"I'm sure you would enjoy the easy way. Most cowards do. And don' give me crap about it's cunning, not cowardice, because I don't believe it. Take one more step toward me and I'll blast ye where you stand, and then I'll bring this building down atop us. You think because you have a numbers game going against me that you have the upper hand? I scoff at you. You think because you brandish a spear at me I'll spill and tell you everything you want to know? You must not think very highly of me then. I'm a soldier of fortune in a world with a very small client list. I'm not about to betray anyone who has hired me for a job, particularly not while I'm on the clock. Perhaps in the future, should you ever seek to contact me first, I'll be more willing." With eyes narrowed to just above slits, Badb fires her stored radiation at the man with the spear. "The name is Badb."
