Kaelan blinked, stunned. "...sir?" It seemed too good to be true. Which meant it probably wasn't. "...May I ask why?"

"Yes, sir." Kaelan squared his shoulders and approached the desk, hesitating and then shaking his left hand. "...Nice to meet you?"

Aeron sobered, scratching his chin. "...I'm going to need to figure that one out," he admitted. "But it'll likely just be a favor or two. Technically speaking the cu-sith wasn't ...

"Hmm..." He shrugged. "I mean, you're welcome to ask. But you best be respectful with it... and smart. Don't try, like... the red caps or something stupid like that. They're ...

Kaelan wasn't sure what that meant for him. What the fuck had he done? Why was he getting one-on-one attention with the lord of the Keep? He peered past Bay, ...

"Okay," she said with a nod. "...Thank you." Traitor.
