Whight ran the man's name through every inch of his head trying to link something, anything, to him. He almost instinctively opened his journal to see whether or not the name sat within it's sheets, but he refrained himself. When the name produced no link to anything, Whight immediately felt better about giving his name. He told the man who he was to establish a bit of trust and also so he would feel a bit more obligated to wait on Whight while he returned his books. Whight knew the risk but he also knew at any second he could be anyone he possibly wanted and the man that strode beside him could potentially never see him again.
He knew the conversation was just small talk during their walk, and that's all he wanted for now. Everyone knew of Grindelwald and Whight saw the "powerful man" for just as crippled as he was. "Grindelwald will fall just as everyone before him has, it's just a matter of time. There is always someone who wants to be in even greater power than those who already have it, and those who want it more will find a way to get it. It's just a question of where you will be during the shift or what position you will fight to gain." Whight continued after a moment, "The problem with Grindelwald is that he does not have a following of Everyone, he's one man and everyone knows he's in power which makes him the direct target for everyone who isn't with him. It is very rare that everyone will follow just one man. If you ask me, he's not as brilliant as many may think. I would do things quiet differently if I was a man seeking power, but that I am not."
Whight contently stopped speaking. He knew he had said a lot more than he normally would but he did not reveal what side his allegiance leaned toward; there had to be a side chosen for that to happen in the first place anyway. He also hoped his words would show were Silvyr's mind was in the matters of so called "good and evil" when he next spoke.
He pushed his glasses to the top of his nose and side stepped some garbage that laid in his path.
