“It matters,” Ky said quietly. “Some people don’t try.”

Ky smiled and nodded. She knew. She let silence pass between them before, “do you have much problem with crime?”

"Some. Not as much as some other houses--Loquitur, Adree, and Tarr all struggle some. But House Adree just changed hands so that's to be expected. It'll settle soon enough."

“Yes ma’am.” Ky nodded. “…what do you suppose leads to the disparity?” Was Tomhas a shitty Lord?

"Imbalance. Too tight or loose a fist. Too tight and people commit crimes in defiance. Too loose and people think they can get away with anything."

She wondered which Loquitur was. Probably too loose, if she had to guess. He didn’t seem the harsh type. It was hard to say, of course. Aleth could be winsome when he wanted to. Tomhas didn’t have a need to be here, though. Probably. Surely Ash knew the truth about his brother, and the Ladies Barraster probably did too. So who would he be trying to impress? Surely not a couple of slaves. Not to mention neither Ash nor Lady Constance seemed the type to tolerate grandiose shows without eyerolls and scathing remarks. And there was none of that. So, probably too lax a Lord.

“Yes ma’am.” Ky nodded. “It seems very complicated; I don’t envy you in the least.”
Well. She sort of envied having the money and safety to travel and own your own clothes and eat whatever food you wanted and make sure everyone you care about is also fed and clothed. But she wouldn’t want any of the rest of it.

"I don't envy me either." She smiled wanly. "But it isn't all bad; I have my family who loves and supports me."

"Well, there are cousins and aunts and uncles--we're distantly related to the Ashes, actually. But the closest to me besides Arianna and Ewan is Ewan's biological father, Max Eden."
