Who was it that led you on
And makes you want to hurt me so?
And makes you want to hurt me so?
Liam was many things, but a liar was not one of them; nor was he particularly adept at the political turns of phrase that might have protected his region's negligence from prying eyes. He also wasn't one to avoid a direct question, particularly from a man who he knew to be his superior in terms of rank. So no matter how much it irked him, he schooled his expression and rattled off information like the soldier he was. "I've been offering training to any citizen who wants to learn self-defense, but aside from that... there hasn't been much preparation. I've only lived there for a few seasons - I moved from Stormbreak not long ago - so I'm not sure about the effects of the war. There aren't many people in the Greatwood, though whether that is because of the war or not, I couldn't say."
It was the truth, such as it was, and Liam grimaced as he heard his report as it must sound to the Warden. He clasped his hands behind his back, looking very much like the soldier he was in the rigid set of his spine. "We... could use direction," he admitted, though it was clear that revealing their weakness went against every instinct he had. Still, with their leader having disappeared... what was he supposed to do?

Who do you want to forget?
Who forgot you long ago?
