"I'm sorry about that; my stomach isn't what it used to be Stefan"
"That is not a problem, I won't go into detail again, but if you want the whole story, I suggest you get a sick bag"
"Tell me more about the Wizards"
"What do you want to know, I thought you were a sceptic?"
"You don't understand how much of a big deal this story is for me, this will make or break me, my bosses aren't that interested in anything I write, if I can prove that not only are there Immortals among us, but Wizards as well..."
"I've already told you, I'm the last Immortal, and as far as I know, there are no Wizards left..."
"Yes but..."
"Mr Archer, you aren't listening to me, there are no more Wizards!"
"As far as you know, but what if..."
"There are no what if's Mr Archer, there are NO WIZARDS!"
"There are always what if's"
"Mr Archer, I haven't heard about Wizards for over Five Hundred years, in my opinion that means there are none left, no amount of money would make me change my view"
"I mentioned no money, but everyone has a price Stefan, even you"
"And by that you mean what?"
"I need this story, you need your cure"
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"Help me find a Wizard, and I'll help you find your cure"
" "
"I'll take your silence as a sign that you're interested"
"Wizards are dangerous Mr Archer, If you could find one, you may not like what you find"
"Where would I look? Where do Wizards hang out?"
"You're talking like a fool Mr Archer, do you want to die?"
"Look Stefan, it took years for me to get you to sit down with me, in the end it was because you wanted to use me to help you, that you contacted me. IF there are Wizards or even just one left, it stands to reason that they may need my help as well. I think the outcome of finding one, outweighs the danger, don't you?"
"I'm Immortal, there is no danger for me, but you must understand, the Wizards were hunted down and executed, because they started killing Mortals"
"And you're different are you?"
