Interview

                So it seems doing character interviews is popular, so here goes. My interview with none other than Tristan Nonson.

Me: Hello there Tristan, how’s it going?

Tristan: Pretty good so far, except my ribs are broken. I fell down a hole.

Me: I know, that may have been my fault.

Tristan: What’d you do that for? That really hurt! I could have died!

Me: Don’t worry about it, you were never going to die. Anyways, I brought you here so you could answer a few questions.

Tristan: What kind of questions?

Me: Sit quiet and you’ll find out.

Tristan: Okay.

Me: So, you were brought up at an orphanage in Dracwick. Have you ever been anywhere outside the city before Bela brought you to Stone?

Tristan: A couple of times. Once I jumped ship on a small boat that went downriver to a small village about an hour away from Dracwick. Once I got there though, I got left behind and had to walk back. That wasn’t very fun.

Me: And you are proficient with both the spear and the sword, correct?

Tristan: Yeah, I’m okay with a sword. Not like Hunter or Stone though. Those guys are crazy good. With a spear I hold my own against the best, even if I haven’t trained much with it before. A spear is useful in that you can injure someone with little risk to yourself. With a sword you have to get in close, and that’s where things get scary.

Me: Have you ever considered using a shield in addition to your spear?

Tristan: Not really, no. Mostly because a good shield is expensive, and there aren’t that many in Dracwick.

Me: Okay, one more question then. What do you think of the Alvarii?

Tristan: Well, they aren’t as bad as I thought they were going to be. True, they are very skilled fighters, but so am I. I wouldn’t want to fight more than two at a time, but I’m not afraid to fight them.

Me: And what do you think about them as people?

Tristan: Well, Stone’s alright, obvisously. As for the rest, I couldn’t care less. They’re full of anger and hate, and wish to kill everything. Luckily, me and my friends are around to stop them. We’ve taken some casualties, but we’re still going strong.

Me: Good to hear. Even though I knew that.

Tristan: Cheater.

Me: Hey, I’m the author, not you. Anyways, I’ll let you go then. Have fun fighting off the Alvarii.

Tristan: And the Shapeless.

Me: Oh, right. Don’t die.

Tristan: Make me.
