Caprice: Stop right there, Emad! Just what kind of crazy stunt is this? I about jumped out of my skin!
Emad: No trick, angel. You rescued me from hell, and I'm feeling very ...fond of you.
Emad: Come here, Caprice.
Caprice: OH!!
Caprice: No! Don't touch me!
Emad: Angel...don't turn me away. Please. I want you so much.
Caprice: Emad, I'm with your brother! What's the matter with you?
Emad: You speak to me of that mongrel after what he did to me? Haven't you learned ANYTHING about that lying, murderous savage?
Caprice: What ...what are you talking about? Marvin isn't anything like that!
Emad: Caprice, open your eyes! Majid is a warrior demon! The worst of the Djinn! He used fire to force the Kraken on me, dumped me in that tank, and then laughed! Just to keep me from telling you the truth about him. I swear on my mother's grave! He's a cold blooded killer!
Caprice: No, NO! That's not right. It can't be right! It's a lie. I won't believe it.
Emad: Listen to me! Majid attacked his own brother, right where we're standing now! You KNOW it's true. You just don't want to accept it.
Caprice: No. Something is very wrong here. Everything's twisted. This is all wrong.
Emad: Caprice, come away with me. I NEED you, angel. You deserve more than that beast can give you. I'll tell you everything. No secrets. No lies. Come with me, Caprice. Now, before he gets back!
Caprice: Emad, enough. I don't understand what's happened here, but I'm going to find out! My own way. You need to leave. Please, leave.
Emad: You're making a mistake, Caprice. Just think about what I've told you. You'll realize the truth.
Caprice: Goodbye, Emad. I'm sorry, but you have to go.
Emad (to himself): I'm spinning my wheels here, and I have other options. Time to head down the second road my little brother has so conveniently paved for me. There's more than one source of wealth in this decaying town.
Meanwhile, Caprice's Perceptive and Easily Impressed traits play tug of war in her head.
She's thinking: What have I gotten myself mixed up in? I know nothing about these Djinn. What kind of creatures are they? ...Well, one thing I'm sure of. I must trust my own Fae senses.
Emad: Angel...don't turn me away. Please. I want you so much.
Caprice: Emad, I'm with your brother! What's the matter with you?
Caprice: What ...what are you talking about? Marvin isn't anything like that!
