"Your return has been kept fairly quiet. News takes time to travel now, remember? To be honest, I only learned about it recently, and was waiting for full confirmation of the rumors before I reported it. If I reported<em>every</em>rumor I had make its way to me, you'd be haring off to the ass ends of the universe, in search of allies who aren't really there. It's my job to ensure you don't get fed false information, and I'm still picking through the reports, myself, trying to figure out what's reliable, and what isn't."
