"Why are you a nightblade?" He tilts his head lazily while considering his response. "Because I saw it as a means by which I could make a difference- a great equaliser if you will. I was desperate to protect my family, and I would be damned if circumstances swept me under. It seemed the best option to me at the time. In reflection I find that I believe in our principles and the ideal that we can balance the inequality set forth by centuries of manipulative oligarchic practices and rule - that by the elimination of one life we can preserve a hundred more and act as a vanguard for progressive thought and creativity." He furrows his brow, not anticipating such saccharine answer.

Sio looks troubled and agitated. "I don't... My master commanded it. What...? What do you...?" "You cannot kill simply because it is commanded. I gave you my reason - now what is yours? If it really is you were forced into it or revenge or whatever that is fine. I would like to know."

Orthos found me and took me in... I... Do you not obey? Did you not have a master...?" Viasio appears deeply troubled and begins pacing.

"I had a master, but I did not always obey - to my own detriment. Anyways - I am still awaiting names from half of you and reasons for joining the blades. I did not realize two fundamental questions would be so difficult to answer."

I joined because after an unfortunate incident at the Mage collage in gold port I found myself on the run. Kaia offered safety and was willing to teach me. So I took her offer."
