You will never do anything in this world without courage.
Sparring was a strange thing that somehow gave the participants a better sense of who the other was as a person. It showed mercy versus brutality, pride versus humbleness, honor versus ruthlessness. And after their spar together, Zavien got the sense that Liam was someone he could trust, especially as his words implied where his allegiances lay.
However, it didn't prepare him for Liam's confession, to hear of the atrocities he'd experienced within Stormbreak. Running a hand through his hair, he let out a heavy sigh. "Wow... I - I'm so sorry to hear that." It all seemed to fall into place, and he shook his head with a twinge of embarrassment. "I respect your choice." Not that Liam needed his respect, but it was hard not to understand his reasoning when Zavien had done something so similar. Stormbreak may be his home, and where he hoped to return one day, but just the thought of being so close to the Family again made his skin crawl, his heart racing faster than the panicked thoughts.

Zavien
It is the greatest quality of mind next to honor.
