Zevran: I am hardly the person to lecture on the worthier points of human nature, but surely this is a fine time to display the oft-lauded virtue known as mercy? (Uncomfortably trying to give his opinion. A little awkward.)
Zevran: I deserved to die, and you spared me. Why are you so quick to condemn these mages? (Uncomfortably trying to give his opinion. A little awkward.)
Warden: Magic and knives are different.
Zevran: Magic can kill. Knives can kill. Even small children launched at great speed could kill. (Trying to make his point and yet lighten the mood.)
Zevran: Why single out the wielders of one and not the others? (Accusingly.)
Warden: Mages can do more damage with one spell than you ever could.
Zevran: Mm. Touché.(Grudgingly.)
Zevran: I've taken the lives of many throughout my career, but this is no measured act. There is no chase, no hunt, no dignity in this... there is only slaughter. (Sounds a little unnerved.)
Warden: What about the people they might slaughter? (persuade check)
Zevran: I've thought about it, but... ah, I don't know why I'm so concerned about this to begin with. (persuade check passed) (Possibly tossing his hands up in the air and giving up trying to convince someone of something.)
Zevran: Do as you like. Certainly the notions of morality brought up by a professional assassin are dubious at best, yes? (Possibly tossing his hands up in the air and giving up trying to convince someone of something.)
OR
Zevran: Might, not will. Committing genocide just because something might happen is more than the mark of a weak mind. It is insanity. (persuade check failed) (Fervently, he feels strongly about this.)
Zevran: As I said, it is not the killing I object to. It is the senselessness of it. I cannot support this. (Firm.)
OR
Zevran: I deserved to die, and you spared me. Why are you so quick to condemn these mages?
Warden: You're a lot better-looking than most of the mages. (female pc)
Zevran: Why, thank you. Flattery would normally distract me, but not today. Inconvenient, no? (Wryly.)
Zevran: I've taken the lives of many throughout my career, but this is no measured act. There is no chase, no hunt, no dignity in this... there is only slaughter.
Actually, there are a lot of trees to this conversation. A LOT of them. It's under cir230_cullen
edit: redoing this in a different format.
Second edit: Actually, no, it's too complicated a tree. I can copy and paste all of it, which would most likely be easier, but it's easiest to just read it if you can.
