The man ignored the part about neutering - he didn't quite recall having his genitals sterilized at any time in his life. Seemed like something the Abbatial zealots would do. He deflates slightly at the thought of this man not having a boy. Where could Alister be then? If he was taken away, then surely so was the boy, right? Whatever the case, he couldn't let the Iconoclast harm the boy in any way. He knew how they operated. "Perhaps someone in there has seen the boy I'm looking for. By the way... What is your name, stranger? I would rather not travel in a new world such as this without knowing the name of any of its inhabitants." Of course, he didn't know that the Dojo was a crossroads of sorts for different warriors.
