Jun's nostrils flared, his maw opening to no doubt rebuke Jabari's words. Yet nothing tumbled out. There was some truth to the Half-elf's words. As much as he wanted to argue against them, he knew even immortals were stirred by greed. Despite being so few, he knew they could be the most catastrophic of dangers.
He closed his maw, exhaling angrily. For the normally composed Eastern, this seemed to be a sensitive subject.
The compelling points from the both of them left him torn. Deimos came from a more understanding point of view. While he was still amazed by the fact a dragon claimed a mortal for his own hatchling nonetheless, there was no mistaking the seriousness of his tone and the depth of words. They struck a chord within him and he wasn't too pleased…
"I will concede agreement with you." Jun spoke gravely. "The both of you. But these are magicks passed down within my ancestry. I cannot so easily pass down this information to those not of my clan. Let alone other species. And it is not so easily accomplished as well without dealing nefarious deeds. You must be willing to get your claws dirty." His family would surely tear his hide… if any of them still lived.
Jun pondered on it. He knew the archives contained what they desired. Was he truly… He snorted. "Prove yourself to me. Information desired is never truly easy to receive. A series of tasks if you will. Some even related to what you truly seek. What do you say?"
