Joshua was pleased that this woman would take his word for something. Of course he was aware that she might not believe him at all and all she had was his word. It wasn't like she knew that he wouldn't lie or make up stuff like this, she had no reason to trust him at all and he knew that.

But her last words had him confused. "So you don't believe in all men being equal?" He wasn't offended or anything, because there were far more people who didn't than did back in Valisthea.
