The anger disappeared from Naarilash's face but it was replaced by a deep sadness. "I understand that you want me to earn your respect. But I believe that rather than being nasty to someone until they earn your respect, one should respect the other until they give reason for you to no longer respect them. I do not think I have given any reason for you not to respect me. I have been kind to you, I have fought with you, and may have saved your life, I have cared for your wounds, and what have you given me in return?" Naarilash's eyes were filled with sadness. "Scalding words, arrogance, hate, even. That should give me the right to disrespect you, but I still will try and respect you, despite how you have treated me."
