"That isn't going to be a problem, is it?" He understood the sentiment of many when it came to those who considered themselves 'rulers' on a large scale. He had a policy of honesty for most part (when it suited him to advance his plans); the truth was nothing more than a knife when used properly. However, many people looked to politicians with a cynical perspective, and how could he blame them with all the corruption, scandals and illegal activities.

He raised an eyebrow at the fact that this young man had the tiles counted and memorized, which seemed like a waste of talent by his measure. Think of the productivity such a bitter cynical outlook and tenacity to survive that could be set in the right direction.

"Wasted talent. Your masters clearly wanted a compliant muppet when they could have had so much more." He sighed and shook his head. "At least you are here now. So much change and so much adventure to be had if one was willing to take it."
