MAEA
Maea glanced sideways at the King, unsure how to interpret his tone. Too much a stranger, even with how easily she could speak around him, she had no key of experience to measure his moods against. Turning back to her scrutiny of the ceiling, her response came out flat and perhaps a touch too honest to be entirely polite.
"Hm. In collective pain and grief, I suppose. How many will be inconvenienced, and what would the repercussions be for anyone who had to deal with the aftermath of a mishap." There was a crass logic to her tone, and a detachment over the expression on her face that stood at odds with the care Hadama had expressed for his people.
"I am not strong, so taking me down if I was infected would likely noy be difficult, and since I have no family or close friends, no one would mourn overly much if I didn't make it. Limiting the number of people involved in the project would ensure that no one else suffered, too." Considering it all like she was scrutinizing a test paper, Maea nodded to herself, content with the conclusion.
"I would say that the potential discoveries far exceed the risks. Not to mention, I would be spending my time on something useful." Fangs glinted in the diffused light as she grinned softly, feeling excitement mount in the face of the work ahead; not unlike the thrill of balancing on a cliff's edge. It would be a lie to say the risk didn't make it more interesting.
