Drake didn't talk to Mord, he threatened to kill him if he so much as tried to walk in Neri's direction.
Bull****.
"Let me kill these sorry *******s. I have a good reason."
"And why don't you let me do my job, as soon as we get what we came for, you'll be free to go and do as you please."
"They have my wife."
"Listen I'm sure your, a whats the word I'm looking for, lets go with decent, yeah your a decent guy, but a jobs a job and until it's done your not going anywhere. But don't worry my partner is no pushover he should be able to finish this and make sure she lives."
"I will go down there and I will kill every one of those sorry **** bags myself, understand?"
"And I will stop you at all costs."
"You do not want to stand between me and them. I am quiet enough to sneak in after them if I must."
"sorry orders are orders, and right now my orders are to keep you lot here."
"And I swore several oaths before the gods that I would do all that I can to keep her protected even at the cost of my own life. Stand aside."
"I have made my own oaths so if you want this to get messy it will," he materializes a blade made of bone and teeth in the hand not holding the electric sphere.
"Stand down or I must kill you......."
"You should know I can't do that."
"Have you ever had something you would give your life to protect?"
"Yes I have, because I have a debt to repay, and I always repay my debt."
"She has not only saved my life but also given it a purpose."
"Without my honor I am nothing, without my debt I am powerless."
"This one understands nothing of honor."
"I can tell that, but you seem like a man of honor, surely you must understand why I cannot allow you to pass, at least not until I am called to battle."
"And you should be able to tell why I must be allowed to pass."
Gets into a battle stance, "I do."
"Must we fight? If you go with me, you will not be breaking a code and you will gain honor in saving a beautiful young Elf."
"But I was told to keep you here at bay."
"Bay is a relative term. Who is to define yet but each man in his own?"
"actually he was pretty literal, when he said to keep you here until he returned."
"I could obliterate you with but a breath. Allow me to pass. You are protecting these vile spawn of maggots[i]*."
"Not protecting doing my job, while my partner does his and kills them."
"Your honor comes at the loss of mine in far less than is taken. Who may call himself a man if his honor is stolen from another?"
"Which is the same for me if I allow you to pass."
"My life is held down there. You will lose a very small deal of honor if I pass. If I don't pass, I will lose my only reason to live."
"If I allow you to pass I will lose the last thing keeping me here, everyday my sanity is twisted in this place."
"You have no honor if this is how you live. What man would stand between Mates and claim it honorable?"
"Different men attain and keep honor by different means, I do not claim keeping you from your mate is honorable, I claim doing my masters bidding is honorable. But if it means that much to you, alright lets go."
"You allow me passage? You shall not regret this decision."
