Things Better Left Unsaid

Morgan

I will not be told where to stand
I will not be told what to say

Morgan did not know much of the seasonal Gods and could not prove Loren wrong (or right) on those matters, so she nodded a consensus. When it came to how she handled herself and her council though, that was a different matter, one she was quite the expert on.

"I did not think Remi was actually going to hurt you. You held the secret of where the metal was." She had no idea if sentiment played any part in their relationship, but it had seemed they knew each other, as well; Remi might well have had other attachments. "That said, perhaps I should have stopped him. I was not intending to allow any actual harm to come to you, I assure you. No one should be hurt unnecessarily within this Citadel." And she meant that: even Neron had escaped without any physical punishment.

That he immediately asked for some time off...well, it certainly didn't endear him to her further, but Morgan was tired of arguing and simply sighed and nodded. "Very well. But after these days, you will be returning to your position?"

Not by you
Not by anyone tonight
