"We must put an end to this." a man's voice boomed.
There were twelve elders seated at the table watching footage of Nita and Jabir striking their bargain. A unanimous scowl spread around the table, with each gentleman clearly unmoved by Nita's daring rescue.
"Agreed," they echoed.
"How do you propose we put an end to this unnatural friendship?"
"Simply telling these youngster to cease is not likely to solve our problem."
"No, we'll need something a bit more subtle."
"We could just kill the Payeh. He's of no use without his wings anyway. Plus we keep the guardian, she learns her lesson, and no other Payeh need find out Cecaelia exist."
The elders exchanged worried glances. They had never plotted to kill anyone before, it was not in their nature.
"I think that goes against our oath," one elder pointed out.
"Do you have another suggestion?" There was a long silence before the headstrong elder reclaimed the floor. "Let's put it to a vote. All those in favor of killing the Payeh?" He counted the raised hands, then moved on. "All those opposed?"
