he'd dropped it earlier and leveled it at Darrin.
  8. "I do not have any particular purpose, I suppose, nor any grand plan. I simply do what I can to help those I encounter. Sometimes, that involves preventing untold death. Other times, it simply means helping someone to heal. By no means do I advise that you follow in my footsteps. I simply ask that you do what you can to do more good than harm."
  9. "As I said, I do my best to help. All I can hope for is that I will be able to help enough."
  10. Jasper blocked the punch on his forearm, then swung towards Darrin's gut with his other hand, and followed up with a straight punch towards his cheek. "Trust is important, you know. Don't just tell me you won't keep your word."
  11. Jasper stumbled back a step, but managed to keep his footing. "If I let you go, do you promise not to hurt anyone else?"
  12. Brother Sparrow unfolded the paper and focused on the image, then bit down hard on the inside of his cheek. With the small amount of pain that created, he opened a link with Vespyr and shared his sight.
  13. "One of the most important lessons I have learned is to never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by thoughtlessness. I believe that I can show it to you, if you are willing?"
  14. "I help people," Brother Sparrow replied simply. "As best and as often as I am able." Noting the piece of paper in Vespyr's hand, he asked, "What did Janice give to you?"
  15. "Ah, lovely. Would you mind sharing it?" Jasper then grabbed Darrin's knife arm at the wrist and proceeded to headbutt him.
  16. "To answer your earlier question, Vespyr, I have made this place my home because it is all I have left of the world I knew. I do not come here terribly often, but it is the one retreat I have when the rest of the world becomes too much for me. I aim to do no more harm because I have already done far too much. I do not seek absolution; those who I might have asked it from are long dead. Instead, I seek to make the world better by such means as I know how. Is this satisfactory to you?"
  17. Jasper punched him again, then pushed back against Darrin, knocking him off balance. "Do you happen to know a good way out of here?"
  18. Jasper crouched down to take the charge, letting the knife drop from his hand. As the other man crashed into him, he swung upwards with his other hand to strike the assassin squarely below the jaw.
