Mysteries of the Floating Islands

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

People like you are pathetic. You think just because you went to college that makes you the most intelligent being in this world. You act like you're so superior yet you still lack of world experience. You want to accuse me of doing the same thing you're doing. If you must know, I have worked as a soldier, a mercenary, whatever work comes by. I have seen a lot of things in my past 20 years. How vicious some get. How they don't hesitate to kill you if you don't pick up the sword. But you just choose to simply ignore that I do what is asked of me. Because I have served in armies. I get told to do a role and do my job. Like I'm doing right now. But you just simply choose to ignore that because the only thing you care about is boasting to me about your superiority. I will grant you have find some pieces to the puzzle that will help us greatly. But keep in mind that if you end up in a battle yourself, we'll see how you do. Pick up a sword, bow and arrow, magic, whatever. Let's send you out there. You and you alone. Let's see how you do against an army.

Mordecai takes a deep breath.

You want my assistance, you want me to help in the investigation? I will do it. You want to be the mouthpiece to get us closer to obtaining our goals. You do it. My point is we all have roles. So you would be wise to watch your tongue. It is not me merely intimidating you. You seem so quick to want to throw me under the wagon. Don't think any of us won't do the same to you if you keep this up. You have your worth, but don't try to delude yourself into thinking you're everything there is because you're far from it.
