[QUOTE="Tecklenburg, post: 6813123, member: 6781356"] Quietly I say "...old friend." I then shake my head and narrow my eyes. "No qualm about sending Saerie to a most terrible fate? She is more important to the security and prosperity of the goodly fey than all of your bureaucrats combined. From my recollection, it was her neck that was on the line against the Far Realm entities that would devour the world we were tasked to defend. It was her arrows that brought down the ancient aboleth queen mother that would have invaded our world should we have failed." I look at Saerie intently. "I would see every pretentious, do-nothing noble put to the sword before I let Saerie suffer the slings and arrows of our enemies alone. If it is indeed the Bralani Wintersoul that we encountered prior, and she is indeed conspiring with the dark fey of Vor Thomil, then you would be sending many warriors to their death in my stead." Looking at Queen Tiandra squarely now. "That sort of [B]villainy [/B](I stress that word) I cannot abide, despite the possible political fallout of my failing. But I [B]WON'T[/B] fail." I'll won't address Malgelir's implication that he is aware that Saerie and I arranged this audience and thus have interests of our own. He is clearly angling at something. He likely already has learned and wants to get out in front of things and express his opinion on the matters. The noble families of the Summer Fey won't like what I've planned and surely they are irked about a human child in their midst. When looking at the Summer Queen, I'm trying to read her pained response. Does she not have the authority or the gumption to simply give him the boot?
