Derti turns to Misrahi without hardly drawing breath "And you, by the way, also thanks although I'm sure with all the holy preamble and all that you weren't really doin' it for me. Helps' help though. Names Derti it's great to meet ya why don't ya sit down with me and Lori here and have a drink or does Bahamut you said? Forbid that?
