It's strange, but even only half-sober, the lack of hesitation with which Sunjata says he'd kill and die for his daughter (and the admission that she's prettier than him) does much to soothe the Star's ruffled feathers.

(Though he'll reserve judgement for when he has actually vetoed the sitter he's chosen - because that's definitely within the Star's remit. Of course it is).

"She floated," he says simply. "Wasn't a magic I'd ever seen before. She could make gravity... strange. That's how I knew," he murmurs.
He surprises himself by wanting to meet the girl, too, Ronin nodding gently. "Perhaps you can bring her along, when you come to Stormbreak and visit. It might be nice for her to be away from Torchline when it gets so hot. She can meet Mateo."
