LOREN
Cool. Wessex was just going to ignore everything Loren said. Great leadership there: even if she disagreed and thought he was an idiot, even if she was sick and tired of outlanders questioning her, even if she thought he had an inflated sense of his own abilities, simply saying nothing to his concerns was a mark of weakness, not a sign of strength. Unfortunately, a weak ruler was better than no ruler at all. He hadn’t been here when she was put in charge, and if he had been...well everything would be different, and there was no use crying over spilled milk.
If she wasn’t going to talk to him, he wasn’t going to talk to her. That seemed fair. Her dismissal was clear enough, so when Deimos stood, the summoner tucked away his notes and belongings and stood as well. Saluting both of them—just because he’d disagreed with them and they were mad at him didn’t mean he was going to stop acting professionally at least not yet—he walked out without another word. He’d post their decision on the Notice Board. And when the time came, he’d help the general bring Roana in.

But don’t be weary if it’s broken
Families are like that—
they’re split up and always torn.
