[Surprisingly, the Scattered Bones leader doesn't flinch or really change expressions. He's heard some of the stories even if Dezel isn't one to sit down and share them. There's a book or two about the Shepherd Sorey, after all.]
Every time we see each other, my brother asks me if I want to join him in the Sparrowfeathers. And every time, my answer is the same.
I walk this path so that good people like you, Shepherd, don't have to get their hands dirty. That's the life I've chosen and everything that comes with it.
[His eyes close halfway. There's a hint of a smile.]
If the day comes that the Scattered Bones are no longer needed, I hope I can meet you there.
[They really ought to get going. Dezel makes a note of this and says his farewells, then leads Sorey back up the stairs and out into the alleyway. He thinks Sorey might need a moment. Dezel certainly does.]
