For every joy, there is a price to be paid.
The only thing that is humiliating is helplessness.
ABASI
Abasi listened to Wessex's tale, though he found it unsatisfying - she didn't know if it'd hurt for anyone else, then. Though it did make him smile (forcing his mouth back into a straight line he thought do not laugh at a monarch) that the Queen could get hurt trying to impress a girl, like a common teenager.
"I am glad you were restored, then. It seems she has done well to protect you." To come back from the dead was nothing short of a miracle, but the way Wessex seemed so casual about it made him wonder if it was more common here.
The names she picked out were pin-point accurate. "I am...close to Loren, yes. I have spoken to both Jigano and Amalia, though I feel Jigano does not care for me. Jigano and Amalia are both definitely derisive of the Ascended, though I can't say I've been aware of Loren having too much of an opinion on the matter. At least, not that he's spoken to me in length of." He shrugged. "Regardless of the truth, the fact is that a lot of people do not care for the Ascended, so for my business it would be a poor move to show alliance either way."

If his heart rules him,
his conscience will soon take the place of the rod.
