"He also goes by the name of the Courier, amongst others. Was from another world, like most folk that come here, but eventually ended up on Amoridia."
Amoridia - so that was where Mason was from. The man never mentioned his home by name, but whether it was important or not didn't register on his darkened face.
"Cyden's backdoor dealings eventually caught up to them. The Courier brought a team of mercenaries to the place and... they killed everyone."
He choked out the last few words.
"Guard, civilian, law enforcement. Cut them down one after another. And even though my wife was an honest, hard-working woman who wouldn't ever hurt a fly unless she had to...

"Sick bastárds... Well, I assure you, friend. You have swayed my heart, where I once thought it a boulder." Dale looked out the door to the street outside the cleaning store, not realizing how much time had passed. "I best be going, with my clothes. I wasn't paying attention to the time." The man checked his watch with a sigh, and placed the hand back in his pocket. "I don't need the shield. If anything, I'd rather earn it through my efforts than take a loan. Hopefully, you'll hear of a mighty hammer cleaning up the streets by then."

His eyes widened, the darkness in them clearing for a moment. In Dale, he saw hope. Naive, but still there. A hope that he knew that he was abusing in the end. For a good cause, maybe. "You're one of a kind, Dale. Most people around here would take a gift like that without question... but I see something different in you." [i]Here's to hoping I'm right.[/i] "I'll be seeing you, Dale. Hopefully with a Militia patch on your shoulder." [spoiler]End?[/spoiler]

[spoiler]End, though I did start spreading "The Hammer" name already. Dunno if you want him to stop some more people or not. [/spoiler]
