You see a large Waarg in peak condition and a red
pentagram dyed into the fur of his back.

"Human, know that your race has caused us much ill.
 Do not expect much sympathy from me or my Liege."

"The pentagram is a symbol of magical power.
 Wherever the pentragram is, strong magical force
 will be concentrated.  Having the symbol upon
 my back gives me a constant source of power for
 binding and maintaining spells.
 
 It also makes my youth spell more practical."


"Others prefer a special place where spells can
 be bound.  The pentagram is usually on the floor.
 I also have one in my study.. having two is useful
 for the binding of very powerful spells."

"I may not look it, but I am a hundred and sixty-three
 years old.  As a master sorcerer, it is a fairly simple
 matter to keep myself from aging."

"Certainly not!

 You are an enemy of our race.  As long as you wear the
 Favour, your presence here will be tolerated.
 
 But I shall not endanger all our lives by giving you the
 power to destroy us!"

"My answer is still no.

 Even if you do not wish to destroy us, there is little
 to stop you from passing the knowledge to those who do!
 
 It would be safer for us all if I do not teach you."

He looks taken aback.

"Then I shall not help you further it; even good spells
 can be misused for evil intent.

 If as you claim you wish our people no harm, I ask that
 you tell no-one what you have learned until such time as
 the war between our people is over."
