[color=d72525][i]Ah, so that's what he's up to.[/i][/color]

The issue with characters like Ser Lein is that their rogueish impulses are part and parcel to their identity - they usually stem from deep within one's biography. I have no doubts that in my absence he has been reprimanded for similar incidents, but arrogance, in my experience, trumps punishment or criticism. Thus preventative long term measures are exceedingly difficult to implement. I sometimes question in my mind Tyaethe's judgement when it comes to recruitment - although Lein's skills clearly have some unique merit. I suppose it isn't my purview to weigh whether said virtues nullify the insubordinate streaks or not. 

This does bring me to a dilemma, however, because of the two people stood in front of me, the maid is not the authority. Technically speaking, Ser Lein could make up a whole manner of excuses that would not need to be verified necessarily: 'What, are you calling a Knight a liar?'

Suffice it to say it's probably necessary for me to step in - if only for the sake of this poor maid not having to be misled and possibly punished for accidentally letting Lein do whatever it is he's attempting to do. If he fools me - Mayon willing - I'll bear whatever consequences arise (admittedly, likely little to none at all).

My eyes narrow liberally at the Hundi. Curiosity was building, however. I would like to see this particular web unravel.
