Frost doesn't so much as flinch during Hiero's display of anger. He remains quiet until the hawk finishes shouting. "There's a fine line between bravery and stupidity, hawk." the wolf scolds. "A line you seem oblivious to. Do you honestly think that 'dying for your people' is going to be of any help to them? If so, then by all means charge blindly into battle. I won't stop you." he waves a hand dismissively while turning away from Hiero.

"And yes, there is a problem we need to confront: your temper." He adds as he walks over to Keira and Crystaline. "Yesterday, you attacked both of them in a blind rage, severely burning Kiera. Had it been my sister instead, I would have ripped you into two!" He then starts walking towards Hiero, pointing a finger at him. "That temper of yours has gotten us into trouble time and time again. Heed my warning, Hayden." He pauses as he reaches Hiero, standing face-to-face and starring him in the eye. "If you don't learn to control your temper, it will control you instead. And you will end up hurting someone close to you. Are you prepared to live with that for the rest of your life?”

He then walks over to Drake. "I know you want to help your countrymen, but a head-on assault is suicide."

Drake frowns, looking somewhat defeated. He was unable to even meet Frost's cold gaze.

Crystaline steps forward. “But Frost, we can’t jus-“

“Let me finish, Crystaline.” Frost says before continuing. “Ignoring this would be equally dangerous and foolish. If Rivak and his men are operating in this area, we need to find out why. We’ll continue our way there, do some reconnaissance, and make a plan to infiltrate.”

Drake wasn’t expecting to hear this, but he breathes a sigh of relief. “Thank you.” He says before glancing at Crystaline. “But, what ‘bout her? I know you don’t want her comin’ with us, or walking across the desert alone. And I don’t blame ya. Some nasty creatures live out ‘ere.”
