Tezztor stood up and walked around the fire, ' One might argue that it is life who left me behind itself, to rot in this hole. Fending for my life on a regular basis trying to avoid capture." he seemed to trail off momentarily, as if something was bothering him about the subject. "While being a raptor might be a true blessing, it can also be a curse. My family and loved ones didn't seem to particularly care for it. Instead they sold my hide to the government under the promise they would cure me." he suddenly got really angry and flashed his blade around. "There is no cure for what we are! They only sought to make me a weapon that they could use. At first I didn't mind being dropped into this place and doing their bidding, which usually just meant rooting out and killing resistance members. After a while though I realized I wasn't a prized member of any team, I was merely a irreplaceable asset of murder." Fumbling back and forth he finally sat down near the fire, looking her dead in the eyes, the fire dancing in his like some enraged demon. "From being disowned to being used, to being alone.... to be one of us is to truly know loss. We loose our lives, our loved ones and our sense of security as we run like wounded dogs from those that would chase us. I don't want or need pity, I just want to vent my frustration on every living thing that gets near me till there are none left. It's all I know how to do anymore."
He resigned from his speech to sharpening his blade, almost as if nothing had been said at all. Sparks flew effortlessly from the blade almost as if the very soul of the weapon were trying to escape it, repentance for all the lives it has ended. The air was at a dead still in the cave, not a sound other then the crackling fire. After what seemed an eternity he finally snapped back to life, flicking a blade out of his pocket and throwing it to her feet, sticking blade first in the ground. "Your blade, you might need that in the days to come" he said without emotion.
