As Mus'ad goes to meditate at the Shrine, he encounters Alicia, who seems to have just finished."OhithereMus'ad. Nicetoseeyou. Areyoudoingwellafterthatfight? Itwasprettyexciting, wasn't it?"
Mus'ad takes a few moments to respond, first to prepare himself to deal with the speed of this conversation, then to consider his actual answer. He hadn't put much thought into it on the battle field, plenty of time to discuss philosophy when you and those depending on you weren't in danger. When he got back though, he spent a long time trying to find an answer to why someone would really do that. To him, the given answer of "revenge" was preposterous. They'd already shown their faces which meant that the order would start making their own plans.... If they really wanted revenge why the weak attack, or at least why offer information to them so readily? Thinking about it was... tiring. But that was no reason to be rude, so he forced the smile back onto his face and scratched the back of his head in response to the question.
"Ah, Alicia... I'm doing fine. I'm sure you're aware that I stay out of the line of fire so that can be said of most fights but.... It was a bit too exciting for my tastes. Ended up snapping at someone, and the presence of those...." He pauses as if he wants to use a word but can't. "... people... has caused me a certain amount of vexation since I got back. Ah, but how did things go for you? I was a bit busy so I didn't really watch what was going on with everyone else."
