Vreta hummed to himself as he looked over Kjartan and Thebes. He still was not sure entirely what to think of the Sacred Band’s newest member. Just based on their short time working together, it felt like he would be more of a liability than an asset. He would just be someone to watch out for if they continued to work with the Sacred Band in the future, Vreta supposed. “Well, at least everyone is fine. I’m sure that’s not how any of us expected the match to end.”

As they moved to leave the arena, Vreta kept close to the Sacred Band. The simulation had been an interesting diversion, and one that he hoped would convince them to see him as less of an outsider, but he still had certain things he wished to say to them before they parted. “I know everything is still moving quickly with the excavation. A lot of work to do, not a lot of time to stop and think. I know I wasn’t there in the simulation, but I did see the recordings of what happened. I wanted to thank you for it; you fought for our people as much as you did your own.”

From the floor of the arena, and with everything he had been dealing with otherwise, Vreta had not noticed Rareth’Jharn up in the spectator booth. So, it came as a surprise when he suddenly heard her voice ahead of them. “That they did.” She said, stopping just in front of them. As a guest aboard the Human ship, she lacked any of her military equipment and weapons, though seeing her outside her suit really just drove home exactly how large and powerful of a Rothian she really was. She towered over the rest of the crowd, supersoldiers included. As they had learned inside the simulation, much of her body was artificial, though one would not be able to tell through her synthetic flesh. “I am not so busy that I cannot come to say it myself. I know our people have different customs, different ways of seeing things, but I wanted to give respect in the ways of my people.” She said to the Sacred Band.
