Draiss had come to the conclusion, after the third similar story, that she had sensed the corruption, but unlike Niara, she hadn't known about Union, or hadn't been able to get there. Either way, her actions now made a bit more sense. It also made Ama's original suggestion to raze the villages completely wrong, something he would mention to her later. It also meant it was now time to get Niara out of the domain, and working to procure her own followers. Her fear of falling back into a tainted state would have to be ignored, for her own good. He could purge her again as the taint built up, and it wouldn't be nearly as painful or tiring for either side involved.
