As Sunjata revealed the exact reason for his visit, Loren pressed his lips together unhappily. Then he sighed. "Let me get this straight." He rubbed his eyebrows tiredly. "The Governor of Torchline is formally banning the Grand Healer of Halo in what is, essentially, a fit of pique?"
Raising a hand to forestall the Arbiter's response, the Launceleyn's eyes narrowed. "I recognize the situation is a lot more complicated than that, but that is what it looks like from the outside. As far as I am aware, I have broken no laws that would warrant being thrown in jail." Mostly because Torchline didn't have any laws, but that fact still remained. His tone had remained even, but he was unable to keep the annoyance and upset from bleeding through their bond.
