Croff gave a nod and growl of acknowledgement as Crix spoke, but kept his eyes on the room ahead, searching for their prey. As Crix moved deeper inside and searched for the dark sider, he wouldn't see any sign of him just yet. Likely he would need to either wait until a move was made and react quickly, or say something to draw him out. Avesh certainly didn't come off as a very stable individual.
The voice was quiet as Crix replied to him. And hesitated a good few moments afterwards, considering the Padawan's question. His next response came with a huff of annoyance, as though it was a waste of his time to ask. "I told you I want nothing to do with you Jedi." He insisted angrily. "All that concerns me is my own survival. I wouldn't even be here if I had a choice..." Crix would hear a slight scuffling to his left, closer to one of the altars. But there was still no sign of the man.
"Those Trandoshans you were so eager to make friends with? I have the distinct feeling your Jedi sensibilities wouldn't approve of them if you knew what they really were... And what they've done." There was contempt in his voice that reached beyond the Half-Zabrak. "They threatened my survival, and so I lured them to this place to be rid of them... But you... You come in here and stick your nose in matters you barely understand. Just like the rest of your kind..." Whether he was being truthful or simply trying to deceive the Padawan was hard to tell. But both his fear, and his fury, were very real, burning the air around the Half-Zabrak.
