Lunise's response was suddenly closer to her usual cynical tone. "On the contrary, champion, the only risk that would change in Bravil is Marod being able to vouch his political asylum and betray our agreements. Far be it from me to encourage Areldril here's ego, he escaped from more heavily guarded Dominion cities."

"I have no reason to turn my back on the Dominion just yet, Lunise, don't you worry," Marod assured.

Lunise rolled her eyes. "My point is, Meesei, that his escape will be my concern and not yours. Leave it in my hands until I request otherwise, if you would. We shall proceed to Bravil, or anywhere else close by. It is of no appreciable consequence to me yet."

"It looked like the guards were heading towards Bravil," Fendros said. "It will be easier to rendezvous with Ahnasha and the other trackers if we go that way anyway."
