MORGAN
"...I wish I could say no, but maybe it's for the best. He must not suspect it at all, though." Morgan trusted Neron to do his job well, but she couldn't help the caution; things with Deimos were already fractured - she was sure if the ex-General found out he was being spied on, any future chances of a relationship between them was dashed.
There was always a little joy in being able to surprise Neron, see that widening of his eyes; the Spymaster always seemed to be so on top of everything. "Yes. Of course, it's not just that you're Ascended; you were our old Warden, and one that most people do not regard well after your exit." Morgan didn't soften her words - he knew it and so did she. "But I'd like to think by now I've proven myself capable enough and good enough at my work to be trusted. That I know what I'm doing."
She laughed. "I am not suggesting in any way we make an announcement. The vanity of that would be enough to kill me alone. No - just that if someone asks, maybe we don't...deny." Morgan shrugged her shoulders. "I suppose it is something to consider. It would be, at the very least, a way of showing people that Ascended and others can get along - although, I'm hardly in the God's good graces myself, as an Abandoned."

And time goes quicker
