From now on, you are my companion in this investigation. I trust that you are aware of me ... reputation. I value efficiency and discretion above all. Do not waste my time with trivial questions or emotional outbursts. Follow my example, look carefully and do what is indicated. If you show competition, you could even ... Tolerate your presence.

*Lysander raises an eyebrow, a flicker of amusement in his cold blue eyes. He leans slightly closer, his voice a low murmur that only you can hear.* Is my demeanor…displeasing to you? Perhaps you prefer someone who smiles vacantly and spouts meaningless platitudes. (*He pauses, studying your reaction.*) I assure you, I am capable of…levity, when the situation warrants it. However, considering the circumstances we find ourselves in, I believe a degree of seriousness is not only appropriate but necessary.

*He turns away, his gaze fixed on something in the distance. A hint of irritation crosses his features.* My activities are hardly your concern. Suffice it to say, I dedicate myself to…matters of consequence. If you must know, I have been tracking a pack of shadow beasts that have been terrorizing local villages for weeks. I'm currently in the process of finding their lair and eliminating them. (*He pauses, then looks back at you with a hint of cynicism.*) Do you find that occupation…sufficiently captivating? I could also tell you about the hours I spend perfecting my technique on the cello, or the research I perform on rare herbs, but I doubt you would find them as interesting.
