Government Officials Headquarters

[Gia Trakana]

In the center of town, there are buildings where the many people who work for the government carry out the necessary business needed. The three buildings - Finance Department, Foreign Affairs Department, and Internal Affairs Department are connected to the Main Hall, where all requests and complaints of the government are asked, as well as complaints of other citizens. There is no hall for the Security Division, as all Security and Military matters are conducted from the military headquarters, separate from the other government buildings, as it is military. Also, the office of the ruler is located here, but locked off to all.

[Gia Trakana]

Gia woke up and got dressed, almost wishing that the night before had been a dream. The sad thing was that it had been no dream. Stratos had attacked Titanus, who had revealed that the Lord of Deproelior had once been his student. Of course, the woman had not seen her Head of Security since last night, so she had not had a chance to grill him yet. She had to talk to Lord Bohren this morning, and hopefully, this whole matter will be cleared. After all, even though she didn’t blame the old man for putting both Titanus and Stratos in jail last night, Titanus hadn’t actually done anything but defend himself. Stratos had come over and attacked him without provocation, threatening to kill him.

Making her way to the Government Headquarters Building were Lord Bohren’s office was, Gia realized that she wanted to go home. Obligated to go to the second day of the festival or not, the young Lady did not want to be here anymore than what she had to. As soon as she finished talking with the Lord of Laknos, she wanted to spend a short time at the festival this afternoon before making her way back to Aurora Valley today. Normally, she didn’t mind spending time in Laknos, but this trip had been too eventful, and the young Lady just wanted to go home and get back to her normal routine and be done with it all. Of course, Titanus would have to be released from jail first, and she was fairly certain he would be. Even though, as she had thought earlier, she knew that Bohren had been upset, understandably so, he was a reasonable man.

Gia then became curious as she wondered what Stratos’ fate would be. As a ruler herself, she knew that Bohren could not keep another ruler in jail for a long period of time. Would he require him to pay something to Laknos for his disturbing of the peace and attacking a diplomat from another city? The dark-haired woman wasn’t sure, and if the positions were reversed, she wasn’t sure she would know what to do other than simply be furious about the entire situation and throw him out. Was that all he could do? Throw Stratos out of the city? It would certainly give him cause to make sure that he had a heavy escort the next time he was in town, which hopefully wasn’t for a long time. After this, she was fairly certain that the old man didn’t want to see the young man ever again.

Gia walked into the Government Headquarters, building, nodded at the secretary, and turned, making her way past the departments for Finance, Foreign Affairs, and Internal Affairs. She was here for one reason and one reason only, because she knew that Lord Bohren wanted to speak with her, had said so himself yesterday. The dark-haired young woman knew that as soon as she had a chance, she would grill Titanus until she got the answers that she wanted. If she didn’t get them, then the two of them would have a huge problem. Hopefully, that wouldn’t happen, and the young woman had to force herself to concentrate on the matter at hand - talking to Lord Bohren, because of course, he had a few things to say to her after the fiasco at the festival last night.

Gia finally made it to Lord Bohren’s office, figuring that he was already there. Knocking on the door, once she was allowed entry, she made her way, and sat down at once of the chairs in front of his desk. “Lord Bohren,” she greeted, “good morning.” She nodded her head respectfully at him. “I would like to once more sincerely apologize for the fiasco at the festival last night, and I’m sure that you have a few things to say in regards to that, and I do not blame you.” She didn’t know if they were waiting for the Deproelior Head of Security or not, but it was something that she felt she had to say regardless. She kne also that Bohren should be allowed to speak first, before she started making excuses for Titanus. There was still a few hours before the festival started this afternoon, after lunch, so hopefully that was more than enough time for things to be settled.

[Devanus Zeller]

((Since Radkal obviously won't be posting, I'm just going to say that he's already met with Bohren and settled things. Can change if necessary))

It was early but it had already been a very productive morning. Bohren had already met with the Head of Deproeliorian security and had arranged what he felt was the best possible result, given the circumstances. Now he just had to deal with Gia, and the role that Aurora Valley had played in last night's debacle. While Bohren did not know the full details, he did know that Stratos had attacked Titanus specifically, and he wanted to know why. Titanus had broken no law by defending himself, but there were still other charges to be laid if there was something afoot there.

Gia found him looking out the window in his office, regarding the peaceful city below, preparing for the continuation of the festival that was soon to commence. He had calmed down some over the night with the aid of some meditation and time to himself once he retired for the night, but despite the success of his deals with Deproelior, being reminded of what had occurred on his lands was not putting him in the best of moods, as was evidenced by the position of his staff. It leaned, forgotten, against his desk. All of his staff knew that Bohren only forsook the stick when he felt himself in danger of cracking open a skull or two with it.

When Gia greeted him, Bohren turned his head toward her; literally the minimum required to be polite. He nodded toward a chair when she finished speaking. "Please, sit." While it was true that Bohren wanted this over and done with, he was also aware that he held the power in the current situation, and he would be damned if he did not use that to what extent he could. Gia was obviously no more pleased by the situation than he was, and Bohren was inclined to be nicer to her because of that, but he could not ignore the fact that she had evidently hired, as Head of Security, no less, someone that Stratos had a bone to pick with. If she had known this, then bringing him to this festival was not just careless, it was dangerous.

Taking his time as he paced the room, Bohren kept his eyes off of Gia, allowing her to sit there in silence as he debated exactly what he wanted to say to her. He was angry, yes, but that did not mean he was justified in making any untoward accusations. He had to take things slow until he knew what Gia knew, and then he could act accordingly. Even if this was the best possible situation for Gia, Bohren was still going to be very displeased, and discipline would be meted out. He would not have this business repeated on his land again, and if that meant that things would change diplomatically, then so be it.

After more than a minute of pacing the room in silence, Bohren finally stopped, walking to the front of his desk in front of Gia and leaning back against it, staring down at the smaller woman in front of him. "What happened last night was unacceptable. I invited Aurora Valley and Deproelior here in order to show that our three civilizations have the ability to coexist peacefully, however briefly, and that did not even last the one night. It is my understanding that Lord Stratos attacked your Head of Security, but I do not believe it was done randomly. So why don't you tell me what you know of his motivations and then we can take it from there."

[Gia Trakana]

Gia watched as Bohren paced the room, not looking at her. It made her more anxious, and she knew that she couldn’t afford to let relations between Laknos and Aurora Valley falter. The dark-haired young woman was not foolish enough to think that just because Deproeolior’s Lord had been an idiot that things could not change in the future. However, at this point in time, the Lady of Aurora Valley knew that what she needed to concentrate on was making sure that things did not deteriorate between Laknos and Aurora Valley. In all honesty, she felt that Stratos had been at fault, but then again, she would never have brought Titanus had she known about his history with the young Lord. She wasn’t sure what his reasons were for not telling her about it, and that was still a source of annoyance for the young Lady.

Bohren’s voice brought out of her reverie. Gia understood his frustration, and sympathized. She would not want their positions reversed. He was upset, and rightfully so. The entire incident had been a fiasco. “I know no more than what I heard last night,” she said. Her face was expressionless, and her voice was kept even and calm. “I knew that Titanus had spent time away from Aurora Valley. He told me as much himself.” The dark-haired young woman gave a sigh, and forced herself not to go into a tirade about why she’d hired Titanus. He didn’t ask about that. “You’re right when you said it wasn’t random. Titanus knew Stratos from his time outside of Aurora Valley. He conveniently left out that piece of information.” Anger flashed across her face for a moment. She still considered herself a good judge of character, and didn’t doubt Titanus’ loyalty in the least. “Had I known, I would not have brought him here.”

Gia did feel justified in making sure that Bohren knew that she was ignorant of the situation until Stratos had come up, threatening to kill Titanus. “Stratos came up, threatened to kill Titanus, who tried to be as polite as possible, and that was when I found out that they knew each other,” she explained further. She wasn’t sure exactly how much detail she should go in. Should she tell Bohren that Titanus had in fact taught Stratos? The dark-haired woman wasn’t sure about the details of that anyway. Stratos himself could have been out of Deproelior at the time, or Titanus could have been inside Deproelior. She wasn’t sure yet, because “proud to call you my student” was the only thing she had heard Titanus say regarding the matter. Should she say anymore until she herself knew more?

“I’m afraid I don’t know much more, since I haven’t spoken to Titanus today.” Oh, but she would later, and would he ever get a lecture of doing this to her and putting her in this position. It didn’t matter that Stratos had started it. Gia felt that she was telling as much of the truth as she knew right now. She didn’t want to hide anything from Bohren, and she honestly felt bad about what had happened. She wasn’t sure how exactly to punish Titanus from withholding information from her. “Believe me when I say that I plan to make sure that nothing like this ever happens again.” If that meant never taking Titanus anymore, so be it. If that meant he couldn’t do his job… well, Heads of Security could be replaced.

The young Lady wasn’t sure that she could easily replace him. Sure, there were Generals that were more than capable, but Titanus was a brilliant strategist. She hadn’t choosen him over older soldiers for no reason at all. She had her reasons, and she usually trusted her insincts. Part of her still did, but she planned to get information out of him first before making any decisions. “And as I said, had I known beforehand that Stratos hated him with a passion, rest assured I would not have brought him, for this reason precisely.” This entire situation looked so bad on her, she was so furious with Titanus, but she was confining her emotions until she had him in her sights.

[Devanus Zeller]

Gia had been as ignorant as Bohren had expected, and indeed hoped for; had she knowingly brought a conflict to his doorstep, Bohren would have been very tempted to declare Laknos officially no-man's-land for citizens of the other two cities. It was a politically dangerous move, of course, and it would effectively have declared war on both cities, but Bohren was just angry enough to do that. Or, perhaps more accurately, at this point he no longer believed that there was any reasonable chance for peace, nor that either of the warring cities deserved his support.

Fortunately, Bohren was ultimately a man of reason, and he also had all of his advisors to restrict his decision-making. No matter how enraged he was over the debacle the previous evening, there would be no declarations of war today. Instead, all he would give Gia was the same thing that he had given Radkal of Deproelior; a warning and justice. He may not have been able to hold Stratos in his prisons, but there would be someone stewing in his cells for the foreseeable future. The odds of it actually taming Stratos any were slim to none, but at least the young ruler would know that Bohren would not be walked over. If he crossed the line in Laknos again, then there would be consequences. Diplomatic immunity only extended so far.

For now, however, there was still the matter of Aurora Valley to attend to. It seemed, if Gia was to be believed, that the reports about the fight had been accurate, but that still placed quite a bit of the responsibility on Gia's shoulders. Personal knowledge of the leader of Deproelior was something that should be known if it was on the resume of one of the Heads of State of Aurora Valley, and Bohren found her ignorance unacceptable to the point of offense. "Forgive me for saying so, but perhaps you should vet your Heads more carefully in the future. In these times of war," Bohren paused here and gave a small chuckle. When had there not been a time of war? "As I was saying, it would be advantageous if you were more careful in that regard. Neither you nor I can control the actions of Lord Stratos, so we must be cautious in our own decisions." Bohren's language was diplomatic, but his message was perfectly clear.

Even now, it seemed, Gia knew nothing, and Bohren felt his frustration only grow with this increased utter lack of knowledge. "Did they speak before the fight? Is there any indication of how they knew one another or why Stratos wanted Titanus dead?" Gia had said that this would never happen again, but Bohren was more inclined to ensure that for his own peace of mind, rather than rely on her. After all, it was under the relaxing of his own guard that this annoyance was allowed to happen in the first place. It was true that it could have gone much, much worse than it had, and Bohren was not trying to make a mountain out of a molehill, but he also did not want this to be the crack in the dam. Stratos was new, and Bohren wanted this to the be last altercation like this as well as the first.

[Gia Trakana]

Gia nodded at Bohren’s words. He was right. It looked horrible on her that there was a big secret about her Head of Security that she didn’t know. It took every effort for her to keep the expression on her face straight. She was a very emotional person, and those emotions weren’t always pleasant. They didn’t always look good on her, like anger for instance. That was one of her worst emotions, and she was keeping it in check now, but only on the surface. Despite all that, she was still a diplomat, and the dark-haired woman knew that there was a time and a place for everything. This was time neither the time nor the place to express her anger or vent about it. She needed to be as calm, honest, and as diplomatic as possible.

“Yes, they did,” Gia replied, “or more precisely, Titanus spoke while Stratos was threatening to kill him.” She remembered the night’s event’s clearly. Part of her thought that she should hide this information from Bohren, but wasn’t that how all this started – because Titanus hid information from her? The Lady wouldn’t blame him if he didn’t want anything to do with either Aurora Valley or Deproelior after this debacle. However, even now she was a diplomat, and a politician. The dark-haired young woman knew that if there was any chance of salvaging relations between Aurora Valley and Laknos, she needed to be honest with Bohren. That meant admitting that her Head of Security had been the teacher of the current Ruler of Deproelior. That was a big thing for her not to know

“Titanus said that he had been Stratos’ teacher,” Gia said, and the tone in her voice said that she clearly how big a piece of information that was to not know. “I don’t know for how long, and I don’t know the circumstances.” She ran a hand through her hair, taking a deep breath to keep herself as calm as possible. “When I was looking for people to replace my late Head of Security, I found out everything I could about everyone that I was thinking about.” She felt at least some need to justify her actions. “No one really knew what he’d done while he was outside of Aurora Valley, so I asked Titanus. I thought he told him everything, it certainly seemed that way…” She shook her head. “Evidentially, I didn’t, and when the rumors about the new Lord of Deproelior came, he never said a word.”

Gia wanted to throw something or hit something, and she knew that she couldn’t do that right now. At the first given opportunity, she probably would. She had to do something, she felt like an idiot, and that wasn’t a feeling that she liked to have. “Anyway, so after Titanus dropped that little piece of information, he said that he was ‘truly sorry’ and then Stratos attacked it.” She needed a drink. It maybe early in the morning, but damn if she didn’t want a drink right now. Something so that she could make this entire experience disappear. Of course, getting drunk was a bad idea when you were the ruler of an entire city. Taking another deep breath, she simply sat there, not sure what else Bohren wanted to say. He still hadn’t said whether or not he was going to release Titanus.

[Devanus Zeller]

It was just as well that Bohren's staff was leaning against his desk, just out of arm's reach, because after Gia's reply, a younger, more impulsive Bohren would have snapped the wood in two over either his knee or her head. Over the years, he had grown to develop respect for the young leader, thinking that she had an old head on her shoulders, and was perhaps capable of steering this war in a more favourable direction, or at least not hastening to bring upon armegeddon. This mistake, however, this oversight was casting all of that into doubt. This was the sort of secret that would be embarrassing to discover on a mere citizen, but to find out now that her Head of Security had not only known Lord Stratos personally, but had been his teacher...that was just political suicide. Bohren had little doubt that Gia knew how much of a hole she had dug for herself, but that did not ease his own anger any. Whatever rapport she had build with him over the years had vanished in that one sentence.

The matter of what to do with Titanus now was becoming more and more delicate. Originally, Bohren had been inclined to release him, but he had been swiftly reminded that it would be politically disastrous to only punish one side for an altercation that involved both foreign cities, however much to blame Stratos was. Now, with this new information, Bohren was even less inclined to let him go, and he was beginning to see what he could actively charge him with. Titanus would surely plead self-defense if the charge was to do with the fight itself, but with the knowledge that Gia had given him, perhaps there was something else. Tapping his long fingers against his chin thoughtfully, Bohren abruptly stood straight up before bowing slightly in Gia's direction. "Forgive me, Lady Gia. I must take my leave of you for a moment. Please, make yourself comfortable. There is tea on the stand there if that is to your liking." He indicated the pot and cups with his hand, though Gia could hardly have missed them. "I shall be only a moment."

Without explaining further, Bohren bowed again and exited the room, walking swiftly down the halls. In no more than fifteen minutes, he had returned, quietly re-entering his chambers to see what Gia had gotten up to while he had been out. "My apologies for that. I had to have a question or two answered in light of this little revelation you provided. I am, after all, a politician, not a lawyer, and while the decisions in these diplomatic matters fall to me, it is in all of our interests if they have some legal backing. I'm sure you understand." Setting himself at his desk, Bohren snatched up his staff on the way by, leaning it across his lap as he tented his fingers and regarded his fellow leader.

"So, here is the crux of the matter. We have arrested and charged Lord Sratos. However, as a Lord, he enjoys certain diplomatic status privileges that prevents me from actually incarcerating him except in case of extreme violation of the law. Since neither he nor your Head nor anyone else was seriously hurt by the altercation last night, I have been forced to accept his Head of Security as a proxy. He will remain here and serve the sentence, and Lord Stratos will return home. However, he will not be welcome within these walls legally until the expiration of his sentence, and politically until long after that." Bohren allowed himself a breath. He had not needed to reveal that to Lady Gia, but given the discussion they now had to have, it was pertinent to know that she was not being treated unfairly.

"As for your man Titanus, the city of Laknos will formally charge him with disturbing the peace and endangering the public. I have you to thank for your honesty on that latter charge, since he could hardly have come here not knowing that Lord Stratos would be present. I will not have my people put in harm's way, no matter how personal the struggle may be." Here Bohren put his fist on the table rather forcefully before taking a moment to compose himself. "However, I am prepared to negotiate the length and conditions of his sentence, contingent upon the restitution that Aurora Valley is prepared to offer to resolve this diplomatic wrinkle."

[Gia Trakana]

OOC: Sorry!


Gia nodded as Bohren got up and left the room. She appreciated his offer of tea, though the young woman knew he was obligated to do so. It didn’t matter, because she was not interested. The young Lady wanted nothing more than to have a stiff drink and be home. She knew there was going to be repercussions from this, but she was not worried about her people’s views on the matter. As much as the dark-haired young woman hated hiding things from her people, unless Stratos announced the matter personally, she didn’t see that they would find out. First of all, she wanted to get Titanus’ point of view on the matter. She still wanted to hear what he had to say and what his reasons were for bringing down judgment. Nevertheless, she would not speak to him until after he was out of jail.

Gia knew that while he was in jail, there was a possibility for others to overhear. She wanted to make sure that there was no way anyone could overhear what was going on. She wasn’t sure what her decision on the matter would be, but firstly, the dark-haired young woman wanted to find out more information. If, at that point, she deemed him unworthy to further hold his position, so be it. She was not going to let her anger get the better of her. The Lady was still a diplomat, first and foremost. Yes, she had every right to feel anger and slighted, but anger should not have bearing on her judgment. Of course, that was easier said than done. Nevertheless, she would wait until Titanus returned home, and then speak to him. Once she had done that, then she would make a decision.

Gia’s thoughts where interrupted as Bohren came back into the room, explaining why he had left so suddenly. She nodded. “I understand.” Indeed, she did, for she herself was no lawyer, and relied on others with that knowledge to help her out when decisions required such knowledge. She listened as he went on, explaining the judgment of Lord Stratos, and found herself surprised when she found out that he had put his Head of Security – former it would seem – in jail for the young Lord’s crimes. She was fairly certain that most in Deproelior and Aurora Valley would be equally as surprised. The young Lady had no way of knowing if people in Laknos wouldn’t expect that from their ruler, or if they were equally surprised that he had put in an innocent man in jail for his leader’s crimes.

Gia, of course, understood completely. After all, Bohren was right – someone had to pay for Stratos’ actions, and as a ruler, he had diplomatic immunity. Of course, if he had actually hurt Titanus or anyone else, or even killed someone, that diplomatic immunity stopped. Luckily for the Lord of Deproelior, he had not. Not so lucky for Radkal, it would seem. The dark-haired woman almost felt sorry for the ex-Head of Security of Deproelior, but only almost. It was Stratos’ fault, and if anyone should feel sorry for it, it should be him. It had nothing to do with her at all. She only cared so far as this meant a new Head of Security, someone else whose name should have to learn and whom she would have to find out about. She wondered if Aura knew about this already, but quickly pushed it from her mind.

Gia nodded after Bohren had finished. “I understand completely,” she told him. This was troublesome. She had not realized that the Lord of Laknos wanted to keep Titanus in jail for longer than he already was. Yes, the dark-haired young woman expected some stay, but what he was proposing could last a while. Thinking quickly, the young Lady figured that she knew which way she would have to go on this matter. “Obviously, he should spend some time in jail for this.” Part of her almost thought he deserved, for she was still angry. “However, since no one was hurt, and indeed, I don’t even think any of your property was damaged, I recommend only a week in jail, maybe two. As for restitution… Aurora Valley is willing to negotiate whatever monetary value you think should be required for what has transpired. I will send whatever we decide upon back here as soon as I return home.”

[Devanus Zeller]

Part of Bohren was almost disappointed in Gia's response to his sentence. He was, after all, a politician, and he loved a good debate more than almost anything. Admittedly, he was holding all of the cards, but Gia had folded her hand before he had so much as placed a bet. A diplomatic strategy, perhaps, but it came across as a sign of weakness, and Bohren had to resist his natural urge to exploit that with a well-placed comment. Stratos may have been very talented with his fists, but this was Bohren's battleground, and Gia was proving to be a less than intimidating opponent. Still, Bohren was forced to remind himself that it was not his own interest that mattered here, but the well being of the city of Laknos and the sustainability of its neutrality in this matter.

Gia's proposed sentence was right in line with what was going to be his own opening volley. The charges were extremely open-ended, according to Laknos' chief justice, and could carry a sentence as long or short as it was deemed appropriate. This was both comforting and disquieting to Bohren, as it meant he had freedom, but also the potential to be lynched by his own people if they felt the sentence was too light, or indeed too heavy. Fortunately, the matter had been mostly quiet, though rumours did continually get around. "I agree. Two weeks should be sufficient time. Since I suspect that you are currently longing for home, you will be free to take your leave this evening and I will arrange for Titanus to be shipped back to you discreetly at the conclusion of his sentence." Whatever else he may have been, Bohren was no fool; if Deproelior learned of when and where Titanus was being transported, they would surely take advantage of it. Bohren would be having none of that; this was not his war, but this particular battle had started in Laknos territory, and he would see it through to the end.

Grasping his staff with one hand, Bohren positioned it vertically beside him, as if he might be about to lean on it to stand. He did not, however, actually rise. "I expect the city of Aurora Valley to compensate Laknos for the anticipated loss of income due to the lower attendance at the festival after the disturbance last night, as well as to cover the legal costs of trying and incarcerating your Head of Security. I don't have the exact numbers in front of me, but I will get them to you before you leave. Those are my terms." Bohren tapped his stick on the floor for emphasis before cracking the first smile he had given Gia since she entered. "I would also not be particularly opposed if some of your famous seaside dishes found their way into the shipment. I'm sure my staff would much prefer an aged wine, but what's the point in being ruler if you can't pull rank every now and again?"

If Gia's strategy with being agreeable had been with the intent to make Bohren lower his starting offer, it had succeeded. He could have easily demanded much more and not seemed terribly unreasonable, but he had come out with what had originally been his late bargaining position (aquatic cuisine excluded) in a show of good faith, and to make his mostly humourous request not be tempered by indignance over his other demands.

[Gia Trakana]

Gia nodded as Bohren said two weeks. Honestly, the young Lady was hoping for one, but she wasn’t about to press the matter. Yes, she was a diplomat, but she also knew that things could be a lot worse. If he was willing to go with her on this, then it was best that she just went with it. He was going to have Titanus shipped back to her after his sentence was up. She felt another wash of anger. It was all his fault that she was in this position that their city was in this position. She pushed her anger away again, as she was done with the old Lord, and she didn’t want to be distracted by her thoughts while she was with him. It didn’t mean she couldn’t still be angry about the whole ordeal. She only reminded herself that once she saw Titanus next, which wouldn’t be for a while evidentially, he would get a piece of her mind. She still wasn’t sure how she was going to handle it yet.

Gia listened as Bohren explained the restitution he wanted. Part of her was annoyed at his request, but the dark-haired young woman knew arguing with him would be pointless. If she wanted things to stays pleasant as possible, she needed to make sure that this got smoothed over as soon as possible. The dark-haired young woman also knew that he could have asked for more from her, and the young Lady would have been obligated to accept his offer, or debate with him until he agreed to something else. It was much easier just to let him keep the lower starting offer, and not try to argue with him to get even less. After all, he and his city had been the victims. Titanus and Stratos, representatives of the other two cities, had been the cause. He was by no means obligated to be lenient at all.

Gia nodded, and gave him a small smile as he mentioned seafood and wine. Her smile didn’t reach her eyes, but at least he had cracked a smile. “Your terms are agreeable,” she told him. “As for the seafood, I’m sure something can be arranged.” She paused for a moment as she considered his mention of the wine. She might throw some in just because, but he didn’t to know that at this juncture. After all, he had requested the seafood, not the wine. His staff wanted the wine, but she was not concerned about his staff right now. She also fought back her annoyance at him telling her when she could leave. Surely, he would be glad when she and every other foreigner were out of his hair. She fought back her snide comments, though. “I certainly understand, though. You should be allowed to pull rank if you choose.”

Gia wanted this whole fiasco to be over. She wanted the two weeks that Titanus was in jail to pass, and she wanted to be able to chew him out and attempt to get some decent answers. Bastard, he was, for putting her in this position, and she hated it. She still had not fully decided how she was going to punish him, if two weeks in jail wasn’t sufficient enough. “If there isn’t anything else, I’ll take your leave for the time being.” The dark-haired young woman decided to hold off her threats on her Head of Security for the time being. He was going to be in jail, and for now, that was enough. She would hang out at the festival until she got the numbers from Bohren, and then she would get out of here and go home.
