Hunter took a moment to form his reply. Words linked to yet more words in an intricate web of detail, intended to expand further upon his previous speech. As he had imagined, the Major proved to be a worthwhile listener. He picked out the smallest details and questioned them with utmost precision.
"Perhaps I should have been more specific as to my intentions for seeking to join you."
"All my life I have been fighting, struggling to survive. Now I am in a position where that is no longer necessary. If you were to strip my nature down to the core, all I am is a man with a very small skill set. However, I feel that skill set has the potential to serve the SCRA's agenda. For a while, since the beginning of my mercenary career, I have been fighting to protect myself and to stay alive till the next day."
"As I have said, I no longer have this need and now, I feel empty. I wish to devote myself to a cause which I think is worthwhile. Your cause, Major."
With that, Hunter waited tentatively for the Major's reply.
