Olivia tried to look concerned for Ivan. "We'd better find a healer to take a look at you and find out if everything's okay with you."
Ivan smiled, happy with Olivia's concern for him. "I have been to several healers since I arrived, but nobody knows anything about it... I'm fine, I can handle the pain."
Then he made a serious expression. "Our biggest problem now is Black Hand. We have to take advantage of this power and the fact that the mercenaries don't have Red Lady and Cornelius anymore. Now it's time for us, the Guild, to take absolute control of Portgreen."
Ivan thought that Olivia would be against a mass slaughter because she always wanted control over the city, not only over citizens but also the mercenaries, so he tried to persuade her.
"But we won't be able to unite our groups if Black Hand and the mercenaries most loyal to him stay alive. Some will have to die so that many live in peace."
