[LOG] In Which War is Discussed

Mar 22, 2008 19:59

Dramatis Personae: Eva and Cyrus
Setting: In front of the Mead Hall minutes after Dinah's arrest

Eva says "War often inspires worst in men who use trouble as cover for their vileness. But war also inspires best in men on other times."

Cyrus shrugs, "It's been my experience that war does nothing but kill men."

Eva smiles "It inspires hope. Desire to live. To help those in need."

Cyrus says, "So does rum."

Eva laughs, sincerely.

Eva nods "Well. Rum, too, kills people sometimes."

Cyrus smiles but it does not reach his eyes. "Good point. I'll stick with the rum, then. At least it tastes better than war."

Eva nods and bows "Fare well. I hope captain gets freed soon."

Cyrus nods, "She'd better. You be careful out there."

Eva grins "Always!" and with a woosh of the wind, nimble jadean is gone in the crowd like bird in a bamboo grove.
