He smirked at Elwyrr's question. "I DID mention that I had another obligation when I got your help, Elwyrr. She is of that one, and will see it done. But Meridia, you seem to underestimate the power an annoyed Fae can bring to bear. Don't do that, I would hate to see you suffer so. And I say annoyed, because that is the worst anyone has ever gotten a Fae and survived. For a given value of survived, of course.<br/><br/>Besides, how do you know this ISN'T connected? And I need to have an established, intact power base, and working with the Fae will allow me to get to your mission sooner. Besides, your superior DID say I had time when I told her about my more pressing obligation to the Fae Court, and wasn't too concerned about it interfering, but if you want, I am sure your complaint about it would override her previous comment if brought to her attention through the official channels."
