Raban (to Ben'Dar) "I know my friend, they have shown themselves as 
quite fierce yet all have been badly hurt showing they do need 
protecting. Even if they did not need it, I would try to protect them 
anyway. My mother died when I was young because she did not think she 
needed protection. Her murderer was the first person I had ever tried to 
hurt, I did not know what to do so I just grabbed him and squeezed and 
kept squeezing long after his screaming stopped until the troop leaders 
told me to let him go. He was dead of course, I was not quite as big and 
strong as I am now but it was more than enough to crush bones. I had to 
leave after that, they did not want the trouble that would follow..."
  "I made my leathers as I make most my things, its too hard to find 
what I need otherwise. But leather is not durable enough to survive much 
serious fighting, its more for protection from thorns and other travel 
hazards. For what we have fought here, I expect I would need some metal? 
But I do not know how to make armor that way. Maybe between us we can 
more quickly remake my leathers so I have a little protection if no 
magical means can be found to help. I think I will need it quite soon if 
this place continues to act like it has so far."
  "As a druid, Arawn's words are law to many peoples. As a bard, I must 
try to follow them as much as I can, though I am finding that difficult."
