Ruric looked at his sister, it had been a strange thing for her to lie to him like that, telling him their equipment was in another room. Was she purposely trying to fry Rowan's nerves? This idea bothered him, but he dismissed it to briefly laugh at Schal, with a light chuckle. He then overheard Silvack, and his want for empty killing. A true predator only hunts for food and at times for self defence, a monster kills other living organisms for sport. Ruric didn't say anything, because he kills other humans, but if it wasn't for his humorous attitude on life; he'd hate himself too. In fact, if it weren't for Irodien army adopting him and his sister into the military, he'd probably never looked twice at this career choice. He finally dismissed the depression that clouded the air in the room, and smiled at Dratcen, "Hi, thank you so much for your hospitality mister, my name is Ruric, and this is my sister Monika." Ruric gesturing toward his sister.

Monika simply nodded, as nice as the wizard had been, she had sensed ulterior motives behind the strange couple. And even at that, they were still strangers, so Monika was opposed to Ruric's hand-in-hand trustworthy attitude. After all, Monika had very little trust in majority of her team, like Rowan. If the man had been paid better from the merchant, he could have easily turned his back on everyone in this room, She kept her thoughts to herself, but it was easily noticeable that she disliked the situation she was in.
