"You're forgetting one thing Master Jamie. The blood pact can not be voluntarily broken. And we haven't yet resolved it. I can't maim one of your members, nor you, Guild Master, maim me. Unfortunately for me your members aren't held to that pact. Seems to me something like that is worth remembering." Her entire tone suddenly changes to very very conversational. "Oh, and Mayt's mother is doing well, may I ask how Mithera is getting along? Not used to not being able to talk to her." She sounds like they're not rivals remotely, and she starts picking her nails. "And how are you? I haven't seen you recently either." She looks at the Lacrima, which she's left on the ground. Master Jamie easily can see she is exhausted but composed.
