[Naked Crook]

Xyrho glared at Rah'jesh for a moment, before lowering his blade. Xyrho: I am not going to kill you, if that is what you are asking. Xyrho paused. Xyrho: It was never my intent. Xyrho retracted his blade, as he placed it back at his side. Xyrho: You are correct, though. WHen you say that we were used, in the same way The Brutes were. We were lied to, and we were deceived. Xyrho paused. Xyrho: Our crimes are no different than those of The Brutes. We are no more innocent than they are. Our actions during the war, and during the Schism were no more, or less, abhorrent than theirs. They killed us, and we killed them. One is no worse than the other. Xyrho scoffed. Xyrho: There is no honor in letting our hatred for the Brutes fester like an open wound. There is no wisdom in allowing that festering wound to determine our future. If the Council is too cowardly to accept this, then they need not know what I am doing here, today.
