[He just doesn't realize Esikko is one of them. He can sense a buried spitefulness, one that reminds him of a certain "friend" back home. But as far as he knows, the most dangerous thing about Prince Esikko Blum Whatever is his willingness to hurt himself in pursuit of his own goals.]
The power of friendship alone won't save us. That can help heroes defeat villains in the movies, but it won't take care of everything in the real world.
