(silco offers his hand to him and it is taken without pomp or delay. voryn's fingers are at a neutral temperature but quickly warm clasped in his enemy's.)

There is nothing shameful in a hug. (a show of camaraderie. a hello and a goodbye. a short or long appreciation. a hug is a nod of mutual respect and that is only offered to silco once more:) It is like a handshake of the body. If you wish for our exchange to be quick, you should come forward to rest your chest against mine.

(lonely, he would simply benefit from one even from a man he hates.) As you will not do so, we must wait a while and speak to one another.

(in a demonstration of physical power, voryn aims silco where the cavernous chamber's wall curves closest to them. he will guide him back to it, eyes never once straying from his. the scarred one is an object of great curiosity. perhaps now, engaged in something mutually beneficial, he may ask about it.

but there is an order to what voryn would like to know.)

What is your greatest purpose, Silco? It cannot solely be destruction. Humans are possessed of vices as Chimer are; you have not been spared mortal desires.
