"You ever think we are really bad people?" Nidget and I had escaped Valrym's bar's basement and gotten past the mortar line (because we're resourceful like that, also no one cares about two idiots running away, I probably confused more people coming into the warzone than I ever did leaving it) we were riding hard to anywhere but where we were because we are shitty people.
"I don't think that Nidget I know it, we are terrible people, trust me I've been around and we are selfish assholish small minded jerks who think nothing of other people and only help others when it suits us specifically."
"Wow that's so spot on it hurts."
"And the best part is, it doesn't matter we are dicks! The world is made up of dicks, morality is just what the lesser morons who can't do what we do try and enforce on the rest of us. See you are feeling bad for being liberated Nidget! You shouldn't feel bad, you should feel free, because that's what we are, we are free to be the biggest assholes around because we acknowledge that's exactly what we are." We were riding to a port (any port really, but this was the eastern port for those who want to know), because the best way to ride out a war is to be not in country for it. And the lands of the east were nice this time of year. Not really, but you know better than war.
"And right back to being completely delusional Trezlan you are so nice when you are easy to understand."
"You should be nicer to me, I'm buying your ticket out of here."
"What would you do shove me in a trunk instead?"
"Don't tempt me Nidget." I didn't shove him into a trunk, but I thought about it. Still I thought my belief was proper, I mean it made sense to me anyway. And since I'm an admitted selfish dick, that meant it was the only result anyone should pay attention to. SO THERE! Anyway we got on a ship and went to the lands of the east, and that's where things got complicated... ish. Ok mostly just complicated.
