"You insisted on coming to travel with the army, but now you're saying we should travel without them as a small group and leave Aver to pose as you? With all due respect, Ambassador, have you lost your senses?"He grimaces at all the goings-on. "It seems enough of you are set to split up like this, despite it being obvious to Dellex that we are sneaking about and attempting, poorly, to mislead him. "And Rodric, we know Dellex is against us because at every turn he has opposed, manipulated, and, in one case, nearly assaulted us. Well, the last one was just me, because I managed to raise his temper. He's a power-hungry, manipulative wretch. But we can't take things so directly because he's also the High King's adviser and a powerful wizard. And we're largely nobodies. Anything we say could fairly easily be battered down, without any magical interference."</blockquote>
