100% sincere. Also not sure where the Scion lackey even came from other than I considered Victacar and Messervy good help for Tribunal's enforcement. Re Shalsad, I don't want to reveal too much because he is still alive and well but I had my hands full with him and really at the end of the day could not control what he did. (Vindicator's authority is beyond the Provost in certain ways. But Marcatis is my witness, I did try to change things a bit.) Shalsa'ds methods were effective (and legit), but we disagreed on how we approached many things (looting being one). I did sincerely think that Battle and Tribunal could achieve some sort of a cease fire... which I think we did but there was a lot more unease than I had hoped for.

Woldrun was a great character. Looking forward to your next.
