What Do You Have To Fear? {**}

"A massage? Oh please," Krion said while waving him off, "Do I really look like someone who can't relieve their own stress?"

As she spoke, the Cardinal snapped her fingers and conjured six hands of Spiritual energy that flexed with a readiness to deliver the service Evian just offered. 

"And have those hands helped you find relief?" Evian asked with a smile. 

"Not yet, but it WILL pass," Krion said, "Why don't we return to the issues."

"But your aches are the issues though. How can your words and tone be reliable when I'll just keep thinking it's influenced by discomfort."

"Ridiculous," Krion said. 

"What do you have to lose?" Evian asked while twiddling his fingers, "What do you have to fear?"

Krion just glared at him without saying a word so Evian knew he had her right where he wanted her and all she needed was a little push,

"I assure you I have techniques and skills perfectly suited to this… situation."
