"Good. Then I hope your association bears fruit. As I said, you may send me the bill for any costs for treatment that arise. I will see them taken care of." He again offers with a wave of an arm.
Goro does not share Jayce's idealism about the international situation. Coming from Outworld, co-operation between nations or factions is usually limited, aimed at either crippling a greater threat, or when forced by a greater power, usually the Kahn. In a world of monsters built on conquest, a reputation as a peace-maker is a death sentence, the blood in the water that heralds a frenzy. Even Kotal Kahn, the would-be reformer knows that Outworld must be ruled by an iron hand.
Abraxian politics are woefully frustrating since his instincts tell him they all want the same thing, yet insist on this dance of back and forth where there must be justification for a first strike. Where whichever country must make the first move must appear to have the moral high ground for doing so. The desperate search for a "just" war, a completely ludicrous concept. Strike, and strike hard. When the dust settles, the victor will rewrite history to favour them anyway, and gradually, people will come to accept it as so. They will have no choice. So it has always been, so it always will be.
However, Goro only nods. "It may prove to be an irrelevant concern in the end, as you say. I admit that this political landscape is...strange, to me at times. Your partner is an interesting mix of hope and pragmatism. I find the two often incompatible, yet Viktor balances both. An intriguing man, to say the least." He cocks his head to the side in curiosity.
"May I ask how the two of you came to work together?" The two men seem to walk in vastly different spheres and differ in personality so, it's difficult to imagine how they came to know each other, let alone form.a partnership.
